Today's Activities

Hope you all had a wonderful Sunday afternoon. We finally got laundry done after it got bumped twice because of bad weather. We have to walk across the parking lot to the laundry room and the parking lot was partially flooded. This morning it was cleared up enough that I could get the laundry done.

For our Sunday lunch, we had ham, white mashed potatoes, and sweet potatoes, corn, dressing and cranberry sauce. That is my daughter's favorite so it was added. I got her a cute stuffed rabbit with a Hershey Chocolate bar. She loved it. Of course, no Easter is complete without Cadbury Eggs. I remember when they came out and I still like them. My favorite is the caramel. My daughter prefers the original. Now we also have Reese's eggs which aren't really that special when you think about. It's just the same peanut butter and chocolate cup-shaped into an egg.

Over the last couple of years, I have done a lot of research on these holidays and why we really celebrate them. What I have found blew my mind. Nothing is what we have been told. I will share that later. As a response, I have trimmed down how much we actually celebrate these holidays. For Christmas last year, we each got three items. In memory of the three gifts which Christ received after his birth. I have done the same for Easter and Valentine's Day.

Wednesday I will be posting the pics of the jars on my facebook. I will share the link with you all in hopes that someone knows the history of the design of the jars.
