It's not just because Easter is centered around an infamous bunny and his/her (I'm not sure about the Easter bunny's gender) chocolate eggs. It has a lot more to do with the coinciding transformations from brown to bright green and bare to speckled with delicate buds in the world around. Easter heralds the arrival of robins hunting for worms, bright yellow daffodils and cute open toed sandals.
There's no heavy meal laden with gravy, mashed potatoes and stuffing, nor is there the stress of purchasing gifts for family and friends. Just stock up on cadbury cream eggs and peeps, and you're all set.
To celebrate Easter, the little rabbit is keeping it simple this year with iced butter cookies and mini orange chiffon cakes. Nothing rich and heavy, just some light desserts to welcome the arrival of the robins, daffodils and all things Spring.
