Friday, 3/30


Oh, really? Five to ten inches of snow for Easter? That IS an April Fools' Day joke, right Mother Nature?

Sigh...

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it's a joke. It looks like there's a good chance of it actually happening tonight through tomorrow, which means that the Easter Bunny may have to set aside a little extra time while it's out delivering jelly beans and hiding eggs. Hopefully, the bunny won't be hiding the eggs outdoors; otherwise, some of them may not be found until, say, June, or whenever it is the snow melts this year.

Sigh. Again.

Oh well; hopefully, the snow won't throw the kibosh into anyone's weekend plans. We're looking forward to a somewhat quiet Easter; usually, we get together with my siblings and their kids and celebrate with lots of food. However, with my brother and his brood going downstate, my sister working, and two of my nieces out of the state, it looks like it'll just be me, Loraine, and my niece Mallory. But we've decided to do the holiday right--

I'm making a big pan of French Toast casserole and we're devouring it. THAT should be a fun Easter, especially with a dish that's (and I'm only slightly kidding here) equal parts French bread, eggs, brown sugar, and cinnamon. You can't go wrong with a dish like that, so even though our numbers will be depleted this year, and we'll be awash in that wet, slippery white stuff, at least we'll be spending the rest of our Easter in a sugar coma.

Not because of jelly beans or chocolate, but because of the casserole.

Hope your Easter is just as yummy, especially if you're in an area with Easter like weather. Unlike, say, those of us who live in the U.P.
