Happy Easter my sweet O-Fam! I know that this is a special and joyous day for many of you!
It looks like it is going to be a nice day here, the sun is shining and we should be near 60*. I *finally* mopped my kitchen floor yesterday. Then I had to do it again after scott spilled coffee. Then had to wipe a few more spots later, then had to do the same after I spilled crap. See? This is why I shouldn't even bother, right?
I know Phyllis will be proud of me on this one- I started scrubbing at my fridge, and stove and got a bit winded. So I called my mom to say hi and to make myself take a break. well, my mom was so stressed about everything, getting mad at my dad and my brother (who wasn't even there!) and I had to tell her to chill out. I knew she was getting into that Bad Head Loop (I know that one well, personally LOL) and had to yell at her a bit to get her to stop it. She gets worked up, my dad and brother start to needle her and instead of telling them to shut up, it ends up eating at her. For Years. No lie/exaggeration. Years.
But she called me back a bit later and said that she was feeling better. She always says I am right but she has a hard time changing how she reacts. Don't we all?
Anyway, we are having Easter up here, but the only thing I am cooking are Deviled Eggs. And I think only my parents and Leah's mom are coming so it will be small and cozy.
Sara, by the time the kids got "ready" to dye the eggs, I was ready to move on to my next project, so I didn't really get to enjoy it as much as I had hoped. But they had fun and I guess that is what matters. And I didn't take one photo. I am in a photo-rut. Scrap rut, photo rut, its so bad.
Yum yum!! I really want to come to your house!!! Sounds so good! Did you ever post the recipes for the salted caramel bars? If not, can you do that for me, they sound soooo good!
I wanted to make Matzoh Crack but never got around to that either.
That is too bad about your cousin. Its a hard choice but you can only handle so much drama.(OTOH, I swear that all of you must think the same about me and my crazy life!!!! if I didn't know I was real, I would think I was a Troll for sure!!! :rofl
Have a great day!
Nancy-- all of those walks!! Awesome! Are legs sore at all? I was able to get a walk in yesterday with my friend. It was cold when the wind blew but nice when it wasn't.
Eva- hah!! At least you made out ok with the vacuuming. Its kind of a boring holiday for me as well. But at least we get Italian Easter Pie!!!yum!!! Cait went down this year to help my mom so between the two of us, we can continue the tradition when my mom no longer can.
laurie- hope that you had some good music or tv on while you were doing all of that cutting.
I am so excited, Orphan Black started Season 2 last night!
Sara, do you watch that? If you don't, I think that you will like it. Sort of sci-fi, geeky stuff, but just amazing.
Enjoy your dinner today Laurie- are any of the kids coming or will it just be you and YMG?
Trudy and Phyllis and everyone else- hope you are all enjoying good food and family time!
xoxo
