Easter
Definition
A Christian holiday commemorating the resurrection of Jesus Christ, typically observed on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox.
The season or period surrounding this holiday, often associated with spring, eggs, bunnies, and chocolate.
Informally, a time for pastel colors, family gatherings, and questionable fashion choices like giant floppy hats.
Examples
Every Easter, my grandma hides the eggs so cleverly that the kids end up negotiating with the garden gnomes for clues.
The Easter bunny must be exhausted from hopping around the world, delivering chocolate guilt to every household.
I gave up chocolate for Lent, only to inhale a dozen Cadbury eggs on Easter like a competitive eater at a buffet.
Easter brunch is just an excuse to wear a bonnet and pretend deviled eggs are a personality trait.
