Easter Monday Description
Easter Monday spills chocolate egg hunts across soggy gardens, Morris dancers jingling near village greens, and fairgrounds inflating candy-striped rides beside medieval churchyards. Londoners join mass charity runs still wearing bunny ears; York races draw tweed and fascinators though skies threaten rain. Simnel cake studded with eleven marzipan apostles waits under cake domes; leftover lamb becomes shepherd’s pie seasoned with mint from window boxes. In England and Wales the Monday caps a long weekend of dawn services and blossom confetti; Scotland may treat work differently, yet families everywhere share the joke that chocolate calories do not count until Tuesday.
