happy day after your birthday, Pete!
Oh, yes, this too!

The lamb cake had an unfortunate case of head being separated from body when I took it out of the mold. However, toothpicks and lots of frosting reattached it.
The cake looks slightly pink, due to bits of red velvet cake smearing in the frosting. But the judicious over-application of coconut seems to have made it very faint. I'm hoping no one notices until they cut it.

I saw daffodils this morning!

Heh. That lamb will bleed. Blood of Christ, dipped in cocoanut.

Nice lamb!
I am freecycling like MAD today. I wonder if there is a max on what you can post on offer.
Lots of stuff for the donation center too. We are getting a dumpster next week for the stuff that can't go to either.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
The omelettes were so delicious. The lamb cake looks great! You'd never know it had been re-headed.

I am making chicken soup and dreading going back to work tomorrow. Not because I hate my job, but dear god, have I procrastinated this week?
And it's test prep week tomorrow. Bleargh.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Yummy lamb-cake!
DH is just starting the prep on our Easter dinner. I got up at 5:45 a.m. so I could get to church in time to warm up for the 7:15 service. It's cold and wet and soggy and all kinds of gloomy, but church itself was wonderful. The Hallelujah Chorus never sounded better. It's usually quite a bit sloppy because we invite anyone from the congregation who wants to sing to come join us--which means everything from a soloist from the Seattle Choral Society to people who've never actually sung it before and just kinda shout "Hallelujah" at random intervals. But our director has really been drilling the regulars on it, and it came together pretty well at the first two services. At the third, about a page in I realized that we were hitting EVERYTHING. It absolutely clicked. I had chills down my spine singing, we got a sustained ovation, and the pastor said, "That was AMAZING."
So, I had a good Easter already, and my husband is getting ready to roast a large chunk of pork. Life is good.
