Personally, the religious aspect is more important to me - I would argue that it is a more significant time in the Christian calendar than Christmas.....and I certainly agree with the comment that the supermarkets hype the idea out of all proportion.... Hot Cross Buns available pretty much all the year round - and in so many different flavours! (I will admit to having had a M&S cheese Hot Cross Bun...and it was scrummy!!!)...and the number of chocolate items that are packaged up as Easter Specials! I can accept eggs and bunnies (although I have been known to stamp my little foot and proclaim that it is an Easter HARE not an Easter Rabbit....but that is my background...I also don't believe Santa has reindeers - he has a donkey!) maybe even a chocolate Easter Chick....but Easter Pigs? Easter Teddy Bears? Easter Monkeys????( all of which I have seen cast in chocolate this year)

The only religion that these monstrosities have been created for is the religion of money. Fight back! Make a load of chocolate Donald Trumps and give them to your friends!

[a horrid* thought occurs to me: maybe someone already has?]

* Actually, in Trump-speak, I guess that should be 'horrible, horrible'?

Hi,


So, would a wee chocolate Easter egg, dipped in batter and deep fried work?

Be a change from 'traditional'.

Extra calories, and saturated fats are allowed for Easter.

I have battered and deep fried the contents of a cadburys heroes tub

It was a quiet night and the oil was being changed the following day

They were all quite yummy believe it or not

Full Boxing Day spread here!

I was in hospital in Miami and didn't even get a sniff of an American Xmas dinner, let alone a British one, over Christmas; can't do too much at once as still recuperating, so a cold spread ( turkey, a ham, stuffing, bacon rolls, sausage meat balls, salad, jacket spuds followed by Xmas puds and trifles!) will enable me to take my time prepping it.

All the family and some friends coming to celebrate Easter AND me being here! ��
