Thursday #206 - Easter Parade!

[RedHedd]

I guess everyone's out shopping for their Easter bonnets, Mario. Looks like it's just you and me, kid. Let's start coloring Easter eggs! I'll start hardboiling the eggs, you mix the dye. Maybe Gini will stop by with some Peeps.

We're going to need a whole slew of Peeps here in San Francisco. We're decorating the Peep-mobile for the Union Street Easter Parade. Oh, they're using Pez too - it's going to be phun!

Oh, dear. Mario! Your tongue is purple!

[DrKym]

Sorry RH was out buying Easter treats for the bar ! I brought these chocolate bunnies just for you though! The stores were wiped out of peeps I thinks gini arrived before me, but I did manage to snag all their pez!

Could I have a Vodka and 7 PLEASE! the stores were a madhouse!
Mario put that fake grass back! No dont strew it all over like that

Chocolate bunnies. Now that sounds good. Didn't know there was a peepmobile.

I call dibbies on the chocolate bunny ears

[Edwina's Secretary]

I brought the Easter bonnet....



Anyone for a slice?

[Killearn Kitties]

Good heavens! I'm not sure I would want to eat anything that colour! It's only once a year, I suppose. Oh go on - and I'll have a chocolate bunny too please.

Wish me luck, i'm going to brave making Pysanky Eggs this year (also known as Ukranian Easter Eggs) -- if they work out i'll post some pictures. In the meantime, heres some from Google Images - Pysanky

Also, since its a chocolate theme, can I have a chocolate martini please?

Oh good plan! I'll have one of those as well as everything else!

Those eggs look awfully elaborate! Have you been doing a bit of practice?

Nope, no practice... i'm gonna jump in feet first (like all my craft projects), and see what happens

*it may turn into a tragic mess, but we'll see!*

I have more PEEPS too!!!

Can you believe it? We are to get SNOW tonight!!! WHAH!!! There goes my lilacs!!!

It was almost 90 two days ago!!!

Hi, Mario! You look cute with a purple tongue!!! Now leave that cake alone. You can't wear it!!!

[Killearn Kitties]

MOFF!!! Snow!!! When lilacs are out? You're kidding!

[momoffuzzyfaces]

MOFF!!! Snow!!! When lilacs are out? You're kidding!

Sadly, I'm not!!! I feel so gyped!!! I waited all year for them to bloom, now SNOW!!! At least I got hundreds of pictures to hold me until next year!!! The pictures just don't smell as good though!!!

Three days ago it hit 80 degrees and this morning on my way to the metro I looked out the bus window and it was SNOWING Just a few light flurries but still!! Oh great... Mario has icing in his ears

[Lady's Human]

While we're on a chocolate theme, I think I'll take a cup of coffee with some Godiva chocolate liqueur in it.

On second though, I'll take a pot of coffee with the Godiva in it.

Can I steal some of the peeps, Gini? Chocolate doesn't travel well, and I'm off on the road to OK again this weekend.

Edwina's Secretary, I think that Easter bonnet is too pretty to eat! Blue Frog, I hope your Pysanky eggs turn out beautifully. Lady's Human, I'll put on another pot of joe so I can have a cup with Godiva liqueur in it, too. You all can have my jelly beans and chocolate Easter eggs. I'm holding out for Easter Sunday for blessing bread (sweet bread with golden raisins - delicious toasted and doesn't even need butter). I'm being lazy this year and getting it at the bakery. It's hard to wait - I wonder what would happen if I eat it before it's been blessed? Mario, is that Easter egg dye on your fingers?
