Thanks to a friend that I worked with over ten years ago, Dave Horne left a bag of Cadbury Mini Eggs on my desk. I was forever hooked. Even more so when I discovered that they are only available during the Easter season. Excitement is certainly in the air when I hear the sound of birds chirping, the sight of grass peaking through the melting snow and the task of setting the clocks...Spring ahead!
But nothing can match the feeling of purchasing my first bag of mini eggs. This year it was a mini bag of mini eggs from Walgreens as my tight budget doesn't allow for spending such as chocolate covered candies. It is not a necessity but definitely a treat! I think it is even more a delight as they only appear as a reminder of good things to come!

i, as well, love these things! i think they might be my favorite thing about Easter.....well except for the whole...Jesus dying on the cross for the sins of mankind and rising from the dead three days later to claim defeat over death...thing
were you eating these while you were emailing me today about chocolate?
oh to have but a taste....
Mmmmm.... Easter candy...
And at least one bonus to an early Easter... earlier Easter candy sales!
Do you dig marshmallow? My personal weakness at this time of year is the chocolate-covered marshmallow eggs. Russell Stover makes 'em best, though a number of companies have comparable substitutes. Mmmmmmmmm...... you can bet I'm hitting up Walgreens Monday morning for some discounted Easter candy.
