For the first time ever, we did all the commercialized Easter celebrations today, so that we could have a more peaceful and thoughtful day tomorrow. Here are my 3 lessons of the day:
1: (Nearly) nine year old boys like to combine all their’s and their brother’s candy together, then they will have twice as much! (Nearly) six year old boys think this is fair game to eat both of the Cadbury eggs and Reese’s bunnies. It is not okay by the (nearly) nine year old, and then daddy is forced to give up his to make the crying stop.
2: Edible Easter basket grass may be edible, but it is not palatable. It tastes like over cooked, dried out rice and sticks to your tongue like a magnet making young children gag and refund previously eaten Easter candy. I do not recommend buying it. And in case you are wondering- kids thought that since it was edible they would try to feed it to the dog, so they threw it all over the living room and then we found out that it also sticks to feet and hands in the same manner as it does the tongue.
3: When making an Easter dinner, I do not recommend combining asparagus and strawberries- both natural aphrodisiacs- with turkey. You end up feeling randy but too tired from all the tryptophan in the turkey to do anything about it.
Hopefully tomorrow will not be filled with as many sugar highs and crashes as it as today, And I swear, if one more piece of grass sticks to my feet….
