I know it's over a week past, but this Easter was too great not to share:
 |
| Upon arriving home for the holiday, I was greeted by none other than, the East "R" man!! Sure, the Easter bunny may go to most homes, but at my house, the East "R" man comes to visit. Okay, actually, the East "R" man, fashioned in old fishing waiters, a nice canvas coat, swimming flippers, Coke-bottle glasses, homemade tootoo, 1990's ball cap, holiday lights, and kazoo lips, was a Christmas creation by our dear family friends, the Savages. So in keeping with the tradition of exchanging one of a kind, quality presents, Dad decided to doll up the "R" man, and pay the Savage's an Easter visit. Rosie (the puppy) is terrified of him, and was glad to see him go. |

| Easter Basket Coconut cupcakes made with cream cheese frosting, dyed coconut, jelly bellies and coconut milk. They tasted even better than they look! |
 |
| A staple of every Child Easter dinner, deviled eggs; compliments of the hens in the backyard. |
 |
| All I can say, is the Easter bunny knows me well. An Easter basket of kale and chocolate! Also included in the basket were baby carrots,squash, zucchini, eggplant.....and lots of chocolate of course. |
And to end this post with some sort of nutritional advice:
 |
| What NOT to eat: PEEPS!!!! |
 |
| What TO eat: FRUIT!!!!! |
Substantial nutritional posts soon to follow!
wait a minute, how come no one told about the East "R" bunny??? That is awesome! I bet the Savages had all the easter dreams come true! Also, I would appreciate it if you wouldn't publish such slander against Peeps. They are far to yummy to take any sort of criticism. And, just so you know, I was at Wal-Mart this morning, and THEY DON'T SELL KALE!!! I don't know why this was such a shock to me, Wal-Mart isn't known for it's fabulous produce selection. But, I was sad, because now i have to drag my kids into another store to find some. Love your posts!
ReplyDeleteMy dad will be honored that the East "R" bunny made it on your blog. I will make him eat some kale before I show him. Glad I got to see this blog, I will be checking it often I feel like!
ReplyDeleteAt last! I've been searching for a reason to stop supporting Wal-Mart, and now I've found one! They don't sell Kale! :) Oh and Annie, I would like to add an * to my anti-peep comment. See as follows:
ReplyDelete* Avoid the consumption of peeps. Unless they are covered in dark chocolate!!
Abby I'm so glad you saw the picture of the East "R" man! It's about time some of our family creations get published!
