HOLIDAY MASCOT SERIES: Interview with The Easter Bunny 2025- Making Amends -Lanai Jarrico Reporting
I’ve gone an entire year since speaking to the Easter Bunny. He was upset about a prank gone wrong when I “accidentally” switched his shampoo with Nair and he spent the better part of the year in hiding while growing back his fur. After tracking him down at a local park, I apologized, and he accepted. We sat down to partake in some easter grass together.
Lanai: Hey you, I just wanted to apologize for that prank I pulled on you last year. I can’t believe the other mascots didn’t warn you. In my defense, that was one wild mascot party. Whatever strain of grass that was passed around last year. It was potent and I wasn’t in the right frame of mind. Quite frankly I was high AF and it was funny at the time.
Easter Bunny: *rolls eyes* Don’t remind me. I was so pissed at you for that. I almost bombed your house with spoiled easter eggs but got chased away by that feral thing you call a cat.
Lanai: You mean my next-door neighbor? He’s not a cat, he’s a furry and I’m glad he had my back. I would have been pissed and this pranking back and forth would have escalated to the next level of friendly combat.
Easter Bunny: No worries! I don’t have the time or energy to continue with the animosity and fallout from any further drama with you Ms. Jarrico. The other mascot and I would like to form a truce. We understand the nature of your work and are willing to work with you under the conditions you stop pranking and harassing us.
Lanai: Fine.
Easter Bunny: You are a competitive and fierce woman. You have proven that so I am glad we agree on peace. So, I assume you want to do an interview about Easter. How can I help?
Lanai: Thank you for the flowers. I appreciate it. *sparks the doobie and takes a hit, coughs and passes it* So, last year, how did the day end up going for you?
Easter Bunny:*takes a hit* Well… after searching the marketplace for a suitable bunny onesie, I was able to deliver easter baskets across the grid without shame and embarrassment. I even made a new friend. *passes it back*
Lanai: Oh Yeah? I’m glad it all worked out and Easter went on without delay. I heard about your falling out with the Lucky Charms Leprechaun back in mascot College. Sounds like you can use a new buddy.
Easter Bunny: OMG that little imp. I got kicked off Mascot College campus because he didn’t know how to keep his mouth shut about the little grass operation we were involved in. For the record he is the one with all the connections. I was just distributing products that he supplied.
Lanai: I see. He was a snitch and you took the downfall. Yea I got the sense he couldn’t be trusted to do a crime around. So, Tell me about your new friend and then we can discuss your Easter plans. *Takes a hit and passes it back*
Easter Bunny: TY. *sparks it back up takes a hit and goes into a coughing fit*
OMG…That’s some good shit right there! Anyway, During my Easter delivery route, I had to take a potty break. I came across a vampire crying in the alley near a local Blood bank and I was compelled to go over and talk to him. It turns out the Vampire community is in a crisis. There’s a shortage of blood and many of their drinking spots are trying to pass off cherry Kool Aid as an alternative. When I offered him a hug, he tried to bite me. He snapped back to reality when I slapped him. He apologized and offered to take me to a place where they have the best lap dancers on the grid.
Lanai: So that’s how peeps make up nowadays? So, What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?
Easter Bunny: What?
Lanai: Anyway, I meant to say. Poor Vampires. I hope they figure that out. We don’t need a biting epidemic in Second life.
Easter Bunny: I agree. So, this year my plans were to make my own chocolate easter bunnies with some THC infusion to go along with the Easter basket deliveries. I also wanted to set up a place where avies can go and take pictures with yours truly.
Lanai: Isn’t it kinda weird to make chocolate easter bunnies? Humans don’t go around eating people shaped candy. Why would you encourage eating bunnies? Why not do infused lollipops or gummies? Peeps seem to enjoy those types of candies too. Also, if you want to offer pictures with the easter bunny, I’ll set up a spot at The SL Enquirer Media Center for you, You can also host the annual Easter Egg decorating contest.
Easter Bunny: Hmmmm. I never thought about it that way. I guess you’re right. I’ll see what I can come up with and that would be great!
Lanai: Easter isn’t all about candy and grass filled baskets. What else can you tell me about this holiday and how did you get involved?
Easter Bunny: Well, Bunnies symbolize fertility and new life. We also represent the beginning of spring and the promise of new beginnings.
Lanai: I get the part about rabbits being known for their prolific breeding habits so the symbol of fertility is fitting. Did you know back in the 1920’s up until the 1960’s they used rabbits for pregnancy testing? They would inject a rabbit with a woman’s urine, kill them, and examine their ovaries. If they were enlarged, it showed that the woman was pregnant.
Easter Bunny: Well damn that's an uncomfortable fun fact. I’m glad I’m male!
Lanai: You’re welcome. I’m all about educating the public on facts that don’t make sense. Anyway, so do you have anything else you’d like to talk about or share with our readers before you get started on Easter preps?
Easter Bunny: I just want everyone to have a Happy Easter and to remember to always read the labels to the candy you eat. I don’t want to be held responsible for anyone getting so high they do stuff like switching shampoo with nair or being so plastered they can’t remember the day and the real reason for the holiday.
Lanai: Well said.
HAPPY EASTER YA’LL

The Burrow Coffee Company Reopens-Sheristrawberri Reporting
One of Second Life’s longest running and most popular casual gathering spots has re-opened following a major overhaul of the sim. The Burrow Coffee Co. is open once again and welcoming people back in.
“We began in 2009 in Second Life. Our original name was The Pixel Bean Coffeehouse. A handful of years later we re-branded to what we are today, Burrow Coffee Company,” said Harlow Heslop, the owner and founder of this famed “java joint.”
The name, according to Harlow, is something she randomly came up with. “I was seeking a name that felt cozy and comfortable. And I thought of how little woodland creatures often reside in burrows and it felt fitting for the space.”
Harlow pointed out that cafes and coffeehouses in RL serve as gathering places for members of the community and are a place to make connections.
“I felt SL could use something like that. I also really love coffee and I'm a bit of an addict in RL,” she added with a smile.
“We offer a community of like-minded people, a safe space for anyone to spend time at. We have DJ events, live musicians on occasion, game nights, poetry nights, and more” said Harlow. “And honestly, it's a nice spot to AFK when you need to without being harassed by people,” she added with a laugh.
Harlow pointed out that over the years there have been many changes to the look and layout of the coffeehouse.
“We've been through many different buildings and designs over the years, but our community and concept has stayed very similar,” she said. She describes that community and concept as cozy, happy, interactive with a touch of realism.
This current re-model was designed to incorporate some of the numerous changes that have been happening in SL.
“I wanted to upgrade to something PBR since that is a new feature in Second Life,” said Harlow. “I like to try and keep up with technology and offer the community new things.”
Harlow created the all mesh building and décor herself. She pointed out that she had begun working on the new building a couple of months before the official re-model. She is quite adept at creating such things as she also owns and operates the store Spruce.
“I run a shop called Spruce and make original mesh creations, so I figure why not build my own cafe?” Harlow said she actually began working on the building a couple of months before the official start of the re-model.
The building and the sim as a whole offers many comfortable places for people to relax, meet others, chat, and enjoy a comfortable time. There is plenty of seating both inside and out to accommodate either a group or for people to hold intimate conversations.
The sim also features a stage and dance floor along with a place for those who enjoy table games to play a few.
Regular events are held at the coffee shop and include music, DJs, discussions, and even gaming events. “We have a google calendar you can access via are our socials in the foyer,” said Harlow.
“We actually will have an event once monthly on the first Sunday of each month starting in May that is an inventory sorting hangout,” she added.
When you land at The Burrow Coffee Co. you are requested to use the shared environment which is changed up on a regular basis. The same holds true for the coffee shop’s music which varies from the occasional DJ to an eclectic stream.
“The cafe is very much a group effort. I have an amazing management team filled with wonderful people who really make this place special,” said Harlow, citing that the ever changing windlights are done by Harvey Blackwood and the superb landscaping was done by Aria Christen.
The Burrow Coffee Co. re-opened the first week in April and is currently an Editor’s Pick in the Destination Guide.
“We've been on there so many times over the years. Sometimes we submit to be on it and other times we've been chosen as an Editor's Pick where Linden Lab picks us,” added Harlow.
But that’s to be expected of one of the longest running and most popular gather places in SL.
