Happy Easter everyone! ^_^

...and you have a Happy Easter too :-)

Happy pagan fertility day! :D

So what did everyone find in their easter baskets?

I found a shiny, brand new...hubcap for my car!

I got a Simpson's shirt that says "I see dumb people." :D

A plush Cadbury bunny that clucks when you squeeze it's paw, a My Little Pony keychain (my mommy and I are very nostalgic people), Peeps ("Sugared Birds" ... *snort*), and lotssssss of chocolate...

I had never heard of peeps until a fgew days ago when the paper ran an artivle on them. am I missing anything? and how ridiculously sheltered have I been from corporatized holidays in this country?

Next, let me introduce you to this guy named "Santa Claus"...

I'm not usually this bad. but seriously, what are these marshmellow things like? yummy? gross? should I try them? between this and trcik or treating, I feel like I missed out on some really big parts of being a kid in this country. and for some odd reason they all seem to involve candy...

Ever eaten a sugar-covered marshmallow? That's about all you're really getting out of it.

ah. sounds, um...lovely. I guess I'm not really missing out on anything then.

Like I said earlier, put them in the microwave and watch them grow, then you'll really be getting a show!

WHAMMY YOU'VE NEVER HAD A PEEP BEFORE!?!!!?! you poor thing. they're delicious. and yes they ARE lovely.

they exoand in microwaves? what chemicals do they put in those things? they can't be healthy. at all. if you're so concerned sputnik, save me some, and give them to me next time I visit.

The expanding in microwaves is only due to water evaporating, not any chemicals. Nearly the same thing happens with baked potatoes or eggs, except they explode instead of expand.
