Easter Summary

Spend time with family back from Acapulco whilst glaring at their tanned faces and general siesta mentality…check

Stuff face with ham, glazed carrots and wine lots of wine…check

Oh, and a mimosa…check

Watch younger cousins tackle each other in the backyard for multi-colored eggs packed with pocket change and Rolos …check

Watch The Masters golf thingamajig in High Definition, well because Uncle DadsBro got a new High Definition TV…check
(note: men should not wear white pants that make you stare at the crotchal area because white pants show just about everything in High Definition, I am talking to you Rory Sabbatini)

Eat tiniest sliver of key lime pie all the while repeating out loud, “I shouldn’t be eating this, I shouldn’t be eating this, I am on South Beach and all”…check

Go to see a movie after Easter face stuffing – Blades of Glory (hella larious!)…check

See a double feature (dubs feet) because 1 free movie ticket is earned…check

Decide on The Reaping (tres Easter, I know)…check

Queenie and I have this unplanned tradition of going to some crazy assed movies on Easter Sunday. We have not made it home for the last 4 years and for some reason, we end up watching a NON 10 Commandments-type movie.

Year 1, 2004: watched the first two Lord of The Rings and then went to the local budget theatre (the Budge) to see the third… ah the memories of the sticky floor, broken chairs and the illegal substances being consumed.

Year 2, 2005: Apparently I lied. We went home that year. But, in all fairness…my family is a movie.

Year 3, 2006: Scary Movie 4. Yeah… don’t ask.

Year 4, 2007: Blades of Glory. The Reaping. I am messed up.
