How do you acknowledge Easter.

We used to send Easter cards at one time. We always have fish on Good Friday and have family over on Easter Sunday for an informal meal along with Simnel cake and a chocolate dessert and everyone enjoys Easter chocolates or Easter eggs. It is always special.

We are not religious.
It’s nice to have a long weekend with my family.
I’m off today, tomorrow, Saturday, Sunday & Monday.
Husbands finishes school today for the Easter Holidays.
Nice to not be at work 😊

Forgot to add
Husband playing golf tomorrow, Saturday & Sunday.
So maybe just me and the dog 😂

I am not a Christian, but I do see Easter as the welcoming of spring and the end of winter - “ Ostara”

I will be making hot cross buns in the morning and we have lamb on Sunday. This year my DD is away for a break and my DS has a day out planned so we will be on our own for the first time since for ever I think which will be nice.

Our church is doing a Walk of Witness for Good Friday tomorrow, but with the way it's been raining, if it's like that tomorrow I doubt if anyone will witness us witnessing! Still, it's the thought that counts.

GC have got to fit in seeing so many relatives over Easter that I think we'll be having them for Monday - never mind, we'll have a good meal and a happy day with them then.

CrazyH a Chinese? Sounds good to me.😃

I have fish every Friday. Usually go to middle son’s for Easter, but this year, they are going with friends to a big youngsters’ event. Instead, d.I.ls parents and I will go to them on Friday. She is doing lamb for the men but the ladies will have fish. It will be a real sacrifice watching them have lamb (my favourite meat).
Don’t know what I’m doing on Easter Sunday. I’m sure I’ll have an invite to either my daughter’s house or youngest son’s, unless they have other plans. I’m easy. My neighbour is on her own. I might pop in there and we’ll order in a Chinese 😂

Church, Holy week events. Lovely meal after on Sunday.

Struggle a bit with Easter. The crucifiction so sad, why did Christ have to die for my sins? I don't know.
Now its like mini Christmas....What are you doing for Easter? Did you have a good Easter?
I'm lucky but lots of people are lonely and have nobody.

We don’t eat fish or pork, but have just bought some hot cross buns.😃

Have just decorated the house for Easter, something I always do, or rather have done since my kids were small.
DP and I give each other an Easter Egg, they don’t last long!
Will do a Sunday lunch for Mum and two DD’s and partners along with the little DGC, it varies from year to year but just bought a leg of lamb to roast as they are half price in a few supermarkets.
If dry we may go for a walk tomorrow, but every day seems rainy so will see.Am happy to hunker down indoors with a good book.

Easter for us is church on Sunday (usually that is, but this year our church hasn’t got a morning service, and we won’t be able to attend the afternoon service, sadly, due to prior arrangements).
We will have fish tomorrow and lamb on Sunday.
I’ve put a few Easter decorations up along with the Palm Sunday cross and made a simnel cake. We’ve also got some eggs and chocolate.
So Easter in this household is a mix of the religious coupled with welcoming spring and new life.

Fish tomorrow and pork on Easter Sunday. Church tomorrow and Sunday then relaxing time at home just the two of us. Lovely!

Fish tomorrow and I have made some buns

Mass tonight (Maundy Thursday), Designer Outlet tomorrow morning with DD2, then lunch with her (salmon - it's my birthday tomorrow) then Good Friday liturgy at 3pm (DD1 and I often walk into town afterwards, might buy my new trainers), Easter vigil and first Mass of Easter on Saturday at 7pm. Will buy hot cross buns today and on Sunday enjoy my birthday chocolates and cake. No arrangements yet for Sunday lunch, maybe with DD1 or I'll be just as happy to spend it here on my own with a walk in the afternoon and a visit to DH's grave. I prefer Easter to Christmas, less fraught.

Flowers on relatives graves.

Church on Easter Day.

Have made a Simnel cake, but over baked I think, so might be rather dry.


Much prefer Easter to Christmas. When at work, always sure of four days off together, not the same with Christmas.

Just much quieter, far less hype and endless talking about it months beforehand.

And spring here.

I’ve put a few decorations in the living room. Tomorrow will be fish and also hot cross buns. On Sunday as we will be spending time at our holiday lodge the family are coming over. There is an egg hunt for the children and a few other events on. On Monday we are going for lunch with DS and family. I’ve contributed a leg of lamb. We were doing that on Sunday but altered our plans as we knew our GC would like the egg hunt. We’ve bought the GC a gift each and a small egg.

We usually have an Easter egg hunt in the garden for the older GCn but they will be away this Easter, so no hunt this year. I have mini-eggs for OH - his favourite.

When I was a child my family used to go for a walk on the South Downs for 3 o'clock on Good Friday. It is a day of fasting and abstinence in the Roman Catholic church and I still usually have fish on a Friday through habit.

Just an ordinary weekend.

Fish on Friday -even the dog. Church on Sunday and DD has invited us for Sunday lunch.

I have an indoor 'tree' (a small branch painted white) which fits my window nicely and since before the children were born I've hung eggs I've painted, and the children's contributions as they grew up. I add a shop bought one to replace any breakages nowadays.
Gchildren arnt allowed sugar, so I often find gifts that fit into plastic pull apart eggs.
Fish and chips on Gf, hot cross buns whenever, and a box of Lindt.
Visitors if they can but usually they weekend away.
Looks as if it will wet though.

Chocolate eggs for the grandchildren, a token bag of chocolates for their parent, we will have lamb on Sunday, but only because we won it last Sunday. My son is working tomorrow, his partner all weekend, we will see them tomorrow evening and my daughter with her children at some point.
I might do a happy dance if it stops raining for a day or two!

Just another weekend here too. Although we might have lamb as a treat because most of the supermarkets have offers on just now.

The last few years we have gone away for the long weekend with3 DDs and their families as we are this weekend.
There will be an egg hunt on Sunday but only the tiny eggs. There will be hot cross buns but no religious significance to any of it. More a celebration that spring is coming ( hopefully).

Oh I read it as "do you" acknowledge Easter.
Wasn't being rude (I hope)
