yay for new place Sumi!
mmm... breakfast.
I believe that on time means 5 minutes early, but no one is truely late untile 15 minutes late. Traffic around here sort of messes that up. Lucktle ily that seems to mesh with most people I know. And now I work with teens that really aren't 100% in charge of thier schedule - so I have to let go a little
Traffic totally does change things in ways you can't plan. I mean, daily congestion you plan for but random things are just random. Driving to my folks varies by thirty minutes without commuting or any actual situations. It just is.
I don't begrudge people with traffic. I do think I can arch a brow when my brother says he'll be somewhere at noon, I call at 12:30 and he only left five minutes ago. That's not traffic, that's not caring. Because he doesn't call either to update.
I colored eggs today. I love that part of Easter. There's a picture of me (FB) holding a wax crayon that looks like I stealth smoke. I just needed to block the color, man. Anyone would be holding that.
I colored eggs today too! We made "tie-dyed" eggs. They turned out super cute.
How do you tie-dye? I did multicolor but nothing near so elaborate. I would like to tie-dye next year. People need to keep having kids so as to continue having a pool of small humans for me to dye Easter eggs with in the future. And Monday? Confetti egg salad.
Cass, I will totally dye eggs with you sans small humans.
I win!
I really like coloring eggs. And, apparently, it's a bonus that I will then take the eggs to make egg salad sandwiches. That look like confetti if I have my way.
It's food you are encouraged to play with, I don't see the downside. Apart from looking like I mirder clowns in my spare time. But fingers will get over being stained.

We did that at one of the houses I work at, last week. I dunno how you did it, but we had spent a happy Saturday scouring second hand stores for silk ties, then took apart the ties, wrapped the eggs in the silk, then wrapped the wool lining around that, rubber bands around that, into a pot of boiling water with 2 tbs of vinegar, and boiled for ten minutes. They came out very nifty looking. [link]
Whoo, the Vampire Ball is over for another year. It was a lovely time, and there were no drama storms.
Glad you had fun! I am suffering from an epic bout of insomnia. Can't say I've missed it.
Yay for lack of bad drama.
I saw a thing with coloring eggs in shaving cream with swirled color that looked interesting. This is the first year I didn't color eggs, mostly because I am not eating them. I am having a good sized crowd today so there are a couple dozen mini baskets on the table. Lots of good food. It is warm so swimming will happen and billiards competitions inside.
The wind was blowing in the right direction for me to hear the music and singing from the sunrise services on the beach. Reminder to self to check that out. The only part of religious ceremony that I enjoy is the music. Music plus beach is good.
