Each Easter I make Easter Nests with my children. We make green rice krispie treats, roll them in balls and place eggs (jelly beans) in the nests. It's an easy treat, so the kids can do a lot of the work. We always share them with their friends at pre-school as well. I remember making these Easter treats with my mom as a child and now I am passing the tradition on to my children. Hopefully, my children will pass this tradition on with their little ones when they become parents.

2. I would buy Rice Krispies brand cereal, but after being diagnosed with Celiac disease, I can no longer eat gluten: wheat, barley (malt, malt syrup, malt flavoring, etc.) and I cannot tolerate anything made in a wheat producing facility because I am super sensitive. If the Rice Krispies formula were changed some . . . ! I use a gluten free rice cereal to make Rice Krispies now.
