@Ragman,
Actually, the question here, now, is what do we call the Saturday after Good Friday......Its All Downhill From Here Saturday?

@dlowan,
It used to be the end of the fasting stuff (how much I forget).

@Ragman,
Traditionally, on "Karfreitag"/"Holy Saturday"/"Easter Eve"/"Black Saturday" well, this Saturday, today, the public outdoor swimming pool (that's lido in proper English) season starts.

Photos taken today in Wannsee (Berlin)

It's not a rabbit but a a hare (we've Easter hares here since 1680 at least - never rabbits)

@Walter Hinteler,
It's a damned rabbit.

People who appear to have invented liver wurst do not get to tell me what is a rabbit and what isn't, so just don't.

@dlowan,
Well, we've invented the Easter hare as well - at least, the first written source about it is in German Cool

@Walter Hinteler,
I suppose German Hares lay eggs, too.

@roger,
Yes. Until tomorrow. And since some weeks.
(The German physician and botanist, who wrote about it, knew that already in 1682 when he wrote his doctoral thesis "De ovis paschalibus" ['About Easter Eggs'].)

@Walter Hinteler,
<sigh>

I bet your eggs are better engineered than ours, too.

@roger,
Normal eggs, yes. But somehow hare eggs aren't regulated by a DIN/ISO.

@Walter Hinteler,
You know what the French say, don't you? One egg is an ouef.
