We texted a few family members explaining that the fox in the backyard ran off with the Easter Bunny in its mouth, which is why we didn’t get any Easter eggs (or candy) this year. It was a joke, but we really did see a fox run off with a rabbit it had killed about a month ago. Besides, Easter candy will be half off starting tomorrow.
As much as I love catering holiday meals for my mom, her community has banned visitors who cannot produce proof of COVID vaccination, and they’re on high alert for people skirting the rules on holidays. So, if we have leftover ham next weekend, we’ll sneak her some, or make a ham & cheese quiche for her. If it’s gone by then, I’ll use the ham bone to make split pea soup, and bring that instead. Either way, it’s better than the slop the cafeteria serves the residents.
