I affectionately refer to Easter as Zombie Jesus Day, but to avoid offending anyone further, I’ll only mention it that once. Happy Easter, Peeps! [Like my play on words there?]

Above is a photo of some of the eggs we colored tonight. Shortly after, I dropped the one I made for Sean and cracked it. I felt bad because it was his egg. Anywho, our eggs are pretty ugly. I mean, there is really only so much you can do to decorate an egg, especially with mediocre dye.

Our “pink” dye turned out terrible because the instructions said to not use vinegar on the pink, so I didn’t, but it turned out that the pink bowl was actually orange. Someone at the Easter egg coloring school was color blind apparently. By far, blue and green were the best dyes.

I wasn’t planning on doing any Easter baskets this year for Sean or anyone, but at the last moment I decided, ‘what the heck?’ I got this cute dark brown wicker laundry type basket to use as the Easter basket, but honestly, I had ulterior motives because I plan to use the basket as home decor when the house is built. The grocery store seemed to have been hit pretty damn hard with Easter shoppers because I couldn’t find any Easter candy. I am not even joking. All I was able to get was a bag of mini Reese’s and some Twizzlers, pretty sad. No peeps, no peanut butter eggs, nothing!

Considering Sean is only 17 months old, I decided to make a family Easter basket. I did the best with what I had to work with because of my extremely last minute decision to do a basket — wicker basket, stuffed bunny, Reese’s cups, Twizzlers and a DVD, Bedtime Stories.
