Texas retailers may adjust their hours to allow employees to spend time with their families or take a trip to Galveston Island or Austin. It is expected to be hot, no surprise there, so hanging out near a pool or body of water is a must.

When the weather is nice during the spring, you can expect to smell Texas BBQ on the breeze, but don't forget to stock up on all your Easter basket essentials. Unless you plan on filling them with BBQ burgers.

However, there is one sweet treat you will want to avoid adding to your cart this Easter.
