Buona Pasqua! I've been secretly reading your blog without you knowing for almost a year now :) and I just had to comment. I adore these giant eggs! At my PAM, there were rows and rows of them, and I just wanted to steal them all they looked so pretty, and were full of my favorite thing on planet earth CHOCOLATE. Gnam. To remember American, I had Peeps dipped in chocolate. Yes, it was delicious. :) <strong><em>Haha thanks for commenting -- and for making my mouth water for Peeps!!!</em></strong> Ah! Buona Pasqua!

I just emailed your article on Deno's Easter Eggs from 2007 to my cousin, Gingie today. She loved it and knows you. She was your phys ed teacher and had nothing but great things to say about you. Thank you for bringing back memories for both of us. I will read it to my sister tomorrow (Easter). She just has to have her chocolate peanut butter eggs every Easter. <strong><em>Peanut butter are my favorite too; thanks for passing that on to Gingie -- please do send my best!</em></strong> Happy Easter to you, too!

Way to go on the photos. You truly are a photo journalist and excellent communicator. I just wanted to send you the update from Emilia - Romagna. At our local supermarket, the coop, about as big as a 7-11, they had half price Disney eggs, thanks goodness, they were half price, because they were the same size as yours above. We got a 2 magnets, one was for a GIRL and we have boys. There was no writing on the package. Full retail price: 15 euro each, about $20, each. The fun part was hands down watching my 5 year old karate chop it.:) Julie <strong><em>Ooooh Disney eggs...fancy schmancy ;)</em></strong> .-= Julie ~ jbulie's blog´s last blog ..?

These eggs were very popular in Brazil as well (dinky toy and all). I usually would receive a few from my my students. My dad made his traditional Italian Easter bread (with the colored egg in the center for decoration). I'll try to take a photo and send it to you before we cut into it.
