While we may have only just entered March, I like to look ahead to the future. Spring has finally begun to poke its head out from under the snow, and all I can think about it stuff I can do out in the sunlight. You know, like start a new herb garden? That’s not the only bright spot of spring, though—we can’t possibly forget Easter!
Peeps has already announced their momentous comeback for 2021, but that’s not all we’re hyped for. Target is selling a bunny-shaped waffle iron that definitely deserves a spot in your kitchen.
It’s Perfect Fur Easter

This waffle iron is the perfect addition to your Easter breakfast egg-stravaganza. It’s not too different from a mini waffle iron…except that it’s got an adorable bunny pattern right on the waffle.
