Today is the day that the Christians celebrate the brutal toture and murder of their savior. I celebrated by torturing my screwed up left shoulder by cleaning and organizing. I will do more of the same tomorrow, before I bake massive amounts of cookies on Sunday.

I may venture out tomorrow to a store for a few treats for the girls, nothing elaborate, one wants 70% cacao chocolate, the other wants dark chocolate of some sort. Children after my own ❤!

WOW...you are so ambitious.

I love spring but I go through it when you can feel spring and it's not a particular day. you just feel it. I come alive but couldn't care less about easter.

Years ago I started a tradition of smoking a lot of cannabis all day long on religious holidays and referred to the practice as “going to church” when questioned by my (very religious) parents. I still call it that even though they are fully aware of what I mean.

Easter, like all other holidays, are just ploys to sell things.

I celebrate Hallmark Easter, because you know, candy.

wow! like your style, No I don't do easter though easter sunday is on april fools day, this year which might be ironic. I usually garden at this time of year in fact I am probably gardening any time of year we do have easter lilies here my neighbour has them . and I look after them for her.

I like this idea of a spring cleaning and changing of the seasons marker. Alas, in the frozen North winter is still holding on tight, although there are signs of spring coming. It will have to be candy for me until at least mid April

I wouldn't say I personally celebrated it, but I did always look forward to the family festivities. Things have changed now, and everyone is spread out, so I don't usually do anything for Easter now. I do like the idea of taking the opportunity to welcome springtime! I think that will be my plan this Sunday.

My sister in law was Italian and had the best Easter dinners with the family. She made manicotti by hand. Big meatballs, Sunday sauce. Died at age 45 of cancer. I miss her.

I don't care about it at all, just another long weekend to look forward to. I don't mind the food and stuff, but all the hokey religious crap my family does is just irritating when I would be dragged into it. Going to church, the dumb house blessing thing, and all the other little rituals are just silly. The priest of the parish would go to members houses with his assistants and some volunteers with this fancy cross and his annoying ass bell, come in and bless the house, have us all stand around and recite some prayer, and then we'd have a brief tea time before he'd move onto the next house. While the household stuff is brief, it's still not something I want to bother partaking in regardless of how harmless it is overall. But respectfully declining and staying out of the way is somehow rude or awful...go figure..
