"Oh man these are good."
In the spirit of first-teasing-then-joining, I am also going to post Chup's photos of Lucy and Ric's Easter Egg Hunt which took place Saturday morning on their farm. If you aren't a member of my family I won't feel bad if you don't scroll down. I realize that my exceptional-and-totally-remarkable nieces and nephews are only Other People's Children to you. And we all know how Other People's Children smell and look funny.
Anyway, let's start from the beginning (a very good place to start). Lucy and Ric gave everyone instructions:
- 201 eggs
- Stay on the farm
- There is one golden egg, with a cash prize
- 2 other eggs contained greenbacks of varying values.
- Be courteous to others
- Don't take the real eggs out of the chicken coop--they don't count
- If you're this little let Grandma B help you
While the bitty ones are off to find eggs, the older ones wait until they get the OKGO! whistle. They only care about finding the Golden Egg of Cash anyway. . . and football.
(And soon, the other kind of chicks.)
(Wink, wink.)
But the itty bitty ones just chillax with Umi or daddy.
Most of the chick-a-dees find baskets of eggs.
Some are luckier than others.
But Lolita, she's the luckiest of all . . . 20 dollars luckier.
Leaving nothing left to do, but dream of next year. . .
. . . not me though, I've got asparagus pee to enjoy for the next twenty-four hours.I love Easter.

Numero uno, I am honored. I love the Easter photos, and I will be posting some soon, you should drop by. And I know exactly what you mean, re: the asparagus pee, one of the many joys from that tasty veggie!
I am now suffering from the gastric pains that you were referring to in your previous post.
Casee,
Relax, take my hand. Anyone who loves asparagus pee is--not only a friend--but a dear, dear friend of mine. Welcome to the fold.
I was thinking of A.P. earlier when I downed my fifth helping of aparagus.
kindred pee-ers, you and I.
How did I grow up with five brothers and never know about asparagus pee?!
The only kind of pee I'm aware of is Super Golden Crisp Pee (do they even sell that cereal anymore?).
I love that I often learn something new from your blog.
Totally was just telling the AP story tonight and nobody believed me (oh, they will when they pee). Unfortunately, the asparagus was overcooked, a bit smooshy (but I'll eat it anyway). Fortunately, I think of Miss Courtney when I have AP. I also think of her when I have NP (normal), but it's heightened with AP.
Yes, Tricia, there is NOTHING like Super Golden Sugar Crisp cereal pee. Now you make me want some... which I CAN have because the British guy who can make me thin says I can Eat What I Want. Tee hee.
My mom always overcooks the asparagus; it's an Easter certainty.
Oh, ok! I was totally going to make some crude comment about asparagus pee, but thought how tacky that would be. But then, I got the the end of your little diatribe and was happy to see that you are every bit as tacky as I am.
Let's hear it for funny smelling pee!
I too have been urinating with the aroma of asparagus for the past 12 hours. It is nasty, but man I love asparagus! (oh, and Easter)
Love the asparagus! Love the photos.. the kids are darling and the photog exceptional and the writer very talented.. Happy Easter!!!
So what percent of people get AP? Because I love asparagus, and I had never heard of such thing until I was in graduate school. Clearly I do not have the AP gene.
the egg hunt looks awesome, look at how big your family is. it looks so fun.
i want a farm.
My husband and I use the interest in asparagus pee as a gauge for finding 'couple' friends. If you think it is fascinating as we do, then we are BFF's. We are always amazed at how quickly it passes thru the system
margaret is so cute.
asparagus -- check, check, and check. and lots of it, thank you! green pee -- check, check, and check. and lots of it, thank you! gorgeous pictures, sir chup! happy Easter to you both!
Hi guys, this is Sabastian. I was wondering when you are having your baby. What are you going to name him? My suggestions are: McKay, Austin, Matt, Nate, Michael and Todd. Please respond whenever you get the chance. I was also wondering what you like better, Easter or Saint Patricks Day? I sure do love Saint Patricks Day. How did your sister make the golden egg? Did a golden chicken lay it? HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA TODD HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA. I just crack myself up sometimes.
Alex, come over sometime and sleep on our old bedding because YES I AM KEEPING IT!
Yes, we ate asparagus, too (but many days after Easter since we were in the hospital on Easter day). I love asparagus! I had no idea it was an Easter tradition. It was just on sale. We also had ham (had to break my W.O.W. diet, but it was EASTER) and funeral potatoes. Yes, I LOVE funeral potatoes. I'm not ashamed.
I thank you for your reference to 'asparagus pee'. I recently found myself feeling more than a little socially inept when I referenced the affliction during a recent dinner with friends. They looked at me with shock and disgust. I felt my soul contract a little with the shame and started to blame my own kidney function as the culprit. I now feel validated.
