Easter Egg Hunt

http://www.topsecretrecipes.com/recipes/cremeegg.htm

yeah, once a year, from december to the following october.

easter eggs = uneconomical way to buy chocolate. so mother sends me lindt bars every year (lindt bars are probably just as bad from a chocolate per unit money perspective, just with better chocolate) and every year i tell her not to bother the next year. partly because W12 postmen have a peculiar habit (twice in the last three years) of making me go to the depot (ie the far corner of the lorry park opposite the bbc studios) to pick them up despite them fitting easily through the letterbox.

There is also a Cadburys Creme Egg on my desk but science has finally discovered the ONE FORM of chocolate I don't like and it will remain uneaten.

oh boy

you got ripped off. THEYRE SUPPOSED TO BE CHOCOLATE!

cadbury creme eggs rule. well, the inside anyway. I freeze them then bite the top off, eat the goo inside and throw away the chocolate shell. gold.

Easter Egg Hunt

I am trying really hard not to borrow one of the kids' Creme Eggs right now.

We did this last year in the garden; we filled the eggs with treats and cars... (there were edible eggs later)

We'll do it again tomorrow morning but it won't be in the garden (0C out there as I type).

(Actually, the cars might have been next to the eggs - they clearly wouldn't have fit inside).

For a while I thought that 0C might be a typo. And for a moment I thought the same about 'cars'. But I think I worked it out in the end.

It is so flipping cold!

So cold that now there are a couple of inches of snow covering everything and I am repeating my weekly "curse this windy shitheap of a frozen island, we're emigrating" schtick. On the other hand, I got an Easter Egg this moaning.

where do you live? the Shetlands?

England is situated on a frozen windy rain-lashed shitheap of an island and it's only hypothermic brain damage could make anybody think otherwise.

My girlfriend hid 18 eggs for me in the living room+kitchen while I was still dreaming about broken drumsets in the bedroom. She's the best. She didn't like it when I complained that none of the eggs contained quarters, though.

that sounds delightful.

well, something else that could make one think otherwise, about the English climate: times when it is hot and sunny.

If memory serves, we have had heatwaves in England the last two summers.

and in fact, the temperature in London today is warmer than that in New York City.

for proof of that, type the two cities in here:

Our Easter Egg hunt was a resounding success; Tallulah was almost as adept as her older sister at finding them, they helped each other out and even joined forces to tidy up all the empty plastic shells a couple of hours later. Then Ava did some hard-boiled egg dyeing. We delivered rice krispie treats (which Ava helped to make yesterday) to all the neighbourhood kids this afternoon, decorated with an Ava-painted bunny. Better than Xmas? Well, certainly colder.

There was an easter egg hunt at my brother's place yesterday, he has one kid, my other brother has 2, and somone else had 2 or 3 kids, so it was tremendous fun watching a bunch of 2 to 6 year olds dashing about with their little plastic Wiggles bags, shrieking I FOUND SOME MOOOOOREEE and trotting about proudly with their bags stuffed full. Weather was lovely and overcast mild, the neighbours looked on with a grin, it was very cute.

It's nearly that time again!

I have my eggs ready!

It's technically now Easter Sunday in Britain. Anyone running an Easter Egg Hunt maybe needs to be laying out the eggs now!

I blow eggs and dye them!

No chocolate, but a decent boiled egg. Before that I watched a Christian service from Southark Cathedral. One of the priest fellows gave an exegesis of something a priest chick had just read out; I quite liked it.

After all that the Pope came on and I turned the sound down. He evidently had followers from all over the world, flying their flags and cheering when he mentioned their countries.
