Who made these dishes for you, and how did that make you feel?
I’m not religious at all … and I don’t think the Easter Bunny is either. No chocolate eggs? Hello?
A traditional family dinner on Easter doesn’t necessarily have to be religious in significance.

When I was a young child, my family wasn’t religious but we did celebrate holidays. Not much religious connotation. My sister and I would wake up and find muddy bunny paw prints all over the place. My parents used my cats paws for that.

My grandmother made breakfast to dinner every holiday, i felt special because my grand would go out of her way to make what you want these are three of the family easter dish
