Come one, come all, and celebrate the afterglow of Easter on Easter Monday, April 1! This cherished day is celebrated as a holiday in many cultures and originated as a second day of rest for those who had spent Easter Sunday at church. The fun doesn't have to stop when Easter Sunday is over. With this day, we can keep the joy of the season going for just a little bit longer. Whether you're using the extra day to devour leftover chocolate eggs or enjoying time with loved ones, Easter Monday is indeed an extension of the Easter spirit filled with joy, peace, and of course, delicious treats! So sit back, relax, and extend that Easter cheer one extra day. After all, why should we limit the celebration to just one day, when we could have two? Get ready for an egg-tra special Easter Monday!
