My brother used to work the boats that fueled your industry, Alex. Also was a crab fisherman, a very dangerous occupation.

Heh- I just noticed this was the Easter candy thread. From Robin's Eggs to tomalley to canned salmon.......I love our site.:D

Well, maybe the Easter Bunny likes to bring canned salmon to some lucky children. :)

I just had Robins Eggs for breakfast in the car on my way back from the pharmacy. Madzer's got a cold so I ran to get some meds but she's also given up candy for Lent (not my idea but whatever) so I had to sneak my breakfast in the car on the way back.

OK.. I'm going to try to tie this thread together...



SCRIPTURE FISH!

No?

To hell with it...

But where are the scripture lobster livers?

Do they come kosher? ;)

I blame the LoT... I just went to store for dinner and picked up Robin Eggs, caramel eggs and some kissables. I am perparing to eat my first caramel egg for the year ....now :D

Mmm... Reese's Eggs. They’re like individually wrapped peanut buttery orgasms...

Ahem, uh, yeah, anyway. Dig the Easter candy. When I was a kid in Sunday school (I think I was five or six) we were given paper and crayons and told to draw a picture of Easter. Well, I apparently missed the actual instructions dictating pictures of The Easter, and when we all finished and everyone held up little kid drawings of Jesus rising, rocks being rolled away, etc. I was the only one holding up a drawing of me, and a basket full of purple plastic grass, with a chocolate bunny that was missing an ear. Yep, for Little Jeffrey, Easter was all about the candy. Christ rose to save our sweets.

Oh, and I, being a Jelly Bean aficionado, love this time of year for its explosion of all sorts of varieties of beans. It's like a world full of little pieces of heaven.

Normally, I'm not a huge jelly bean fan (unless there are green ones, in which case, I will promptly eat them all up), but I have to admit, the special edition Easter jellybeans that come in yellow, blue, pink and purple are addictive!
