Now that Christmas is over, can Easter be very far behind? Not sure about other countries, but here we shall soon be seeing Easter Eggs in the shops along with hot cross buns. It would be nice if they could leave these things to a few weeks before Easter [grumble, grumble.]:mad:
 

Here is the first spotted Easter egg!:)

Like Valentine's Day cause wife and I go out for a nice dinner that night.

Now, as far as Easter goes, looking VERY forward to that holiday! Why? Well, that will mean Daylight Savings Time is going, our temps are warming up nicely and boating season has started!

Yes, I would agree, except the Cadbury's cream egg is NOT good chocolate!;)

Egg Zakly! - article says Cadbury has even changed recipe so it's worse than ever. But these little dainties are usually first in the shops here right after valentines, heck they might even be there right now. :)

We have to first get the heart shaped chocolates flooding the shelves before we start on the easter eggs here in the states, but, I'm sure the bunnies and eggs will be following in a matter of weeks. But for now Cupid is dancing through the isle.
 
Walmart always outrageously anticipates every holiday so I'll check the next time I'm in. In general the Easter egg seems to be loosing its currency in American culture. I remember as a child what a big deal coloring the eggs was and every year my father would create a new character for out Easter egg collection. . . a clown with a jelly bean nose and a funny hat was my favorite.
Someone please remind what the name of the egg coloring kit. . . . was it Haas?
 
It's funny that the Easter colored hard boiled eggs always tasted so much better than uncolored boiled eggs. We ate them with our Easter brunch after church on Easter Sunday.
 
Cookie, I so agree, seems those eggs always tasted so much better; the mind sure does funny things. I've had that thought many times over the years though.
