It must be a Yosemite Sam Holiday. That fur bearing varmint with the big white bushy tail left all kinds of goodies just ripe for the picking again. …and they were hardly hid at all.

I did very well today hunting Easter Eggs. I have to admit the competition was almost nonexistent. The older kids are really no threat since I outweigh them by over 100 lbs and they’re just too easy to bowl over. The toddlers are so excited they’re hardly aware of what’s happening around them and picking their baskets is no challenge at all. Parents can sometimes be a problem. I have to tell them I’m an Official and the eggs have been recalled and they should help me collect and give me as many as they can find. Those that have doubts I send to the organizers booth for clarification while I vanish.

I was really surprised by the first prize egg. Needless to say I got a big bang out of it. After all it is an ACME product.

Just look at all the Easter eggs I found! These are the wild ones that haven’t been wrapped in colored foil. They’re 100% pure without any wax in the ingredients and a much better source of fiber than the store bought ones.

My wife told me to stop eating them or I’d get sick. Now for some reason see refuses to kiss me.

Happy Easter.
Hope all your eggs are not as full of it as I am.

   They look just like the smart pills my friend Bubba used to eat. After chewing a few on several occasions he got smart enough to stop eating them any more.

   Leo,
   I’ve got something for Bubba. I doubt he ate enough smart pills to resist this.

   Those wild Easter eggs look more like Milk Duds to me. Taste them again and see if I’m right.

   mimmylynn,
   Nope, they don’t taste like milk duds. There’s no sugar in these.

   LOL…now, how long did it take you to gather all those luscious “eggs”. Now, in this day and age of everything organic, you are right in vogue.

   Debbie,
   Believe it or not it only took a few minutes. There’s a deer highway that passes through my property and since the ‘eggs’ winter over really well there are piles of them all along the path.

   Maybe i should check with the health food store in town. These things are good for putting some color in your face. Green is in too.

   I bet they taste the same as some of those store bought ones. Chocolaty delicious?

   Ratty,
   Those store bought ones taste like (place S word here), they’re just cheap commercial ‘almost chocolate’. The wild ones melt in your mouth not in your hand.

   Oh Wise One. The Easter Bunny always walks over my DH’s desk and leaves momentos for Easter. It’s the only kind he likes.

   sharkbytes,

   VERY funny – you could have tricked a lot of kids with that one!! And maybe a few adults too…

   Sande,
   So you want one?

   Unless the eggs are chocolate, it’s not worth bowling over an toddlers! (I agree parents can be a problem.)

   Monica,
   Not even for fun?
   (as a parent I have to disagree)

   You wife not only refuses to kiss you, I bet she will later curse you for spoiling her basket.
   You labeled your post as nonsense!!! I am reading nonsense!!!!!!!!

   rainfield,
   Susssh! She doesn’t know.
   At least you only have to read it. My wife has to live with it.

    Those organic, earth toned ones are very trendy nowadays. Plus, they double as a decorative Easter centrepiece.
    What would be the the use of getting older and wiser, if not to outwit the little ones?

    Northern Shade,
    Earth tone is right – my name would be mud. They’re a good way of getting kicked out of the house too if I ever tried using them as a center piece.

    Outwitting the little ones is fun but it’s much more satisfying just caging them.

    Now I see why they call it “scat”, cuz’ that’s what that picture makes me want to do!

    Lisa,
    I better be more careful in the future. Don’t want my visitors to scat because of something in my feed.
