Easter is upon us. Let' focus on the reason for it. No! I do not mean to focus on the fact that it is a shameless ripoff from a multitude of Pagan cults. that it is a not even disguised Spring Reproductive and rebirth holiday, by the same name and for the same purpose that the Northern Hemisphere has always welcomed the end of winter and the Spring rebirth. Even the word "Easter" is a mispronunciation of a Pagan fertility goddess Austre, who was in charge of reproductive festivals, penis worship, ergo bunnies and chickens and colored eggs.? Let's not even mention that it only makes sense in the northern Hemisphere, since Spring comes at different times elsewhere. And let's not overlook the message of rebirth and forgiveness, which has value. BUT, we cannot avoid the Christian reason for the season, which I present below, as a bee in your Easter bonnet.

Hear Hear! Spring has sprung and it is a shameless pagan ritual. Yup - ready to put on my druidess cloak and dance around the May pole.
Glad you are having a great trip. Had been plenty rainy here til today and tonight will be in the 40's. Things still pretty wet - haven't planned out the garden yet.
