It's over in a day, and unlike Christmas the advertising is relatively low key.

If one has to wait for retail to close to spend time with fammily, one is in very deep doo-doo to begin with.

Marion- thanks for the heads up..... however, some people have to work for a living, including my children. Retail is where they work.... but thanks for your insight.

"Chocolate Jesus" by Tom Waits! Love those immaculate confections. Enjoy:

wow, happy birthday Roedapple, imagine that! you were born on easter! hey, cool.

Cathy^above, we had the hotcross buns homemade, took to church for the breakfast, got totally whiped out! delicious.

great OTS! I'm with Deklan: "Candy!" I think OTS should ask the kids more often, and see what we get.

OTS: "will the South Lawrence Trafficway be completed in your lifetime?" "do you prefer developers or environmentalists?"

or "will KU go to the final 4" asked at schwagler elementary.

my answer: I do appreciate the resurrection celebrated in what is oddly called easter sunday. the music and the message at church today.
the breakfast was good too.

Roe, nice try...but I believe the dog in the picture to your link was much older than the mere pup you are in your picture - remember, we are online...most people do not know what you actually look like. Act as I do and pretend you are twenty years and twenty pounds lighter/younger. The hat did resemble the authentic hat though...

I hope your birthday brought a ton of yelps your way. Did you have to compete with the Easter Bunny for attention?

Thanks gnome, hope I can make it to the next three April 12th Easters.
