In 2020, when Easter came around, we were all stuck inside our own little bubbles as people were told not to socialize with others. My daughter and grandkids surprised us with bunny beers, cars, and handmade decorations. I kept the empty cans as a reminder that there was a light at the end of the tunnel.
It’s been a few difficult years and the virus may no longer be as deadly as it was, but it isn’t gone, as those who’ve been unlucky enough to get sick know. Thanks to the extraordinary efforts of researchers, we have a vaccine, one that has prevented me from getting deathly ill.
This year, we’ll be having a traditional Easter dinner with Greek salad, roasted leg of lamb, Greek potatoes, peas, carrots, dinner rolls, and desserts. I look forward to being together as a family and wish you all a good Sunday whether you celebrate the feast or not.
See you tomorrow for another Did you know?

Hi! I live in Eastern Ontario. I'm married with three adult children and five wonderful grandchildren.
I prefer warm weather, and sunshine but winter gives me time to write.
If I’m listening to music, it will be something from the 1960s or 1970s.
I enjoy action movies, romantic comedies, but I draw the line at slasher flicks and horror. I love science fiction and fantasy as well.
I love to read; I immerse myself in the text and, as my husband says, the house could fall down around me, and I’d never notice. My preferences are as varied as there are genres, but nothing really beats a good romance, especially one that is filled with suspense. I love historical romance too, and have read quite a few of those.
If I’m watching television, you can count on it being a suspense — I’m not a fan of reality TV, sit-coms, or game shows.
Writing gives me the most pleasure. I love creating characters that become real and undergo all kinds of adventures. It never ceases to amaze me how each character can take on its own unique personality; sometimes, they grow very different from the way I pictured them!
Inspiration comes from all around me; imagination has no bounds. If I can think it, imagine it, I can write it!
