Vegan chocolate bunny success!
I wanted to review the "No Whey! Foods" chocolate bunny for vegans while
there is still time for you to place an order and receive it by Easter.
Both my daughter and her husband are vegans. Finding good chocolate items for them is quite difficult since they don't use any milk or dairy products.
I wanted to send them a special Easter treat this year, so I went in search of a vegan chocolate bunny, which was my daughter's favorite Easter basket item when she was a child. After checking several stores, I finally found one that had a lot of positive feedback. I sent two chocolate bunnies to them.
My daughter said these chocolate bunnies were fantastic, better than any
she had ever had. She promptly sent her dad a picture of the ears
bitten off the bunny. Biting the ears off their chocolate bunnies
together was a father-daughter Easter tradition when she was a child.
I was so glad to find an Easter chocolate bunny made especially for
vegans. The chocolate bunny maker, No Whey Foods, has other vegan
products too. Now that we have discovered them, perhaps we will find
more treats in their product line.
I was searching for a chocolate bunny for vegans, but this product would appeal to others as well.
Ingredients
Based on my daughter's opinion, I would highly recommend the No Whey! Foods chocolate bunny.

I love potato salad. It is one of my favorite side dishes, especially when served with sliced ham. In fact, I will eat only the potato salad for lunch or dinner.
Because it is so easy to make, I like to use the dyed Easter eggs each year in potato salad. Plain boiled eggs are likely to sit in our refrigerator and spoil before we eat them. Therefore, I will make a potato salad with the eggs. There is no reason to waste them.
While it might seem sad to crack and dispose of the beautifully dyed egg shells, I hate throwing the whole eggs away more several days later. So, I use them. It is a win-win situation then. We have the pleasure of dying the eggs, or watching the eggs being dyed, and then making a lovely side dish for Easter dinner with the eggs.
Potato salad is a dish my family has been making for my entire life, throughout several generations. Both of my grandmothers made potato salad, but it was my own mother that taught me how to make it.
I have found in cooking, everyone has their own little "signature tweek" to family recipes that sets them apart slightly from others. One family member may add a touch of sugar, while another might use more or less of a specific ingredient. What we all have in common with how we make potato salad, we all use boiled eggs and potatoes!
I make a very basic potato salad recipe in our home. Anyone that desires an additional ingredient can simply add it to their own individual serving.
Cut the potatoes and eggs into chucks. Stir in the mustard, mayonnaise, salt & pepper. Cover & Refrigerate
*Boil red potatoes by covering the potatoes with water, bring it to a boil,
then turning them down to a low boil and cook for 45 minutes. You know
they are done when a fork will go into them easily.
Optional Ingredients: bacon pieces, diced celery, chopped dill pickles, sweet pickle relish, diced onion, or garlic salt.
These are the optional ingredients I have heard of. How about you? Have you tried other optional ingredients that could be included in this list?

Spring is such a refreshing and vibrant season and what better way to celebrate it than by creating a stunning tablescape for Easter and other springtime events? With a few simple touches, you can make your guests feel warmly welcomed and surrounded by beauty.
To start off, it's important to choose your color scheme wisely. While pastels are a popular choice for Easter, you can also opt for bold and bright hues that capture the energy and vitality of spring. Think of blooming flowers and fresh leaves as inspiration for your color palette. Also, consider how your choice matches the room.
Table Linens - Which Colors and Styles Would Work Best For Your Space
Once you have your colors, you can select your table linens. A classic, crisp white tablecloth always works, but you can also experiment with patterned or textured fabrics to add depth and interest. Try using a table runner or placemats in a complementary color to create a layered effect.
Add a Beautiful Centerpiece
The next step is to add your centerpiece. For Easter, a lovely traditional floral arrangement is perfect. Consider including springtime blooms such as tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths in a mix of pastel hues. You can also incorporate some greenery, like ferns or eucalyptus, to add texture and fullness.
Consider Accessories to Compliment the Table Setting
To add a personal touch to your tablescape, consider adding small details like place cards, napkin rings, or even decorative eggs. These little touches will make your guests feel extra special and bring even more charm to your setting.
Don't Forget About the Lighting
Lastly, lighting is important to keep in mind. Soft and warm lighting creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere, while brighter lighting adds energy and vibrancy. You could use candles or string lights to create a soft, warm glow that enhances the beauty of your table.
Creating a gorgeous spring tablescape is all about capturing the essence of the season and infusing your own personal style. With a little creativity and attention to detail, you can create a setting that is both breathtaking and welcoming. Embrace the season of renewal and let your imagination run wild.
Here are several product ideas to help you get that decor thinking cap going!

What: National Lego Day
When: January 28
Attention all Lego fans! And I think anyone born after 1962 ARE fans!
As we celebrate the yearly holiday of National Lego Day, the year 2022 was extra-special as we celebrated the 90th birthday of LEGO. Lego was invented in Denmark in 1932 and this fascinating building toy as we know it today was introduced to the United States in 1962. Most of you enjoyed playing and building with Legos as children. Many of you have continued your interest into adulthood. Or, if you won't admit to your grown-up self that you still love playing with Legos, you can easily hide your 'fandom' by 'helping' your children and/or grandchildren build their latest set.
The writers on Review This! have written reviews of many Lego sets, from small ones to very large ones. In case you have missed any, I give you this compilation to check out many of the favorites which are on the market today.
