2023 Spring/Easter Guide
The first day of Spring is March 20th and Easter is April 9th. It doesn’t feel like Spring is close because here in New England we got slammed with a nor’easter that dumped about 5 inches of snow where I live. I am itching for spring weather and can’t wait to start gardening!
Easter is an interesting holiday for us, we have adopted blended traditions many rooted in respect for our ancestors including celebrating aspects of Passover. My family also celebrates Greek Easter and we heavily celebrate the Spring Equinox. We also don’t forget about the Easter Bunny. Easter has always been an interesting time for us because my family has always celebrated in blended ways. The History Channel has an interesting article about Easter.
Steph’s Cheers and Jeers received samples mentioned in this post in exchange for being featured on our site.
Pereg Passover Collection:
Pereg has become a staple in my household. I love that their spices are high quality and they offer a wonderful range. Pereg has an entire Passover Collection that includes Cinnamon, Shwarma, Za’atar, Basil, Dill, Spearmint, and more. I’m so excited because of several of these spices I can use in traditional Greek cooking and I love including family recipes in our traditions during this time of the year.

Tiny Undies:
Our Toddler is potty training and for Easter, I plan to make up an Easter basket with potty training-related items. I recently discovered Tiny Undies and knew I wanted to include them in his Easter basket. Tiny Undies is a one-stop shop for elimination needs. The company was started after the creator did elimination communication with her son and no longer needed daytime diapers. The issue was finding underwear that fits him! So in 2014, she began designing a line of high-quality and eco-conscious baby and toddler underwear.
I received a 3 pack of their Tiny Undies in size 2T and they are so adorable! My son loves wearing “big boy underwear” I love the fact that the owner has put so much dedication into making sure they provide an anatomically-correct fit for my toddler.

SaladPower:
I tend to drink a lot of smoothies when Spring arrives so SaladPower is a brand I was excited to check out. SaladPower is an organic vegetable smoothie meal replacement. Every pouch has 2x your daily vegetable requirements. I found them to be super tasty but took a little getting used to as I typically drink fruit-based smoothies. The price might seem high but remember, their product uses ONLY organic and sustainably farmed vegetables.

Urthy Scents:
Burning candles is one of my favorite Spring activities and Urthy Scents has some wonderful candles! They are a luxury scent company that doesn’t just sell candles. They also sell body potions, reed diffusers, and more. I received their Palm Grove 12 oz candle which not only smells amazing, but the container is super high quality and heavy. Wonderful quality!

Ponti:
I tend to get more creative when it comes to cooking once Spring arrives. During the Winter I make a lot of soups and stews and during Spring, I tend to BBQ more. I am always looking for new products to use when I cook and Ponti, the #1 vinegar in Italy has a complete line of balsamic vinegars, glazes, wine vinegars, cider vinegars, specialty condiments, and more. Their products are also great for the super bowl.

Click and Grow is a “set and forget” garden system. You don’t have to worry about lighting, watering, or nutrition.

Each biodegradable plant pod features seeds and nutrients and you just remove them from the package and click into the unit.
