Nowadays, Good Friday is a much more palatable affair. Not only is it a national holiday, but we get to eat hot cross buns. Plus we also get to watch Ben-Hur on television.
The holiday period reaches it's climax with Easter Sunday. We celebrate this day with rabbit and chicken imagery, and the salad dodgers' favourites, chocolate eggs.
Unfortunately, there are always villains eager to take advantage of the festivities to satisfy their own evil ends. It has come to my attention, that throughout the period of Lent, catholic priests wear vestments of the same colour as Cadbury Dairy Milk wrappers. A colour easily identified with chocolate to any child in the country. Hence the grooming begins.
Catholic priests, fluffy bunnies and chocolate. Some naïve fat catholic boys might soon find lettuce slightly more appealing in the days to come.
Never mind chocolate eggs, someone is getting poked in the chocolate starfish.
ReplyDeleteWhy do adults make kids go on Easter egg hunts? Isn't it just making work for both themselves and the kids alike. The adults have to get up early to hide the eggs. Then they have to stand around offering encouragement to impatient kids as they scramble about getting filthy dirty looking for their chocolate booty. Wouldn't it just be easier to give the kids the chocolate?
ReplyDeleteI don't care what it's all about, just as long as I get my chocolate egg.
ReplyDeleteSo what would you do for a chocolate egg Sally?
ReplyDeletePerhaps I should dip something in chocolate and offer it to you to taste.
DeleteAre you trying to tempt me guys x
DeleteMy parents were cheap. I just got a painted chickens egg.
ReplyDeleteI love Easter. There is no such thing as too much chocolate.
ReplyDeleteLook at the size of you. There clearly is such a thing as too much chocolate.
DeleteBut it does seem to be possible to have too much salad.
DeleteI must confess, I do enjoy being showered with gifts of chocolate at this time of year. Sex and chocolate go together so well. I suppose that that is what this post is all about. Although I'm more in favour of chocolate and legal sex.
ReplyDeleteI celebrated Easter with sex and chocolate x
DeleteI will be receiving a Hotel Chocolat Easter egg....totally divine.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter......my messed up friends.
