Closer than my Peeps you are to me (Easter thread)

That right, even though you may still have snow on the ground, springtime has arrived and it's time to celebrate the festivals of Eostre (any Australians about to give me lip about how it's actually fall there, shut up your hemisphere is the loser hemisphere shut up shut up shut up). Having survived the cold winter months, Easter is a time when we celebrate the returning warmth by getting naked in the bedroom and banging like rabbits.

Of course, the consequence of all this springtime sex is babies, symbolized by the chocolate eggs and bunnies we consume during these festivals. Endulge in all the cheap chocolate and unadulterated sugar you can find, Lent is over and it's time to start enjoying yourself again.

If you're wondering what all of this has to do with the resurrection of our lord and savior Jesus Christ, I ask you what evergreen trees have to do with the birth of a Jewish man in the Middle East.

Special shoutouts to Shaggy, who apparently is still performing.

    For Easter I received some mini eggs, 5 creme eggs, a chocolate rabbit, and four large chocolate Euro coins. The latter was because "they were lying about the house", thanks ma. I was not expecting anything so I am very lucky bugger.

    Those peeps look so cute aargh.

    Yesterday (Saturday) I ran an airsoft game where we played capture the eggs, shot eggs and ate eggs, and people wore bunny ears and were hunted by the other players. There were no pictures taken, sorry, we were too busy eating chocolate.

    It's a way to make gluttons feel less self-conscious at the checkout. Like "Serves 2" microwave meals - you can pretend to the cashier that you will be sharing that lasagne with somebody, maybe adding a garden salad, despite both of you knowing that in two hours you'll be sitting alone in front of the TV eating it directly out of the container.

    Or maybe that's just me.

    And then on the flipside over here, Twix has an advertising campaign consisting of "Two for me, none for you."

    The nightmare before Easter.

  • Bé ChuilleBé Chuille Registered User regular
    Got a Lindt egg! Having a big roast dinner with my family and grandmother. Everyone is pottering around my nanas house prepping food. It's especially nice this year as she hasn't really been well, she's possibly got early stage dementia and is recovering from a 3 week stint of bed rest. Seeing her help make dinner is making me grateful to still have her around.

    In other news my mom got us a little malteasers cardboard bus filled with chocolate bunnies! She treats us like kids for certain things and we all milk it XD

    I haven't had any mini eggs this year though and that NEEDS to be fixed.

    My wife is prepping a dish for Easter.

    I'm watching her.

    She shreds potatoes... Ok

    Next seasoning... Good

    Now a can of cheese soup... Interesting

    Now half a cup of butter...

    Now 16oz of sour cream...

    Then a finely chopped onion.


    "So this is a healthy dish?" I ask her.

    "Yup"

    I've never had a Peep, but I dislike marshmallows, so.

    We grabbed a big BJs bag of easter candy on Friday, and my mother boiled eggs to dye later (which I thought was neat).

    I hated Easter candy as a kid so I would get a little present with some chocolates as my basket. I'll probably still only eat Reeses eggs.

    That sounds terrible.

    Give it to me and I'll get rid of it...

    My wife texted her dad "Happy Easter."

    This was his response...

    " Thanks, I'm so ready to meet my maker. I'm just hopeful that I'll see you and your family in heaven."


    WHAT?

    these are the best

    5608925774_4beba43300.jpg


    they're chocolate "eggshells" with a creamy mousse filling. they're bigger than cadbury's, but they're also less viscous and sweet, meaning you don't want to die immediately after eating one

    Regular peeps are unpleasant, but there are these chocolate and peppermint ones (basically peppermint bark) around Christmas time which are actually really good.

    I got a few of them in an after-Christmas sale, and they were just mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    I will go pick up some cheap post-easter candy tomorrow or some other time later this week.

    Not too much though. Trying to cut down.

    Well were going to start getting ready for dinner at my sister's house.

    First time her fiancee's family and mine are getting together.

    My mom will be there, shes bringing my uncle who moved in with her because he has nowhere else to go. They are both angry alcholics. Super excited.
