lol, I think it's a travesty not to take advantage of this. They are buying Jesus merchandise like crazy on ebay during Easter, and you can keep phoning up The Church of Latter Day Saints for more complimentary Jesus DVD's and postcards... etc.
I made about £94 last year, which isn't that much, but bearing in mind that it was clean, expense free profit, I will always raise a glass to my dear friend Jesus for picking up the tab when I bought my ipod.

What I enjoy most about Easter is the Christians taking part in celebrations that, at the root, are pre-Christian celebrations of spring and fertility. Blinded to their own ruse. Watching them revering the reproductive powers of rabbits, fetching ovums into their baskets, and feasting on known aphrodisiacs... it's a beautiful time of year.  Gives a new meaning to the term "Christ is Risen!" Too bad we'll need to wait until May to watch them dance around the giant phallus. Though, I've noted some of those "big-eared" bunny chocolates have quite large "ears" indeed! No amount of proselytizing can erase human nature! Hail the Carnal Human! Hail Satan!

The only thing I'm allergic to, aside from Brazil Nuts, is Easter Lillies. When I get ear them I turn red and I can't breathe.
I happen to live very closed to a city billed as "The Easter Lily Capital," where they grow millions of them. Of course, they are all blooming. I can hardly go outdoors.
I hate Easter. If "April Fools Day" wasn't already taken I'd change it's name.

HAVE A HAPPY ZOMBIE DAY!!!!  I totally dig Good Friday, 'cause it's like totally Goth, dude. I also like to put the sound of nails being hammered into wood on my answering machine.  When I was living with my family, every single goddamn Easter I would get a splitting headache : Church in the morning, goddamn Easter hat, fucking sunlight, pastel colors, and chocolate on an empty stomach.  Fuck Easter! Hail Satan! Ortrud

You know what the best part of Easter is, right?
The day after...
When all of the candy is on sale and you get to bite all of the bunnies heads off!
bwahahahaha!
Easter is just ridiculous.
Hails!

Tomorrow is Good Friday, the day that you "can't" eat any meat! (at least acording to Catholic tradition, because if you eat meat it's like you are eating The[ir] Lord Jesus Christ!)
So, just to be against the norm, tomorrow I will buy a nice, greasy, suculent tripple cheeseburger, for my lunch. I love the faces of horror of coworkers and people around me.
Hey, look, I'm eating your god! Mmmm and it tastes good! Yum, yum!

I don't know how to break this to you...but they aren't real  Yeah I know...it sucks. 
I personally hate the day, but, like you said, it's get together with the in-laws time, which isn't bad. Pops-in-law likes openining up his liquor cabinet for me. I just have to knock my brother-in-law down to get the good stuff.
