Happy Easter everyone. We're coloring eggs tonight. Tomorrow we play our traditional Italian Easter egg cracking game after a nice lunch of home-made ravioli. The game goes like this (you need gambling money -- pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters for the big wheels who are feeling very lucky):
One person takes a hard-boiled Easter Egg and challenges someone else to see whose egg will crack. The two people hold their eggs kinda tightly in their fist with one of the smaller ends sticking out a bit. Then they crack their eggs together and whoever's egg cracks gives the money they bet to the other person. When all the eggs are cracked on both ends, the person who made the most money is the winner and I made egg salad. It's a fun game because it's all in good fun and it works for every age -- from 1 - whatever and there don't seem to be any special techniques that work better than others (though some people think they have a special technique or lucky egg). We've been playing this game at Easter for 3 generations and we'll be playing it in Michigan while other family members are playing it in Massachusetts and Italy. Perhaps someday we'll play it in SoWal.
Happy EASTER!

The rain is falling on this Easter Morning in SoWal. Too bad for the kids, but great for my garden and allergies. :clap_1: We haven't had rain for a long, long time.

Still coming down over here; maybe it will really rain all day once the temps gets up a bit--too bad for the kids, but great for the flowers and veggies!
