My favorite holiday, Easter is about Love. So, Love will not let me tell you that Jesus didn't die & get up on the third day for Peeps, Carbury Eggs, & Black Jelly Beans. Yeah, I won't say that. (Yes, you can giggle) Easter was one of the holidays other than Halloween & Christmas that we got candy as children. You know what? I'm going to tag my sister, A & cousin, D.D. aka my Easter Candy Cohorts when I post this on Facebook and maybe they will post in the blog comments they're rankings. But here are the favorites that I love to have in my Easter basket.
5. Snickers Eggs
There is something grown-up about this candy. And it feels lighter than a regular bar.
4. SweeTarts
They are shaped like bunnies & chicks. It's a fun candy.
3. Starburst Jelly Beans
I know I will not accidentally eat a licorice-flavored jelly bean. It is not a flavor provided.
2. Robin's Eggs
They're candy-coated Whoppers. Who can't like these pretty colored malted milk balls? Then hand them to me.
1. Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs
*happy sigh* I've loved this candy since I was a child. Also, Peanut Butter is probably my favorite flavor. I can't think anything with this flavor I dislike. This candy is simple. It is egg-shaped and nicely portion controlled. It is only one in the wrapper. And if it melts, it is still recognizable. (Yes, giggle at melted Christmas trees)
So, what did you like in your Easter baskets? Leave your faves in the comments. Shout out to blowing bubbles. It is not candy, but it was fun to play with them in our front yard.

Okay, so I like your list, but I know that you are a bit forgetful of the Great Candy War of '89, sparked by my number 5: The hollow chocolate bunny. My list would continue with 4: Cadbury Creme eggs ; 3: Robins Eggs / Whoppers ; 2: Jelly Eggs / Beans (Starburst was the best brand back in the day but Jelly Belly is a tie today); #1: Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs...
