My Chocolate Easter Tradition

I see full moon appear.
This means Easter is near.
For students I will make
chocolate Easter nests, no-bake.
I do this every year.

Making the nests is fun
and easy for nearly everyone.
Melt chocolate; add coconut in.
The mixture is not thin.
Form into nests; almost done!

Into each nest put candy.
Jelly bean eggs are handy.
For coconut, green food dye
is grass where eggs lie.
My Easter nests are dandy!

I didn't know that a recipe or one of sorts made for some good poetry, and now I do. My apologizes for the comments to take forever. Congrats on your win in my contest. By the way, those sound easy to make.

Andrea, the wanna be preacher has been dusting his pulpit lately, talking the talk but missteps don't allow walking the walk on the narrow path. Your chocolate treats look delicious. Wish I had some!

Yummy-looking way, esp. this year, to avoid the 'eggageratedly' high price of eggs.

Eostre would approve! No, no spring rituals for me. Just basking in the afterglow of the resurrection

Even a tiny amount of arsenic makes a glass of water lethal. Your view is the widely accepted one. I'll stay on the narrow path. Have a pleasant day

That Exodus scripture has nothing to do with making fun treats for people. We are not worshiping a goddess.We are just thinking of having fun at the time of spring. Most people have no clue who Eostre is Even in my picture, I have a plate that says Happy Spring on it. You have to quit focusing so much on what people do to have fun and seeing it as a bad thing.

Exactly! Exodus 20:1-3; 2 Corinthians 6:14-18

Of course I go to church service. Do you like to take the fun out of holidays ? The goddess of fertility symbolizes spring. That's why the eggs!
