We grew up really poor and any holiday was hard on my mother and grandmother to live up to. There were so many holidays that weren’t celebrated simply because we could not afford it. But Easter was not one of them. On one Easter that I remember vividly, my brother and I awoke to find two beautiful Easter baskets. My grandmother had saved two very large Clorox bottles. She then crocheted a beautiful design over it out of yarn. Mine was pink and my brother’s was blue. She filled both with artificial green grass and lots of candy. But the most special part was tucked safely inside….it was a very large piece of fudge that she had stayed awake most of the night making and wrapped in shiny yellow cellophane. I will always remember that Easter and, of course, the yummy fudge!

My wonderful memory was just last year when I saw the look on my 2 grandchildren’s faces when they were led out to the grass area where colorful plastic, gold and silver eggs, full of little delicious candies were hidden for them to find. It took over an hour to fill the eggs with every kind of chocolate, marshmallow and chewy candy they loved… and me too since I was going to help them eat it all. :)

I have been overweight all my life(not so much now) and my favorite Easter was the year I had, as a kid, been dieting and that one year my mom let me have a big Easter basket filled with chocolate candy!! I was in heaven. Course when it was gone, there was NO MORE for what seems like forever. I am still a choc-o-holic but now I can buy my own whenever I want. I still eat some chocolate everyday!

My favorite memory is always getting peeps. My Easter bunny never left them in the package, so plastic easter grass always got stuck to them, they were good anyway.

Every morning on every Easter we would wake up to find that tinfoil covered oval chocolates had been hidden all over the house and we still do even though me and my sister are in our twenties. I don’t think I have ever hunted for eggs outside but this is Canada after all so that would be too cold most likely. My favourite candy memory for Easter is that in addition to the eggs we would get a giant chocolate rabbit that would end up sitting in the freezer because it was way too big to consume in one sitting. The rest of the year we would go out to the freezer every so often and smash off a frozen chunk of delicious mockolate bunny as a treat until next Easter when we got a new one again. 

My most memorable Easter My parents left me to spend the weedend with some of my mom’s friends. I was about five years old. Their oldest son told me there was no Easter bunny, Santa or Tooth fairy. I look back now and think about how mean that boy was. He was quite a bit older than I and should have known better!

I remember I hated jelly beans back then. Now I love them! And I always liked the hollow sugar egg with a scene inside. Remember those?

Instead of purchasing a chocolate rabbit, my mother once bought a two pound, hollow chocolate Garfield the cat. I loved Garfield and that big hunk of chocolate was amazing! Our entire family shared it!

As a lifelong “candy freak” of course I loved Easter … the holiday that involved an entire basket of candy! I adored Peeps as a child, with the delicious pastel sugar coating. (Now I’m more of a chocolate candy girl.)
