What's in your Basket?

Way back when...

back in the day...

Our 3 chicks loved searching for their Easter baskets

almost as much as discovering what was in them.

The Easter Bunny would hide their baskets

and leave a little rhyming note

with clues to help them with their search.

 “Yo yo, E.B. here...

Be a dear and get your rear in gear.

Find your basket where yo daddy stashes beer.”

(Okay, not exactly that clue…maybe something a little sweeter and age appropriate.)

I’ll always remember the Easter when I was just a kitten

(and not an ole alley Kat)

when the Easter Bunny brought me the best basket ever.

Nestled in the green plastic grass...

I found

A toy yellow chick,  

a pack of candy cigarettes,

 and a pen in the shape of a cigar.  

Apparently I was the

“Lucky”

 recipient of the “Jr. Smoker’s Easter Basket.” 

And this kitten was purring with happiness. 

 I still remember diligently working on my homework with my cigar pen,

while smoking my candy cigarettes.

Anywhoooo......

What’s in your basket? 

I hope yours was as smokin’

as mine was...

back in the day.

Happy Easter
