Re: Are y'all ready for Easter?

Lol. I bought jelly beans to make a little Easter candy treat I didn't get around to this past weekend. I saw it in a magazine. Fudge brownies, topped with Chinese noodles cooked with marshmallows to form nests on top of the brownies. Jelly beans for eggs. Peeps birds for the mama's. It's probably g...

Re: Are y'all ready for Easter?

Mau, you said Easter "snuck up" on you this year. I think it did that to everybody, since it was early. I prefer April Easters. And I had zero energy to plan a nice meal at home. Consequently I'm determined to celebrate it as a season this year (which technically it is; it lasts through Pe...

Re: How the Irish Celebrate St Patrick's Day

If you have Irish ancestry but no Catholics, your Irish ancestry is probably Scotch-Irish, from the north (think Belfast). Several centuries ago the English imported a lot of Scottish Protestants (Presbyterian mostly) to the north of Ireland, a sort of colonization project. That's why even today, th...

Re: Easter Bunny Lore: What's your favorite version?

Another movie of this type I own but rarely watch is Quo Vadis. I saw the movie on tv as a girl and liked it, though I'm not sure it's aged especially well. I believe it won an Oscar or two back in the day, though. Anyway, when I was about 15 I read the novel on which it was based and loved it. I'm ...

Re: G Fuel

So is G Fuel a type of soft drink, or perhaps an energy drink? I've never heard of it.

Re: Are y'all ready for Easter?

Well, we are hyper involved at our church. My husband and I both sing in the choir, so we started the week with two services on Sunday. Then we had a Weds rehearsal. Last night was Maundy Thursday, so, another performance. Tonight is Good Friday, so we'll sing again. On Easter itself there are three...

Re: Easter Bunny Lore: What's your favorite version?

I just watched Passion of the Christ this morning. It's my Good Friday movie. That said, lots of Christians don't like that film because it is truly horrific. I think, though, that if I'm going to claim to be Christian, I really should watch it once a year. No matter how bad it gets, it's probably n...

Re: Catching up

I haven't seen any of the newer Ghostbusters movies, but I've heard that the more recent ones (not the lady cast) are pretty good. I'm certainly hoping my older son can find his SO while I'm still young enough to enjoy grandchildren. For that matter, I wish they all would. You reach a point with adu...

Re: Catching up

So great to hear from you, HH, and many congrats to your grandaunt on her birthday! I've never been to Universal, but everybody around here says it's superior to Disney World. I haven't been to Disney World since before I was married, so I can't talk about what it might be like now. Each of my kids ...
