Easter joys

[darcydodo]

I wake up, go into the bathroom, and am stunned by the sight of flowers filling the sink and covering the toilet.

OK, not actually filling or covering: there was a basket perched on each of the two, and one of the baskets was actually filled with flowers, while the other had a couple plants and some cheeses and a thing of dry Italian salami and some eggs of chocolatey-goodness and those wonderful little marshmallow chicks. And a Cadbury's caramel egg, because the bastards around here don't sell proper Cadbury's creme eggs. (Bastards.)

Ah, the joys of having parents at Eastertide. (And yes, I know I'm Jewish, that's why I don't have to go to church or do anything daft for Easter.)

Peeps! You got Peeps! Yummy marshmellow chicks! What color did you get? My grandma gave me yellow, blue, pink, and purple ones. Easter just isn't Easter without Peeps. Though Anna strongly disagrees. But she is too picky as it is.

Peeps!

Yellow. And my parents got pink ones for Craig, who said, "Ooh, peeps! Do you want one?" So I said sure and asked if he didn't like them, to which he admitted that he'd never eaten one because everybody always told him how awful they were. Gotta love the boy... :)

I'm glad that you agree with me: they're very yummy! (I have a friend who thinks that they're best if you stick 'em in the fridge. I disagree, but they're not inedible that way, unlike if you stick a York Peppermint Patty in the freezer, which my parents do for some ungodly reason.)

In the fridge? Yuck!

Though Peppermint Patties are best when cold, but not frozen.
