A Letter to the Easter Bunny

Dear Mr. Bunny,
I thought perhaps since I gave you a make over last week, I'd write to see if you subscribe to the concept of quid pro quo. Basically, I scratch your back and you scratch mine I make you look nice and you return the favor by showering me with fabulous treats in my Easter basket this Sunday.

I wrote a similar letter to Santa Claus in December, and he wasn't impressed. I've opted to keep my expectations lower this time. I won't be asking for a pool boy again, but a sound-proof craft room would be nice. Here are a few things I'd just love to call mine this Spring:

1. Any of the fab Spring shades from OPI. I love OPI--good nailpolish, and you can't beat the names of all the shades!

2. Good reads (Christian fiction can have kind of wishy washy characters, but I love these two authors!):

3. Anything from Charming Charlie!

5. This dress from Old Navy (how cute is it?!):

6. J'adore these wedges. They might be Payless, but I likes 'em:
7. 'Nuff said:
If you would also be so kind as to distract my kids in the yard for an hour or two so I can take a nap, that would be great. They like shiny things...take after their mama.

I'll throw in a couple of carrots to sweeten the deal. What do you say?
Sincerely,
Amanda

{What would you love to find in an Easter basket made just for you?}

  1. I'm an easy please. I'd take a fountain diet coke (cuz you know they're better than a can or bottle). Throw in some milk and bread so I can skip Walmart this week, and I'm good to go!

    Of course a foot rub, pedicure, spa, or massage gift card would always be a good treat too.

  2. Oh my gosh why do I want EVERYTHING you put on your list too?! Sooo cute! I'd never heard of those Christian authors b/f, I'll have to check them out, a friend of mine recommended Beverly Lewis to me a while back, I just got one of her 1st books & want to start it soon, I'll let you know if I like it. And I keep hearing somuch about charming charlie's but haven't been yet for fear of spending my entire tax return there. And chocolate? How can you go wrong there, especially, chocolate w/ peanut butter! :-D Hope you at least get a few things on your list :-D

  6. Francine Rivers is really good...have you read the Mark of the Lion trilogy?
    I also like Robin Jones Gunn (Sisterchicks) and Karen Kingsbury.

  7. You've got yourself the makings of one great Easter basket there!

    What IS it about those Reese's eggs? I like Reese's peanut butter cups, of course, but somehow the eggs are even better! I'm not sure why. Somehow I must force myself to stay away from the clearance sales on Easter candy.

    I hadn't seen that dress from Old Navy. I was there yesterday buying shorts for my boys. And shirts for my boys. And belts for my boys. Dresses? What department would that be in? I need to make another trip!

  9. What a great dress from Old Navy! (Would you believe that I've never set foot in one of their stores? ... Yes, if you saw me here in my old sweats and t-shirt, you'd believe it. LOL) I'm definitely with you on the chocolate, too.

    I actually have no requests for the Easter Bunny, except maybe a nap. And I got to take one of those yesterday, so I can't complain at all. :)

  13. Those books look great! I am always up for a good referral. I agree about the christian authors-thanks for the heads up.
    So glad that you got your box and you loved the carrots! Sorry it took so long! Funny post-I just got home from Old Navy with my easter presents-forget the bunny-he never comes through for me!

  16. I'm with Slommler, I'd love a gift certificate for a spa weekend.

    And a pretty J. Crew ruffled cardi wouldn't hurt, either!

    Happy Easter.

I love to hear your feedback! Please feel free to leave comments...just don't send me spam asking me to buy stuff off your website! I've got three kids and no money to purchase your magic weight-loss pill or bust enhancement, or whatever else you might be selling. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! :)
