Of Coffee and Easter

41 Comments

If you were having coffee with me………
If you were having coffee with me I would say Happy Easter holidays how is/was your weekend going hope it is/was great.

Here have piping hot cuppa and I would offer you a plate of steaming hot cross buns, fresh from being nuked in the microwave; I hope you do not mind having microwaved food?
I ask this because I know people who prefer to eat cold food when they have a perfectly good microwave cause they are deathly afraid of radiation but funny enough they are constantly on their mobile phone with a Bluetooth headset and WiFi always on isn’t that ironic.

Don’t mind me, as I brush away a few ants crawling on the buns, (currently have va little ant problem) They are rather hardcore ants, considering they just walked out of a plate from the microwave (and that’s why cockroaches, scorpions and ants will be the only things left after a nuclear holocaust) Anyhoo as my mum always said ants are mostly harmless and they are tonic for the stomach, but I think she just said that to get us to not be fussy over a few ants in your food.

If you were having coffee with me I would ask you if you went Easter Egg hunting. Curious things Easter eggs;
-Where do they come from? I mean what sort of creatures lay Easter eggs?  I would not mind having a pet that laid chocolate eggs, just saying.
-Does the  Easter Bunny lay them or is it some weird rainbow chickens that have clearly been nuked by some cosmic microwaves?
-And then the Easter bunny just does the collecting and hiding for the hunt?…

Having spent a long time at a Catholic boarding I have a confession to make. You know during the Eucharistic Feast of Holy Communion in celebration of the Last Supper the priest holds up a chalice of wine and says this is my blood, and then a wafer and says this is the body of Christ. I  used to have this crazy thought that what if he held up a bowl of noodles and said these are his intestines and some mashed potatoes and said these are his brains….  It’s a good thing these where innocent thoughts of youth otherwise I would have been struck by lightning during mass, yes?

If you were having coffee with me being a Christian I would say Amazing Grace, I owed a debt I could not pay and he paid a debt he did not owe Amen.
Compliments of the Easter season

P.S. My internet being slow so I could not upload images I found a picture of likely candidates to laying Easter eggs

  4. Thanks for the hot cup of coffee, and the chat. Funny, I was just thinking about the wine and wafer part of church services, and what they are supposed to symbolize. I always thought it sounded like cannibalism. Uhh…no… … Anyway, hope your Easter was fun! 🙂

  6. Another amusing post! Regarding the noodles in the chalice during Mass, did you know that there’s a Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster? I wonder if they really do have a chalice full of noodles?

    Also, have you ever eaten ants? I heard that it’s actually possible to buy chocolate covered ants, although I can’t imagine many people sell them. I think I’d try them, if given the chance.

    1. hi Josh 🙂 OMG was just talking to someone about Pastafarianism, they thought I was making a bad pun on pasta and Rastafarianism…. (actually I was haha! but that’s neither here nor there) I managed to wing it…. The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster ….. if anything it’s a conversation piece that right there… Flying Spaghetti Monster and Church in one sentence…… it would be quite appropriate for them to have a bowl of noodles during service…..

      I haven’t eaten ants ants but I have had fried insects that closely resemble ants… actually they are anthill termites locally known as majuru they make quite the delectable crunchy snack esp served with hot chilli and washed down with an ice cold beer lol

      Chocolate coated ants well I can definitely say that’s an ice breaker I think they would make a great party snack too….

      thanks for dropping by always a pleasure ~B

  9. Loool, the bunny that lays Easter eggs, which are really colorful. You know the whole concept of Easter is a bit controversial, cause of the origins which are believed to have been heathen but ‘married’ into Christianity .

    BUT if we were having coffee, I’d most prolly give you an Easter egg 😊

  13. Laughing out loud. Not sure about the ants though. Having my java now and needing to hurry for an interview but will enjoy reading more from you. It’s not Easter today though and the Easter Bunny, well that’s a topic for another time. Have a great day!
