Easter Goodies: Beyond the Candy

From Halloween to Easter most homes have a never-ending supply of candy. Do you still have Christmas candy hanging out under that pile of Valentine's treats the kids brought home? No? Oh, umm... me either. ;)

If you're tired of the endless pile of candy that the holidays bring, fill those Easter baskets with some alternative goodies. There are so many possibilities!
