They all represent the celebration of new life and spring, which make them most appropriate for our Easter celebrations.
Making Special Memories While Making Special Easter Treats
In our home, everyone gets involved in making special Easter treats. One of my all time favorite Easter memories was actually when my son was in college. He called to ask if he could come home for the weekend before Easter, bring a friend and make Easter cupcakes for a charity bake sale.
There are many reasons why that request thrilled my soul, all of which I am sure any mother of college age children could understand. I had a wonderful time drinking coffee, taking pictures and watching the guys "create" their special Easter treats. It is truly amazing what all you can learn about your children if you simply listen to their conversation while they decorate cupcakes.
The faces they put on the Easter bunny and lamb cupcakes were simply downright hilarious. Needless to say, their cupcakes sold out at the bake sale and I never even got to taste one myself, but I know for a fact, they were delightful.
