I was glad that we didn't have to rush around on Easter morning so that we'd have plenty of time to make resurrection rolls. I've seen it on Pinterest for the past couple years and have wanted to make them. Bennett totally loved it! This was a great activity for someone who is supposed to doing calm activities. Henry even felt like getting in on the action.
They were super simple and extra delicious. It was an easy way to remind Bennett about the Easter story. Basically you take a marshmallow and it represents Jesus. You dip it in butter and sugar/cinnamon to represent the oil and spices that anointed His body. Last, you wrap the marshmallow in a crescent roll that represents the tomb. Cook them, the marshmallow melts, and the tomb is empty!

Resurrection rolls are an interesting concept. I was curious how they would translate into the Resurrection of Jesus. Seems like the marshmellows just disappear. They never reappear? I think the marshmallows should have to reappear if we are calling them Ressurection rolls. Otherwise, Jesus is just disappearing. The point is, he reappeared and then ascended into heaven.
As a Catholic, I find these mildly sacrilegious. The devil is very tricky Lindsey, so don't fault yourself for falling for his Pinterest tricks. People of loose moral fiber often do. Just be thankful the Lewis family has me.
