why do we wait for things to come so much then want them to stay around for longer,actually no why dnt they jst stay lol.such nice days i suppose keep us having hpe or maybe jst keep us in tact enough for the nxt one so we can keep going wit h day to day stuff until the nxt special day comes along.
ooh a bit deep there love!!
bt it was easter yesterday and all in all it was a nice day.get that special eraser and rub out all the hit moment that will nt come up to much when u want to remebr the day and all was good.
lets start from the beginning a very good place to start lol!!i woke at bout 5am and went downstairs to see the table laid out in easter festiveness,mum does this every year,as i have said before easter is veyr special to hr religious and other reason too!!she gets all excited and goes to the shop like a little shcool girl to buy all her goodies.in the centre of the table was the tree slash staue slash something else looking weird bt cute.its the thing she made lst yr and nw i think it will become the eater centerpeice forever.it was made out of old twig which she painted white and stuck into a big chunk of wood then decorates with chicken nd chocolate egss on the end of the branches,its looks so cool i have to say.this yr the lyndt bunnies that hung lst yr were replaced by egg shapped praline chocs covered in green and gold foil and the chicken were there too and it looked lovely.then there was a aplace laid out for everyone with a gold knapkin and egg cup and plate with some mini eggs laid for everyone.at grans place there was two mini lyndt bunnies,i say miini i think they were the inbetween size lol,then sam had his usual mars bar egg and dad had a man sized lydnt bunnie lol.
and then something rather magical happened.all week we have been warned seriously bout our winds and terrbile weather warning coming.for instance the snow.we nvr get snow at chirsitmas u hpe upon hpe that it will jst show itself for jst some xmas comfort bt if there is it gets to the floor touches and and says f** u i will tunrto sludge instead so that is all we get.and then sometimes we getlucky i cnt rembr when it lst happened though!!bt on easter like something sweet and magical at 5 am it started to snow,and nt that little stuff that u dnt get excited bout coz u no it will melt to nthing when it hits the floor,bt that puffy stuff that hits things and stick.so i ran to my camera like a 5yrold child,cursed as i remebrd the battery had run out and like the girl i am i had sed oh i wnt need it for a while so nvr charged it,i grabbed it holdr and found the charger let it on there for a mnute that took it to the patio window to film the moment,by the time it was going for a while and stopped the ground was covered,yes onl a thin scope of snow bt everything was whute,the table the bushes and hedges,the shed and path were covered in snow and i saw it all yaya!!by the time they all got up it had gone of course and i dnt think they quite beleived it unitli showed them the film bt it happened and i can say hey this yr i saw snow!!
then mum came down and sorted herself out,we watched the repeated final of dancing on ice,and then she phoned gran and they moaned to eacohter bout nt getting u p for hurch,i had my suspicions when thye siad they were going to that this was wishful thinkking on there part,bt they still had a warm moment and wen mum went adn got gran for breakie we all watched the service on t.v so thye were happy with themsleves. then there was the easter reakie.and my turn to ask if they wanted to to take ovr whilst they tooked in with each part which was:cereal as usual,everyone in our family has a certinab reakie ritual,quite fun to watch reall as u could memorize every moment and play it again every day.sam has his coco pops and fills it too full with mil and take on handful before he moves to the table,today he was sat first so all was o.k lol.mum has cornflakes on the bottom filling 2/3rd of the bowl and then tops it with branflakes,allthough she loves bacon and eggs and other breakie items she has to have this breakfast and missesit quite literally misses it when she doesnt lol.then theres dad who has a shallow bowl of branflakes and suagr and then one or two pieces of toast which heleave in te toaster until the things pops up with agrivation so he can have the burn toast effect going on !!and he has either marmite or marmalad on it and sometimes onmly sometimes though had stretched to the limejame we have in the cupboard at the moment,and actually he often cuts up a banana or has starwberries on topo when we have them in,he usused to have conrflakes bt then kicked into needing mre fibre so he went to the branflakes,and in season of rubaarb he gets me to boil oit down like u do with the sugar to stew it and he has this on his cereal,im nt sure whether others would see this as weird!!bt my sister loves it too so eh cnt be all bad.
whilst this was happening i stepped up the the job of egg boiler and coisson warmer,the eggs went in and were tome to the seoncd with 4:30 mins,brother pondered for a minutre on whether to have one until i said whether mum and dad wanted soldiers with there egg and his ears pricked to the hhhhhh soldiersto dip in mode nd he said 'me me i want one too'so they had there soldiers and runny egg and gran had her coissants and of cours mum and dad dipped into these too!!round the table was a mixture of chocolate nibbling two and y the time breakfast wascleared the big bg of cream eggs were half gone with muttering so of gosh these have shurnk,which was hlaf excuse to have two maybe bt seriously i actually do think they hvae gotten smaller too.
then gran was taekn home saying she would come back for the roast we were going to have.
at home mre choc was eaten actually and waful amount was eaten it was shocking lol,but its easter who gives a crap,if u cnt o it on this day when can you eh?
then at 3pm gran came back for the chicken roast i was doing with gusto,it wasnt intended to be this late bt me and mum had issues when wes tupidly went to the co-op only to see it was shut so had to do some tesco shopping instead which took longer.and dad went to the oub to see the match hich was jst allowed because he was atually mean to go to the game bt gave his ticket away oto be home for easter so fair is fair, he came back then with a few pints in him and a merry annoying quip bout hm and so lunch was made,we always seem to go wrong somewhere in the planing of roast,we are on track btthen right at the last minute we underestimate hw many hobs and hw long veg take to cook,so we had the leek,brocol,cauliflow and cabbage pushed into two pans,then we need to do bread sauce and the gravy so hob space was limited.and one conrer one doesnt acvtually wokr so this was tricky.we had already had to make our own roasties coz we forgot to buy the cheets mcain roasties from the frozen section lol,and then we couldnt find lard,so we came up with the olive oil roasting way,which in the end were fine they said jst softer than real ones bt they scooped enough of em in lol.and then there was stuffing and a huge chicken to fit i nthe oven,bt it was o.k we al got together,me and dad should i say coz we chucked borther out the kitchen when he wouldnt help properly and jst stoofd like a goof nt rwally watching the sauce so it bubble all over every making lumps and so didnt in the end go thick ad ran all ovr the chicken nstead ofd dressing it lol,bt we got there and i got to serve up,i hve to say im working hard on my carving skills lol.this was also a bttr type of chicken very fitting since it was be nice to chicken weekend lol.and then to pudding which was something we had seen that weekedn on james martins saturday kitchen show,it was shortbread thins with a vanilla cream and rasberry with there juice.the night before mum had made me search on the web for a recipe for thin shortbreads,i jst assumed that they were the same jst watched mre in the oven and rolled thinner,which inthe end ithey were,bt it was suprsing when surfing the web hw little came up for a recipe.i guess people jst thought it coomensense to simply rolll them thinner lol!!in the end she nipped in sainsury whilst taking borthe rto play footie and bought some,of course trying a pack that night and decing thery would mre than do lol.mum said they like there attempt bt though it was a tad sweet at the back of throat bt i think that was because they put too much sugar in the cream bit coz the recipe was hard to follw as they used mascarpone as he did it on the tv bt followd the rcipe it gave on his website which used creme fresh.hmmm nt helpful james martin.
then later the passion was watched and mum enjoyed it thoroulghly,a few other rpgrams came on some easter bits and bobs slipped in there.i almost keeled ovr trying to avoid the wizard of oz on channel 5.gosh what it is the issue with this thing,i hate it,it is one o my most hated films ever i cnt stand it and go crazeeeee even if i see a peek of it lol.so fw avoided that nicely.
i cnt tell u hw much choc was eaten.o.k i could bt i would nt be bale to type without shocking some,bt my fmaily had the bst day doing an and enjoyed the sick feeling causing them nt to move for the rest of the night so wahay for them lol.poor things though the lydnt bunnnie were missing a few ears and asses by the end of the day.
then me and mum rushed upto bed trying to get read,rushing for knoghties and toilet and teeth washing so we wouldnt miss our program which we ave been looking forward to since we heard it was coming,which was THE NUMBER ONE LADIES DETECTIVE AGENCY. and i have to say gosh it was worth it i have nt enjoeyed anything like it for a while,it was truly amazing,heart wamring,adventurous,culteral and aaaah words cnt describe,i think me and mjumsie got a bit emtoinal at the edn mre to the fact i thin kbecause the wonderful man that made it died this week which as far is things go wasnt nice consdiering his rpgram was on this weekend,he is a brillaint man at what he does and is much loved in our world. we desperately want this whow to be made into a seires witthe nxt books and hpe from what the amn said at the end of the shw that it eoither has been or will be nxt yr,allthough i dnt no what it will be like wihtout the genoius man behind it.
such a nice day to be honest,thankyou jesus and god too for making a day to be rmebered,that sounds sily doesnt it,i dnt care i beleieve in all that stuff,should probably show it in better ways bt i do what i cn so that is that!!
