With my family, trying to avoid eggs as much as possible.

Happy Easter to everyone on Fluther!

I don’t really consider Easter a real holiday. So eating pizza and watching Big Brother Canada.

I’ll be partying with a 2,000-year-old Jewish zombie and egg-laying rabbits.

I’m working. I don’t normally work Sundays but a coworker had an Easter thing so I offered to trade shifts with her.

My mom died in the autumn, 2016 so this Easter is an adjustment for us. My stepfather is a CPA/CFP and so he’s going crazy now finishing up with tax season. I wanted to drive down to visit him but it’s a 100 mile round trip, which is a far ride just to stop in to say hi. I am not sure what we’re doing. I got some Easter stuff from Pier 1 yesterday and it’s laid out. I have a feeling we’re just going to hang out today. Just returned from a week vacation for Spring Break so this is “get ready to go back to work and school” day, too.

Nothing specific. My culture does not celebrate Easter.

Going to Mass with my girlfriend, take some chocolate to my mom at her board and care home, go for a run before it rains, have a good midday breakfast. Then take my son to dinner tonight.

I just came in from planting some seeds and cleaning up around my fish pond.
I’m trying to get into spring, but we’ll probably have a freeze and everything will be killed.

Nice brunch by the water with family. I ate far too much prime rib, but I got to see the Easter Bunny, so yay.

Hanging around the house with my husband. Ate some leftovers for lunch. Went to the pool for an hour. I might go out to dinner, I’m not sure. I should go to the supermarket, I’m really low on food. I forgot the grocery store I prefer would likely be closed on Easter—and it is—but I might go a different on. We’ll see if I muster the energy. Tomorrow candy will be on sale, so maybe I’ll wait for tomorrow. If I go to the supermarket I’ll likely stop by the town square, because tonight is the really fun DJ.

Washing random stuff in the washing machine. Fluthering. Cleaning the deck. Facebooking. Cooking breakfast. Words With Friends. Cleaning. Fluthering.
We had our Easter stuff yesterday with my son and his wife and 4 kids. It was great!

Here I am, cursing myself for starting “13 Reasons Why”. Now I can’t stop.

LuckyGuy's avatar

@tinyfaery i started that last week and gave up after the first episode. I just couldn’t get into it.
Let me know if it gets better.

JLeslie's avatar

Well, I didn’t go to the supermarket or the DJ. I am watching a tribute to The Bee Gees, and fought with my husband for half an hour. Lol. Not a bad fight, but annoying anyway.

cookieman's avatar

^^ Ooh, I watched the BeeGees tribute too. It was pretty great.

We went to visit a family who have two daughters. That was about mid-afternoon. It was in the 80’s here in southern NY, so it was really like summertime. After that, around 5 we drove to visit friends who invited us for dinner. We visit them often. We left around 9. By then, a big rain storm came and cooled everything off. This is a great time of year – not too cold, not too hot. We save on electricity because the house doesn’t need to be heated but doesn’t need air conditioning or a fan, either.

Hubby took me out to dinner after work. The food was good, but the entire waitstaff was high as a damn satellite. They couldn’t figure out how to seat people, we were given someone else’s food twice, they messed up Ian’s order, and we never even got the water we asked for. Our waitress kept calling us “Good Eaters” and suggesting how much our stuff was making her hungry.

It would have been hilarious if it was a skit on TV and not my food being messed with.

When I gave my first response I didn’t know we were going to be invited to dinner by my husband’s daughter.
So, this Easter we had dinner at my son’s on Saturday, and dinner at my step-daughter’s on Sunday. We rarely eat at other people’s houses and I thought about @tinyfaery‘s vegan question a lot because I didn’t care for some of the stuff that was served. Filled up on what I did care for, though.
Hubs kind of pissed me off. His daughter served some sort of potato dish. She’s made it before, and I don’t like it, so I didn’t put any on my place. At the table my husband kept saying “These potatoes are so GOOD! Why didn’t you get any, Val? Aren’t they good?” Really put me on the spot right in front of the hostess. At first I just nodded my head quietly, but he persisted so finally I just quietly glared at him until he shut up.
