So yesterday was Easter and I got to work from 8 in the morning until one, then rush home so I could see my cousin before she went to work at 2:30. As her and I got to talking we realized that our holidays are becoming less and less. Less people, less food, and less gifts (not that the gifts matter.) It is really sad because I really only see my cousins on holiday's and if we try and plan something, someone ends up having to work. So it's really hard to find time to see each other. The food wasn't all that great either. I made apple pie which was soooooo good, but my mom usually makes cheesecake but she bought it instead. It was good but it just wasn't the same. My mom usually makes really good potatoes, but she bought them from this place called Cena. They were sooo gross. The best part of my meal was the baked ziti. I will forever love that stuff!! Then after my cousin left I was all alone with nothing to do. Then my mom brought up this really old box from the seventies which had pictures of my mom, my aunt, and uncle when they were younger. It had a head band that's over 45 years old, and old report cards and stuff. I was looking at some of the clothes these people wore and couldn't help but laugh. My aunt had a bee hive hair do with tons of hair spray in it. My aunt was a beautician for awhile and once people found out she could give hair cuts like the Beatles, people flocked to her. My mom got it done and she looked like a twelve year old boy. It was pretty funny looking at those pictures. Our Easter was kind of boring and I miss my old Easter baskets that were filled with candy. Now I got makeup, gum, and some money. Not so thrilling. I miss the Easter Bunny and searching for eggs around the house. It's just not the same. I guess that's a part of growing up. Today's question is how was your Easter? What are your normal traditions? What has changed? Would you want it back to the way it was when you were younger? I can't wait to go back to school tomorrow! NOT
