Cariloha Friday! And the official Good Friday of the Christian world, along with the beginning of the Jewish Passover at sundown. This weekend also involves a certain sweet-toothed bunny and a basket full of eggs and candy, hope to say. It’s a weekend of spiritual, springtime wonders and confections.
As you begin to test the weekend waters, remember to dress your Easter best, Cariloha style, for whatever Easter activity that comes your way.
Let’s get started. Use some post-it notes to take this down… slice up some fresh tomatoes for your hoagies to celebrate two nationally recognized holidays (today), then don’t even think about doing any house work, rather pop in a TV dinner and watch some public television Easter shows (tomorrow), next celebrate Easter in your own way, whether that be hunting for Easter eggs or watching the sunrise (Sunday), finally visit your public library, read about outer space and astronauts, and possibly quote some stoic lines from Winston Churchill (Monday). Have a happy Easter weekend to one and all!
However you approach your weekend, make it a memorable time and don’t forget to wrap up in your Cariloha bamboo-soft clothing, sheets or towels every day.
