Tell Otto it might rhyme, but it's a different beast altogether! I don’t know about in the States, but in the UK it’s “lamb” at Easter, not “ham”.

I laughed out loud when I read it. And now I re-told it to you, giggling the whole time. I probably could have gotten away with the first laugh because it was in private, but the public recounting? Now I am going to hell for certain. Thanks a lot, Mir. I read somewhere that nothing says “Jesus has risen!” like a thick slice of ham. I laughed out loud when I read it.

Because Jesus was the Lamb of God, right? But yesterday it prompted my son to ask if we were eating Jesus. Which led to a discussion of communion. Which we then took at evening services. Where he announced (LOUDLY) that he would like some more Jesus to eat, please. God help me. We eat lamb on Easter. Because Jesus was the Lamb of God, right?

I felt the pressure of the in-laws and was out at 5pm at CVS buying plastic eggs and jelly beans for the impromptu Easter egg hunt that pictures will prove I DID NOT DEPRIVE my son. I really don't think this is what Jesus had in mind when he rose from the dead, but that's just me. I am so Jones-ing for those peanut butter whatevers.

Everyone in my family knows to bring me Yellow Peeps for Easter....Halloween....Christmas... do they make them for Fourth of July yet? The chocolate stuffed ones are yummy. Er... I digress. You need two things. 1) be addicted to something that moves quickly off the store shelf. 2) Tell Otto not to buy you Yellow Peeps until the day before Easter.
