<h3>Description:</h3>
<p data-start="0" data-end="79">Eggs. Bunnies. Chocolate logistics that raise more questions than answers. <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f430.png" alt="🐰" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f95a.png" alt="🥚" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
<p data-start="81" data-end="208">Meanwhile, under the sea, we’re imagining bioluminescent egg hunts, judgmental eels, and a holiday that glows instead of melts.</p>
<p data-start="210" data-end="287">Celebrate however you like—just maybe don’t drop the plastic grass overboard.</p>
