If you ask Ree Drummond, personalized baskets filled with candy and goodies are like the Christmas stockings of Easter. "I put lip balm for the girls. I'll do makeup and makeup brushes. I've put iPods in Easter baskets," she says. "I usually like to find something to surprise them with." An Easter basket is one of the most exciting and beloved Easter traditions, and the best thing about them is that they can be enjoyed by kids and adults alike, depending on what you add to them.
