Easter's OK, but Peeps aren't.
Easter is weird. Slaughtering the Spring Lamb for Dinner is only part of it. Now, some prefer Ham. An Easter Ham is part of some traditions, except for those who prefer not to partake of Ham, (Or Easter, for that matter...)
Easter for me is walkies- the time to get up into the Hills and checkout what Nature has been up to while Persephone has been otherwise occupied.
Now when it comes to Bunnies and Eggs... and Easter for that matter, just look into the myths surrounding Ostera, or Eostre. Myths, some older than the myths surrounding Persephone and that Spring Lamb guy, associate Eostre with Spring, Fertility, Eggs, and Bunnies.
So Happy Perseph... no, that's not right. Happy Jesu... no, not that either.
Happy Eostre!
