I like to make this will strawberries, vanilla pudding poured over layers of angel food cake.
It’s no bake . . . when you buy an angel food cake from the bakery section of your local market.
Of course you can use pound cake and the berries of your choice or a combination of berries. I suppose you could also make this with pan cakes . . . or waffles . . . make it with or without the vanilla pudding . . . just the berries with the “cake” of your choice.
So, this isn’t really a recipe . . . a procedure of layering your cake with the berries and if you use pudding, you layer that right along putting the berries on top.
Just follow the picture and you’ll have a delicious dessert for your family . . . and if you decide to use pan cakes or waffles, this would be a flavorful breakfast or brunch . . . with or without the vanilla pudding . . . I know I’m pushing the pudding . . . it’s supposed to be all about the berries.
It’s interesting how a picture can give you several ideas of how to make a special treat for your family. Since it’s about the berries or the fruit . . . banana pudding would be delicious . . . and why not chocolate pudding?
I don’t know, I didn’t really think of it . . . perhaps this could work, too. You just need to gather up your ingredients and go for it. Maybe try some test runs with your combinations . . . maybe cut the angel food cake in small pieces and make different puddings and wash and cut up different berries and fruit and make a whole platter of berry delicious treats.
This would be a wonderful way of giving everyone a little bit of everything before making a commitment of a whole cake using one combination of ingredients. You may find your taste test platter becomes your new Berry Easter Cake tradition.
I fell in love with Thumper when I first saw him in Bambi.
So every spring and Easter, I get thinking about him.
Initially, I was thinking of just printing out Thumper and forgetting about the basket. I would love to make other crafts using his image throughout the year. Wouldn’t he look great wrapped up in Christmas lights?
If you do want to print out and make the Easter Basket, just click the image and you’ll be taken to the download and print page.
You can definitely have some great fun filling these Easter baskets with goodies for your family, friends and neighbors.
I would print these out on cardstock and maybe reinforce the pieces by gluing them on chip board or old cereal boxes or soda can boxes or any cardboard you have around. If you plan on putting Easter eggs in them, the baskets may not be sturdy enough to hold them. Or put a note on them to pick up and support the bottom of the basket.
Emoji’s are extremely popular . . . so why not use them to decorate your Easter Eggs
Yes, it seems easy enough.
Just die your eggs yellow and with an appropriate marker draw the emoji of your choice.
This would definitely be a fun family project.
I’m sure you could find some appropriate stickers you could use as well. That’s why it’s a good idea to think ahead for your various do it yourself projects.
All of us have our favorite emoji . . . I can see them on Christmas ornaments, too. There’s another project to think about ahead of time. This could also work when cutting our your Halloween pumpkin . . .
You may also find some stencils that might work. At least for those of you who don’t feel all that artistic. I’m sure you’ll do quite fine on your own . . . just get into it and see what develops.
Get into that childhood mode of being creative and doing your best. Have fun and enjoy yourself.
I find it surprising. The days, weeks and months seem to have flown by. I remember preparing for Halloween . . . then Thanksgiving . . . and Christmas.
Next is the New Year — 2016 . . . unbelievable.
Maybe I should begin preparing for Easter . . . it will be here in record time, just as Christmas has arrived so quickly.
It is said that the older you get, the quicker time seems to pass.
This Statement Seems Strange To Me
As we get older we may slow down a bit.
When we’re younger we’re trying to cram so much into every single day. Wouldn’t it seem logical that one with a busy schedule would find the passage of time going by at a faster pace?
I’m not expert . . . just observant . . . and blogging about it. It’s unfortunate I have no answers, just questions. And I do ask you, “Does time seem to be going by quickly?”
I Think I’ll March Ahead To Easter
I know there’s the New Year and the Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day and other holidays . . . but . . . Easter for 2016 will be Sunday, March 27.
In some ways that seems quite a ways away . . . but back in October, Christmas seemed so far away . . .
Easter seems to be coming early this coming year . . . it’s been in the April for awhile. Now, the end of March.
Before I March Ahead . . . How’s Your Christmas?
I’ve been getting my fill of Christmas Carols.
I do love them and will miss them. I will be playing them while I take my Christmas tree down and put away the decorations. It is part of my tradition.
I play Christmas Carols while decorating the tree and the house. So it seems fitting to do the same when taking everything down.
Now, I sometimes keep the tree up until after the New Year . . . and sometimes right after Christmas.
In the case of my blogs . . . except for ChristmasGoRound.com things will be changing over the weekend. ChristmasGoRound.com will be still about Christmas . . . it’s my year round Christmas website. It is Christmas 365 days a year . . . not a repeat, as in the movies . . . just having the focus of Christmas throughout the year.
I’m also eliminating some of my websites. I want to be able to devote time to the ones I’m keeping. With time going by so quickly . . . I need to concentrate on those websites that are the most important to me.
I do hope this Christmas Day was filled with joy and goodwill for you and your family.
It may be a rainy day for me. During the early morning hours there was rain . . . and I do hope it continues. We need the rain and I have no outdoor plans.
It is cold . . . which is quite refreshing for Christmas.
I feel good. This has been a wonderful Christmas. Maybe because it was my precious Diva’s first Christmas with me. She seemed to feel right at home with the tree and the decorations . . .
My little Diva is a remarkable little Yorkshire Terrier that brings me much joy and happiness.
I’m sure you feel the same about your furry pets.
Have a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
