Saturday Nine


The Easter Bunny Bop

Welcome to Saturday: 9.Hosted by Samantha!
Saturday 9: The Easter Bunny Bop (2015)

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.


1) This song encourages little ones to celebrate Easter by doing a little dance. Do you feel like dancing this morning? I feel like dancing in my spirit, but my body isn’t quite up to it.


2) Everyone in this video is wearing bunny ears. Target, Amazon and other retailers sell bunny ear headbands sized for adults and priced at about $5. Will you be wearing bunny ears, or perhaps a more conventional chapeau, this weekend? Or, because of the corona virus, will your Easter attire be the same as any other day?  We are getting to do something out of the ordinary this Resurrection Sunday.  instead of listening to our sermon online, we will drive out to a church member’s horse farm, park our cars in a drive- in arrangement around a shed where our pastor and song leader will by  microphone lead our service. We will not be allowed out of our cars, but it sure sounds fun.  We hope it will be a clear and sunny day, even though it may be brisk and chill. But I will not be wearing bunny ears.   I will, however, be joyously ringing my bells in exaltation, because “ He is risen! “

3) This week's featured artists, The Bounce Patrol Kids, are a children's entertainment juggernaut: CDs, DVDs, downloads, and t-shirts. Additionally, they often update their YouTube channel because they want children the world over to have access to their upbeat, energetic songs for free. Besides the Bounce Patrol, what's the last YouTube video you watched?
We were so blessed to enjoy Lance Wallnau’s Passover celebration last night on YouTube.  https://youtu.be/hAWmgaZAM3Y


4) According to Forbes magazine, the average American household spends $20.66 on candy each Easter. Will you be consuming candy this weekend? No. 


5) The biggest chocolate Easter egg was made in Italy, measured 34 feet tall and weighed a staggering 15,000 lbs. Do you thinks it's possible to have too much chocolate?  I love chocolate, and eat about 1/4 cup of 
Peanut  M M ‘s a day.   Love them!
  
6) After chocolate, the top-selling Easter candy is Peeps Marshmallow Chicks. They're so popular that, in 2018, they were the subject of a Jeopardyclue. Do you often watch Jeopardy? I used to. 

7) Jelly beans are also popular this time of year. In a 2019 poll, jelly bean fans responded that Jelly Belly Buttered Popcorn is their favorite flavor. Sam is crazy about cherry. Do you have a favorite? I like any. 

8) We've been talking a lot about sweets this morning. The only holiday that generates more candy sales is Halloween. When do you eat more candy: Easter or Halloween?  Since we  have no children at home we try not to have a lot of extra sweets around the house.  MM s are our special treat as a couple!


 9) Easter is considered the season of rebirth. What makes you feel refreshed or rejuvenated.  I love the beauty of the spring colors coming alive each March/ April!

  1. Your congregation has found a great way around Easter Sunday social distancing. Good for all of you!

    I'm impressed that you have the discipline to limit yourself to a 1/4 cup of M&Ms.

Farewell

 After  17 years of   blogging  I am  pretty sad to  just fade  out  with  hardly  anyone showing any   farewell,  concern  about my  surger...
