It's the Easter long weekend. What does this holiday mean to you?

A time to spend with family. And cooked ham with ring pineapple and hot mustard, steamed asparagus, mashed potatoes and some really strong garlic dill pickles.

That would fall under "Something Else", and really, if you can't find anything meaningful this long weekend (i.e. just enjoying a day off work), then you have deeper issues.

Awesome, SINC! That made my mouth water!
Easter used to mean the religious stuff I was indoctrinated with as a child. Now I get to choose a much better use for it.

When you're retired having a day off is no biggie.
While it may be time off for most people it isn't if you work in the restaurant biz. My daughter works her regular schedule.
I don't subscribe to any religion therefore Easter has no meaning. I love chocolate but the stuff they use for Easter bunnies is crap.
There should have been a "Nothing" box to check off.
