Easter in the Midwest is slightly less exciting than...well, everything. Everything closes except the grocery stores and video rental shops. And McDonalds. Hell, the churches are probably closed.

Gave Mom a garden tool tote as an Easter basket, with Jelly Bellys and a couple of variety packs of Trident. My basket is a useful plastic bucket, with Nestle Crunch eggs and those little plastic eggs containing, well, cash. It's...um...symbolic of rebirth, or something. I mean, it's green, right? Newborn Spring green! Yeah!

But the best part was the grass, which she made by shredding leftover Hannukah paper into strips.

Here in St. Louis, even the grocery stores close. But then, we had blue laws where *no* stores were open on *any* Sunday until, I dunno, 1980? Something like that. It didn't keep anyone home or in church on "The Lord's Day" as intended -- it just sent everyone in St. Louis into Illinois to shop.
