Sticky Fingers

I remember Easter being a lot more fun when I was a kid...you know, Easter egg hunts, baskets filled with goodies. As it is now, I've been reduced to pilfering candy from my daughter's basket. Isn't that terrible? Today though, I learned a pretty important lesson.

I grabbed one of those ridiculous pink, plastic eggs out of her basket this morning and threw it into my lunch bag. I thought whatever it was would be a yummy, sweet snack later in the afternoon. Um, not quite.

I grabbed it only a minute ago and pried it open and...there was Play Doh inside. Not candy. I'm disappointed. What did I learn from this? That I shouldn't steal goodies from my daughter's basket? No. I learned that I should shake the plastic eggs and pop them open BEFORE they get tossed into my lunch bag. Less disappointment later, you know?

The Easter Bunny left your daughter play-doh? In an egg? That is like the people who pass out pencils at Halloween! Leave a note for the Easter Bunny next year...
