The Victorian Easter Bunny

[mofederal]

I don't think you are ever too old for Easter baskets. Just throw in a few bottles or cans of beer. I remember in the old days Easter baskets were a homemade affair, less store bought items then. Coloring Easter eggs was also a great treat I remember well. Small joys.

I love to color eggs. Been doing it for so many years. Had so much fun as child doing them and even more fun when did them with my children. Love all the wonderful memories.

Druid? Celtic? Roman? Visigoths? Gauls?

Ishtar> pronounced Eoster/Easter Mesopotamian Pantheon . Goddess of procreation hence the rabbits and eggs.

There is a video on Utube on how to marblize the eggs you want to color.believe it or not you use shaving cream and about 5 different food colors.so simple,so cool.

Have any of you colored eggs this year? My daughter and son have for their children and put Easter baskets together for them. Hope many do even though have to be just with your own immediate family.

Yes, I have things for the baskets. And I have just sent my son off to boil some eggs. They will do about a half dozen. Since I can not eat eggs anymore, I will just have to be satified with "egg beaters" in the morning, with cheese and salsa!

Thought I'd bump this thread since Easter is quickly approaching.

Bought our Easter candy today.

This is bad,more now to hear how the germans did everything first.

Lol, may have created the tooth fairy also.

I don't do much for Easter anymore, and I have to admit it isn't my favorite holiday...I've seen some massively creepy Easter bunnies.

Tis the time of year to break out the castiron Lamb Cake mold aand get to baking! i did one for my folks this last week. Turned out ok, had to icing the nose back on, but what else is new! Wish I could find the Griswold bunny mold..last one I saw was outrageously priced.

I'd be interested in seeing a picture of your cake mold, just out of sheer curiosity. I enjoy cast iron cooking, but it never occurred to me that such molds were ever available.

 

[donna]

Would like to see too and your cake when done.

 

[Mrs. V]

Lamb cake all decked out from last year.
