Easter Sunday

[xifeng]

East0r r00lz. :D We watched the tail end of The Ten Commandments last night (of course it wasn't shown today or anything). Mom observed that Charlton Heston had a great voice for Biblical words such as "iniquity" and "smite" and all that, which is fair enough when you see him as Moses; she said, "He could be a lector!" To which I said that if Chuck Heston was a lector, I would totally come to church (albeit for all the wrong reasons).

Dinner was ham and potato loaf and green beans--nothing that took too long to make, but tasty all the same. Oh, and we actually found strawberries (not yet in season, alas), so we had shortcake for dessert. Huzzah!

I suspect I may be coming down with something; I feel that vague kind of offness that suggests something is coming, but I'm not outright sick. Still, my throat is raspy for no real reason, and I've been sneezing all day today. If this is allergies, it's almost a good sign; the pollen means the weather is getting warmer, which would be great.

Bed now.

I had ham and mashed potatoes. Yummy! Had Greek pastries too. I'd the dough. Heh.

Mmm, haaaaaaaam. And Greek pastries! Hurrah!

We too had ham. And deliciously bad for one's cholesterol count corn pudding. And yams.

Is it an unspoken Easter dinner requirement to have strawberry shortcake? Because we did, too, although instead of ham, we broke what I guess is meant to be an Easter tradition, and we ate steak.

But then again, this part of my family isn't very religious, so such traditions aren't that life-altering when we change them. Your family, I imagine, has much different views on that.

Talyn is stalking Lee: Y/N?

Well, we're not devastated if we don't get East0r ham. Sometimes we have lamb of leg instead. :9 Also we had garlic potato loaf and green beans, if you wanted to compare side dishes. I would only think this were a kreepy case of weird synergisms if you had to duplicate my East0r dinner EXACTLY DOWN TO THE LAST SMIDGEN.

Well, Easter Mass (when I was growing up) was always part of the whole deal, but generally we're pretty easygoing about the food bits, though we usually have ham. And candy.
