To think that Easter seems to be far more stressful than Christmas for MNetters?

I can't believe the amount of threads that have been started today about a day full of chocolate Shock. The angst! The chocolate rage! The stressing about too much, too little, who is the most frugal, children being sent to bed sobbing because they've dived head first into the Easter eggs. Honestly I don't remember it being like this any other year.

It's chocolate FFS!

YABVU and clearly have a short memory if you think the number of threads about Easter stress is in any way comparable to those about Christmas.

Me too rusty I always just roll with the punches and really enjoy these occasions. I think a lot of it is self made drama queenery tbh.

We're not big chocolate eaters, but we do like a couple of extra duvet days, so we're happy, happy, happy in this house! Grin

I bought myself an Easter egg!

My kids have all offered me some of theirs which I thought was sweet especially as they don't get many.

If the threads about Easter stress started as early as the threads about Christmas stress then they'd be starting before Christmas!
