O I love the Bunny.

I don't know about all of you but I am SO ready for summer! Unfortunately for me it snowed in the past week and dashed my dreams of the lovely yellow dress I was planning to wear for Easter. I am still hoping to take some time out of my busy painting schedule this weekend to be able to decorate the house or cookies in a festive manor for Easter! Easter is my favorite Holiday for a lot of reasons. The resurrection of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ along with the forgiveness of my sins clearly takes the cake BUT second and an added bonus which comes from the commercial side of Easter, rabbits. Bunnies are my FAVORITE animal and have been since I was little. I have had pet rabbits through the years and as a little girl I was given a stuffed animal bunny which I cleverly named Rab-Rab. Next time I am home I'll have to try and find a picture of Rab-Rab and I. Anyways. To celebrate my favorite animal here are some of my favorite Rabbit pictures drawings and movie clips.

An Artist who goes by the name of MarkH89 on Flicker drew the three above bunnies.
 I LOVE his various styles and sketches of the bunny.
Many of his other works are very enjoyable as well!
This link should take you to his flickr page:

Bunny Snacks

Annie's Snacks come shaped like rabbits and they aren't just snacks! 

There are cereals, pastas and all of it is healthy and delicious.

Not only do I love Annie's snacks and their adorable shapes 

I am so grateful they were invented because 

for people with certain allergies these snacks are a dream come true.

I usually buy my Annie's bunnies at the local grocery store but you can get them online too:

Annie's website even has coloring pages! Fun!

I found this fun cupcake idea as a use for Annie's bunnies 

on "No Fuss Fabulous" and added the link below the picture:

Bunny Presents

Bunnykins- These plates bowls and figurines were a favorite gift of mine from my grandparents when I was growing up. I still love these but do not own any of my own at present I hope to again someday.

The Tale of Peter Rabbit- This book is by Beatrix Potter and is fabulously illustrated along with a wonderful story that I have long loved.

The Velveteen Rabbit- I cannot help but love this book. I would read it with Rab-Rab often as a child.





Anyways, now that I am done with this trip down memory lane I am going to get some celebrating on and try to bake some Easter goodies! I'm thinking of trying some new recipes! Wish me luck!


Also if any of you have any fun recipes you like for Easter, I would love to hear about them :)
