If you could have a wonderful Easter Basket, what would be in it?

I'd like a gift card for food, a gift card for clothes, a plane ticket to the Grand Canyon. But actually, I mean use your imagination. I'd like a white chocolate bunny. A pecan log. Those expensive Ukranian Eggs. The ones with beautiful designs. A jar of real cream. A pint of maple syrup. A misc. container of dried fruit teas. A furry fake bunny. 10 ounces of angora bunny fur for weaving. A bunch of fun stuff to incorporate into a weaving like old fashioned buttons or ones that are made from shells. More silk ribbon for ribbon embroidery. So what would be in your Easer Basket? What fun stuff would you like to see in it?

Some nice hand cream and some nice lip balm would be nice. I use those all the time. Hot chocolate sachets and perhaps some other food type goodies. Perhaps some sort of dry sausage and some hard cheese? Chocolate, of course. I'm not fussy but if it's dark chocolate then I won't have to share it with the kids! As it's Easter and Easter is the time for rabbits, do you think I could have a real rabbit? Female and of breeding age please. I've had a very bad season for rabbits and my last remaining female needs replacing. Some seeds. I fancy some interesting bean varieties. They're pretty as well as productive. And if I'm allowed to be really imaginative, a swarm of bees! They might need a basket all of their own, but they're probably the most yearned after of all my wishes. There is a shortage of bee swarms here this year, apparently due to the drought. I have four hives sitting empty

If I were the Easter Bunny, you'd get hand cream, lip balm, hot chocolate, sachets, lots of fun goodies, dry sausage, hard cheese. What kind of bunny? Food bunny for food, angora bunny for hair to use, etc? Sorry that it was a bad season for both bunnies and bees. For lip balm, i went to a class that used bees wax and olive oil for lip balm and the base for lots of creams. Mabybe that would be cheaper if you use them all the time. Thanks for responding and take care.

NailTech, I always thought that the 'American' English 'yellow jacket' referred to a wasp rather than a bee. Whoops! Do you know what the bush is? Might be very handy for future bee forage garden planning. I've built the area, but have not yet planted.

We have these bushes where I swear the bees think they are hives. They are so full of yellow jackets, sometimes. Several of these bushes, and they are beehive shaped too.

Hmmmm. I have much of anything I would need, except time. Could I have a magic Genie to help me organize my life? I would love a trip to Minnesota. I saw a beautiful "banner" or "wall hanging" or window hanging in a window of a store today, that I would love to have, or I would love to copy, because it was made of ribbons and beads, and it would be easy to do. I think I would love to have it, as the colors make me happy.

If I were an Easter Bunny with a majic wand, I would wave it and poof, you'd be in Minnesota. when you came back, all the materials for the banner would be in a basket waiting for you to make it./ Then I'd see if I could find a Genie to help you. Take care and thanks for responding.

You're welcome. I love being the Easter Bunny. I think Easter Bunnies are under-rated.

The best thing I can think of would be the deed to a little house somewhere in the country with an acre or two of secluded property around it. A wood burning stove and a garden already dug and ready to plant would be nice, too. Then, of course, I'd have to have some dark chocolate to celebrate Easter.

Well, thank you. If I ever come across a magic Bunny Wand, I'll be sure to send it to you.

If I could, I'd wave my magic Bunny Wand and you'd have the house and the taxes would be affordable with the wood stove and the ready-made garden. Dark chocolate for Easter, too. Thanks for responding andtake care.

beads, lots and LOTS of beads, especially the crystals, pearls and some beautiful pendents! Maybe a collection of new beading tools and LOTS of silver findings! (those are like clasps, crimp beads, jump rings, soldered rings, and pendents hangers).

If I were the Easter Bunny, I'd hop on over the a craft supply store and get all kinds of beads, pendents, brading tools and the findings. Everything you need for beads, including cord, wire, etc to string them on. Thanks for responding and take care.

Well I'm going to have to think again! haha! I was going to say the same as you, some chocolates and some gift cards. Okay so I guess I do still want the gift cards (to walmart) and then I would also want some crunch bars, a chocolate bar called Sinful Foods or something of the like made in one of my family members hometowns. Uhm, let me see, I'd also want a nice new shirt or two and that is about it. Atleast what could fit into an easter basket.

If I were a magic Easter Bunny, I'd wave my wand and you'd have all those things in an Easter basket just for you. You're the first person wo want a new shirt or two. That's a very practical idea. Thanks for responding and take care.

I would like the car that I am buying to be paid off as I promised that I would not drive it until it was paid for. I also would like a ticket to go to Hawaii as it is the one place that I have always wanted to visit. I also want chocolate as I love it!

A gift card for a new laptop. Some belguim chocolates. And an assortment of the regular Easter egg basket stuffer for the kids that I can share. And one magical egg that you drop some water on and it becomes whatever you wish for.

If I were an Easter Bunny, I'd get you all of that with my Easter Bunny wand. I like the magical egg idea. That would make a great story. Hope you write one that includes that. I'd love to share the begium chocolates with you. That would be great!
