This morning I tried to turn on my old lapper and got a message that basically said, “It’s Easter. I’ve decided to go to Heaven. Go spend time with your family.”
RIP lapper.
Then, I prayed. John 3:16.
I finished up my bunny cake this morning. Let me tell you a secret… I used a gluten free cake mix for this. It’s not good.
Luckily, my mom bought those Costco carrot cake cupcakes. They are DELICIOUS. Eat one.
Since my little brother is 12 and our cousins aren’t around this year we didn’t do an egg hunt even though we dyed them. I kinda missed hiding eggs. And it would have been the best day for it too – it’s gorgeous outside!
I stayed outside with my fellow redheaded Mexican bro until we started getting too many freckles and had to head back in…
Question: What was the BEST thing you ate today?
That carrot cake cupcake was amazing.
Arthur Keneyd says
Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favorite reason appeared to be on the net the simplest thing
to be aware of. I say to you, I definitely get irked while people think about worries that they plainly do not know about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined
out the whole thing without having side-effects , people can take
a signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks

My daughter made that kit-kat cake with the m&m’s on top. Delicious!!
runeatrepeat says
That sounds amazing.
Kelly @ Kelly the Culinarian says
My mom is the best cook. She made an awesome Easter ham, but her desserts were also to die for. It’s a good thing I don’t live at home anymore, I’d be HUGE.
colleen says
I made so many treats for other people (including 15 bunny cakes!) that I didn’t even cook for me and my husband. Ohhhh well! I think all my customers enjoyed their Easter desserts, though! Your carrot cupcake looked great!
Sarah says
That cupcake looks so good! I really didn’t have anything amazing on Easter this year… tres disappointing!
Susan says
Best thing I ate was a yellow cupcake (box mix variety) wth homemade buttercream icing. I DIE! So good.
Tara says
M nieces Jellybelly jelly beans : )
Jennifer Wordehoff says
The best thing I ate….bbq ribs, sausage, coleslaw, and potato salad. What can I say this is how we eat in Texas!
Jodea @ chillichocolatelove says
A Lindt Easter chick. Luckily there wasn’t too much chocolate in the house ‘cos I was ready to demolish it all, but too lazy to go out for more!
Abby Johnson says
That cup cake looks cute and delicious at the same time. Why does the bunny cake isn’t good?
hmmm.. I don’t know how they call it but it looks like salad because there’s lettuce, sliced carrots, some bell pepper, cucumber with cheese and dressing and what’s great about it was the Deviled egg on the side 🙂
Serena says
I made a white cake with raspberry filling and coconut! Really good!
Sue says
Started Easter with a walk too! And I had a to-die-for-homemade-by-my-cousin cupcake. Hehehe
Angela says
I made chocolate cake mix “brownies” with melted Peeps on top and sprinkles. They were serrrrrriously good, and I don’t even like Peeps.
Colleen @ Wide Eyes Quick Feet says
Reese’s Easter eggs. Nomnomnom!
Avery @ Southern Belle Living Well says
What a fun day! I enjoyed some KICKIN’ cake bars today. Mm Mm!
Jessica @ From the Kitchen to the Road says
I have been on a no sugar kick and haven’t had dessert in 5 weeks. I had three desserts today and they all tasted like heaven. I had coconut torte, dirt cake, and coffee cake. Back to not eating added sugars.
Lindsey says
Just one favorite thing? Pickled eggs from my mom because I missed her so much today! She couldn’t make it to dinner and had my father deliver the eggs she made. They didn’t fill her absence, but it made me happy. They were delicious.
Kate says
Leftover lentil loaf from Friday’s easter dinner!
Kym says
My sister made Chocolate Cupcakes with Cadbury Carmel Filled Eggs baked in them…TO DIE FOR!!
Becky @ Olives n Wine says
The bunny cake is too cute! Too bad it didn’t taste great… Carrot cake cupcakes seem like a good back-up 🙂 The best thing I had today was my mom’s homemade strawberry-rhubarb pie and a peanut butter cup cupcake. Yes, I had two desserts. It’s Easter, no judgment, right?
Emily @SinfulNutrition says
I made a batch of Gina’s Carrot Cake Cupcakes from Skinny Taste and they were amazing! Best thing hands down today. Of course topped with Starburst jelly beans.
Jojo says
I went on a hike and had a picnic. I brought carrot and celery sticks with raw zucchini hummus, a cranberry-sunflower seed bagel with cashew butter and banana, homemade cheesy bread, and molasses spice cookies. Everything tastes better al fresco 🙂
ESW says
Why gluten free cake? Just to experiment? I feel like cake needs gluten. Ha ha (unless you really can’t have it and then I think I’d rather just have ice cream! ;))
runeatrepeat says
Yeah, it was just to experiment. And it was disappointing.
Meg says
Best thing I ate today was banana pancakes! Trader Joe’s pancake mix + mashed up banana + pumpkin pie spice. Deelish.
Fiona @ Get Fit Fiona says
The ham was definitely my favorite at Easter dinner this year.
Melissa says
Your Easter looked fun! Was Ben there too? Haven’t seen him at all on the blog
Liz says
I was thinking the same thing…I always like when he’s included in blog stories. You guys seem so fun!
Jen says
Ditto. Where is Ben!?!
Amy @ Writing While Running says
I avoided all Easter candy today and it felt great! Going to completely avoid sugar and caffeine this week. Here we go, Spring Detox!
RunEatRepeat says
I have been out of control with the sugar. Need to get on that.
Becca says
I love your dress! Where did you get it? I’m hunting for a shift lace dress like that. But it’s been a struggle. My butt tends to make the dresses too short lol.
RunEatRepeat says
Target! It is short though – my booty brings it up so I have to be careful. But it has a liner though so it won’t ride up just because.
Losing Lindy says
Do they still put raisins in the carrot cake at Costco? I don’t like raisins
RunEatRepeat says
Yeah… more for me.
Losing Lindy says
bummer for me, yay for you
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
I made homemade vegan carrot cupcakes and they were INCREDIBLE!
Kelly @ Running to Healthy says
Ok, disclaimer, my blog is diet focused and what I’m about to tell you is not! So I made Choco-Oreo-Brownie bars. Press 2 packages of cookie dough in the bottom of a 9×13 pan. Layer whole oreos on top. Prepare one box of brownie mix and spoon that over the whole pan. Bake at 350 for 40ish minutes. Yum!
RunEatRepeat says
I want.
TorontoRunner says
The bunny cake is too fab!
Happy Easter 🙂
Also, I’ve been a bit MIA on the blogging world this month but catching up and saw that you had a HUGEEEEEEEE (and I mean ginormous) PR at the LA marathon this year – CONGRATS!
RunEatRepeat says
Thank you so much!!! I think I’m still walking on clouds from it 🙂
