“According to some sources, the Easter bunny first arrived in America in the 1700s with German immigrants who settled in Pennsylvania and transported their tradition of an egg-laying hare called “Osterhase” or “Oschter Haws.” Their children made nests in which this creature could lay its colored eggs. Eventually, the custom spread across the U.S. and the fabled rabbit’s Easter morning deliveries expanded to include chocolate and other types of candy and gifts, while decorated baskets replaced nests. Additionally, children often left out carrots for the bunny in case he got hungry from all his hopping.”

Yummy Sourdough Bread (without yeast!)
I made this recipe for my family this weekend and they loved it! Easy to make and doesn't take long! Delish!!
INGREDIENTS:
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar, double this amount if desired
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 cup water, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vinegar (cider or white)
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. In a 2-cup measuring cup, combine the water and vinegar. While stirring, add the water mixture to the flour mixture. Stir the mixture until a dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Knead the dough for 2-3 minutes to make sure all the ingredients are incorporated.
- Shape the dough into a flat, round disk no more than 1 1/2 inches high. Place the dough on a baking sheet or pizza pan. Dip a sharp knife into flour then cut an "X" or "#" on top of the loaf.
- Place the pan in the oven and bake at 400 degrees F for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown and the crust is firm. If desired, brush the top of the loaf with milk halfway through the baking time for a softer crust.
- When the bread is done, remove it from the oven and while still hot brush it with the melted butter. The butter adds flavor as well as softening the crust.
