The Easter Bunny was kind enough to hide specific colored eggs for me and different colors for my brother and leave a list of how many of each kind we were to find. (Our Easter Bunny was way more organized than I am.) Normally, we had no problem finding the Easter eggs, but one year there was an egg that eluded us. We searched for two hours before getting ready for church. We searched after coming home from church. The rest of the family who arrived for Easter dinner helped in the search. No luck. After dinner, Dad went into the family room to relax, sat down in a chair and we all heard a loud crunch. I guess we would have found the egg sooner had we all decided to give up looking and just take a seat!Joelle Charbonneauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13608552691748018256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-38366351321134304372012-04-03T17:14:10.309-04:002012-04-03T17:14:10.309-04:00I always look forward to Good Friday--not for any ...I always look forward to Good Friday--not for any religious reason---but because I was born on Good Friday many, many years ago so I always say I'm especially good because of it.

As a kid, it was the Easter Egg hunt and wearing our new outfits to church. Now we go to the Easter sunrise service at church, a breakfast afterwards--then the regular routine--teaching Sunday School and going to church. This year I'm having everyone over for beef stroganoff. Weird choice for Easter, I know, but was requested by one of my daughters.Marilyn Meredith a.k.a. F. M.

Inevitably my Dad would tease my Mom for making "cannonballs," all the while we would all be scarfing them down-I'm talking about matzo ball soup, of course. I loved them. My mother was the glue that held the family together. Today we are spread out all over, and my parents are gone, but not from my memory-I miss them.lil Glucksternhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09288522126331817172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-60774962592057142012012-04-02T20:04:51.483-04:002012-04-02T20:04:51.483-04:00Dear KATREADER,

It is truly my favorite Holy Day of the year, thanks for bringing up such a special memory for me! Have a happy Easter!Maureen Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01825595311970223353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-86392215472937809082012-04-02T20:00:57.812-04:002012-04-02T20:00:57.812-04:00My favorite Easter memories are of the huge supper...My favorite Easter memories are of the huge suppers at my Grandmother's house after Church. All 16 of us cousins would be gathered, the boys giving he** to the girls. When we were seated at the "kids table" the boys would take peas and out them in our soda saying they were martinis (do you think our parents drank a little too much?!). LOL!<br /><br />My favorite Seder memory is when my friends invited me to their house to experience my first Seder.. I was in middle school, so I was about 13. I had no idea what to expect and was fascinated by all the traditions. I ate the bitter herbs and everyone laughed at me. They made sure I found some Matzoh so I got my $1! It was a wonderful experience and I learned a lot about the Jewish faith that day.<br /><br />I would be thrilled to win a copy of Zoned for Murder.

Also love the tradition of going to seven churches (we used to do something similar on Yom Kippur, since it was such a long day and we'd walk from synagogue to synagogue).<br /><br />Have a wonderful holiday!Evelyn Davidhttp://www.evelyndavid.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-78313785830185834162012-04-02T12:53:46.136-04:002012-04-02T12:53:46.136-04:00One of my favorite Easter traditions as a kid was ...One of my favorite Easter traditions as a kid was Good Friday. My parents, Aunt Bert, and I, sometimes with a friend, would visit 7 churches with a final stop at the Broadway Market to get fresh bread, meats, horseradish, pussy willows and more! I'll never forget one time I found a dog in a church parking lot-we played and I got dog slobber all over my hands. So I cleaned them...in the holy water font in the church!
