Trading Sleep For Sunlight, Rites of Spring

Spring In My Step
Yeah, yeah - we lost an hour of sleep having to set the clocks one hour ahead last week.  For some of you it's kind of a hardship and you're feeling a little off still.  For me it's like having been sprung from a dark, dank dungeon.  Having the sun still shining brightly until 7:30 p.m. makes getting through the last two months of winter almost tolerable.  My soul is starting to recharge after operating on backup power these last 4 months.  Spring is about rebirth and coming out of a deep cold slumber.  Spring is about all things green and growing.  Spring is for Easter and we all know what that means...



Or my favorite -


My absolute favorite thing about Easter is the return of PEEPS.  Everybody knows peeps are best consumed when stale, after having sat out in the open air for about 3 days or so.  I mean, anybody who doesn't eat their peeps stale is simply uneducated.  Check out what happens when peeps attack...



It doesn't get any better than peanut butter and chocolate, except when it's a chocolate Easter Bunny gettin' jiggy with the peanut butter...


And who doesn't know that the best Easter movie isn't about the Ten Commandments...


There you go, folks - a little something to get you smiling and thinking Spring!

  1. Chocolate Bunny Porn! Yeah, baby :)

    The kids adore Wallace and Gromit thanks to their Aunt Dee. They're forever quoting "the bounce has gone out of his bungee." It took me a year to figure it out until I sat and watched the episode with the sheep on the lose and the yarn shop.
