Isn't it amazing how we ate room temperature (or warmer) hard boiled eggs that hadn't been refrigerated in quite some time but didn't get sick?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, and I rode a bicycle without a helmet, sat in the front seat of a car when I was under 80 pounds (I don't think I ever wore a seat belt until I was in my 30s), climbed trees, and all kinds of other dangerous stuff. It's a wonder I have lived so long.
 
Easter is just another "holiday" for me, although my wife is a practising catholic.
Tomorrow I´m taking the whole tribe (wife, 3 sons, wives and grandson) down to visit my folks.
Bought some of these for the old dear - she´ll love them, especially since I bought them in Fortnum & Mason´s. My dad will also enjoy them, but I doubt he´ll know what they are.
Hot Cross Buns, for me?
Take ´em or leave ´em.

Sounds similar to my Easter Celebrations. I'm down to my last pair of clean underwear, so I may partake in the holy sacrament of laundry.

Wings sound like a good idea. Toss them on the grill (bbq) this time, instead of fried.

Hot cross buns (mainly for me) and a specialty item for MrsT - a blackberry cobbler cream puff, of sorts.

I want to point out that I assumed the bottom of that cream puff was just choux pastry, since it had that sugary crackle on it and the blob of buttercream, but no. It was filled with blackberry custard.

Blackberry. Custard.

Windigo - I love that little butter bunny! Did you buy that or do you have a mold for that and you do it yourself?

I would love to own such a mold, but no, I have never seen one for sale. However, these bunnies are a standard feature in supermarkets around this time so I always buy one because it looks so magical.

I have recently bought these lucky fish pudding molds:

Those are usually available around Chinese new year. I will see if I can find a bunny mold, if I do I'll let you know!
