Easter Bunny Cake

How to Make an Easter Bunny Cake
by Monica Resinger

The Easter bunny cakes that you can buy from the bakeries in grocery stores
can be quite expensive; by making your own, you'll save money. Here's how.

You'll need:

any flavor cake mix
a round cake pan
white frosting (purchased or homemade)
stiff construction paper in white, black and pink
glue

Optional:
Easter grass
jellybeans
shredded coconut

Directions: Prepare the cake mix according to package directions and bake it
in the round cake pan. Most cake mixes make enough batter for two round cake
pans; therefore you can make two bunny cakes or make cupcakes with the rest of
the batter if you only want to make one bunny cake. After the cake has cooled,
remove it from the pan and cut the circle in half. With white frosting, frost
the bottom of one of the halves generously, then stand the two halves up on
their cut side on a plate or cake stand and push the two bottoms together so
the frosting is in the middle holding them together. Now frost the whole thing.
It should look like a half circle standing on a plate; this is the body of
the bunny.

For the eyes, cut two round circles out of white construction paper, then two
smaller circles out of black construction paper and glue each black circle
onto a white circle. Stick the eyes onto the frosting on the front of the bunny
body (one of the narrow ends).

For the ears, cut bunny ear shapes, in proportion with the body, out of white
construction paper. Cut smaller bunny ear shapes out of the pink construction
paper and glue them onto the white ones to make the center of the ear. When
glue has dried, insert the bottom of the ears into the frosting about an inch
above the eyes.

For further decoration, lay Easter grass around the cake, place jellybeans on
top of the grass and put coconut on the frosting of the cake as bunny hair.
This cake makes a nice centerpiece for your table. Use it with a vase of in
season flowers and there you have it.

Tips For Buying Easter Lilies
Gray Rollins

Give the gift of Easter lilies

Easter lilies are one of the most popular of all holiday plants. They are gorgeous little flowers that will bring joy into the home of anyone who is lucky enough to receive them. If your home needs a little oomph this year then pick up some Easter lilies and if you are invited to an Easter dinner or Easter party, consider bringing along some Easter lilies to give as a hostess gift. They will simply light up the room!

What makes Easter lilies so wonderful is their complete versatility. You can grow your Easter lilies in your home for as long as you want, you do not ever have to plant them outside if you don’t want to. But if you do decide that your garden
would be better for the Easter lilies then you can simply plant them in the garden when the weather gets a little warmer. They will change the entire look and feel of your garden. They will add a light and airy feeling filled with love and hope. That is the magic of Easter lilies and why so many people have fallen in love with their lovely little trumpets over the years. http://www.youreaster.com/easterlily/

So how do you choose the Easter lilies that are right for you or someone close to you? It is easy, follow the steps below and always come away from the store with the perfect Easter lilies for any occasion.

Look for lots of healthy green leaves.

The more leaves that the Easter lilies have on the plant the healthier they are going to be. These leaves should be plentiful all around the plant and should go right down to where the Easter lilies meet the potting soil in the pot.

Do not choose the Easter lilies with the already blooming flowers.

Many people make the mistake of choosing the Easter lilies that already have many open buds. Try to choose one with a couple opened and even more unopened. This way you will be able to enjoy your Easter lilies much longer. If you buy them already bloomed in a couple of days those will have died and there will be no buds to take their place.

Choose the Easter lilies that look good on all sides

Try to choose the Easter lilies that look just as pretty from the back as they do from the front. This is the best way to choose the Easter lilies that are right for you this year.

When Is Easter And Why Does It Always Change?
By Gray Rollins

When Is Easter? This has always been a very good question
because there was a time when Easter was moved around from day
to day. The pagan celebration of Easter occurred each year at
the same time that the Christians were celebrating the
miraculous resurrection of their savior Jesus Christ. This was
during the spring equinox. Some of the pagan beliefs centered
around Attis while others were more concerned with the coming
of the spring. But each year Easter was celebrated on a
different day of the week, sometimes it was a Sunday, others a
Monday, it has even been on a Friday and a Saturday. This was a
very long time ago, only about 300 or so years after Jesus died.

At about that time people decided that it might be a better
idea to have Easter occur on the same day of the week each year
and so it was written. This meeting happened between Constantine
and some of the other important people of the times in 325 AD.
And ever since then Easter has been on a Sunday.

To be more specific this “Easter Rule” states that Easter will
be celebrated on the first Sunday that has a full moon after
the vernal equinox. Sometimes it is on the vernal equinox as
opposed to actually after it, but you get the meaning. There is
some discord between the actual dates of the full moons and the
ecclesiastical full moons, which lead to Easter being
celebrated between the dates of March 22 and April 25 each
year.

This might be confusing but it is just the way that Easter has
always been chosen. That is why we have calendars, they tell us
when Easter is going to be each year. Honestly I don’t know what
I would do without mine!

The fact of the matter is that while it is important that we
know when Easter is so that we can celebrate it, the most
important thing is that we bring our families together at this
time in order to rejoice in the fact that we have family to
gather. Not everyone is so lucky, these people do not have
friends and families to share Easter with, so feel blessed and
feel hopeful, whether you are religious or not this year.

Easter Day

2005-03-27T15:44:00.000-08:00

Alleluia, Alleluia !

Easter Day is the Sunday of Sundays!

Christians have greeted one another on Easter Day for two thousand years. On every Easter the words proclaim afresh the faith and hope of every Christian in the Good News of God's profound love of mankind.

Alleluia, Alleluia !

Every element of the festive celebration of Mass on Easter Day resounds with the great "Alleluia" the triumphant word of praise for God.

Alleluia (or hallelujah) is a Hebrew word adopted by the Christian Church.
Hallel is the greatest expression of praise in Hebrew. Combined with Jah, the shortened form of the name of God. (Allah in Arabic - meaning God), JHVH (meaning "I AM"), it becomes
Hallelujah. Alleluia is a Latinized spelling.

Easter baskets and Easter egg hunts and lawn rolls are surely a universal occupation of American children on Easter morning along with chocolate eggs and bunnies and marshmallow peeps and jelly beans, Easter flowers and green grass all over the carpet. Nearly every family has its own special customs and traditional foods for Easter.

Easter News

2005-03-22T08:15:00.000-08:00

Easter is one of the most significant event of the Christian calendar. It is a period of intense sorrow for Christians and a great spiritual happiness through the miracle of the resurrection (Easter Sunday).

Easter eggs

The date on which Easter falls varies from year to year, but Easter Sunday is always the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox. You may wonder what connection Easter eggs have to Easter. The egg is a symbol of birth and life. The ancient Persians and Greeks gave eggs at Spring festivals to indicate that nature was beginning to bloom again after the harshness of the winter.
