Easter

Easter is right around the corner and we decided to celebrate the season by giving away an Easter basket complete with candy and even a giant bunny. (Plus some other station goodies). The best part is, your favorite DJ will hand deliver the basket to the person you choose (yes, you can put yourself in because we ALL need a little Easter cheer) and you can pick where it's delivered.

Stock up on the goods in stores, but also think about making a few of your own delectable treats this year.

We imagine that at this point in the spring season, you've stocked up on loads of chocolate (or are anticipating a victorious post-Easter candy sale), faux grass and enough hardboiled eggs to live off of for the next six months.

While the Easter bunny is generally well-regarded for its fluffy belly, alert ears and too-cute buck teeth, some humans just aren't so fond of the creature. We're talking about young kiddos who -- when faced with the giant creature every Easter holiday -- erupt into a fountain of tears, traumatic screams and eyes bulging out of their sockets.
