EASTER!!! My first grown up holiday


Easter is almost here! Hooray! Life is great!

This is my first real holiday with a fiancee, so I really wanted to establish some new traditions. Sidebar: I'm totally in love with the idea of really being a grown up and getting to start my own traditions. I want Easter to be the "friends" holiday; I want to have a ton of our friends over to the house to celebrate. However, this plan seems to be creeping downhill. Oh well. NEXT YEAR! Additionally, I want to Christmas to be the Mike holiday. His Christmases are filled with hunting and smoked meat. The first tradition from a Davis Easter: Easter turducken! As seen above, the Easter Turducken is a mini Cadbury egg inside a Peep inside a hollow bunny. John and Mike have the tools for this and I am SO EXCITED to eat my 1st Easter turducken! Other uses for hollow bunnies include drinking containers for White Russians and Kahlua.
So here is my delicious Easter Menu:
Main dish:
Peanut Butter Ham, a la Paula Deen.
Side Dishes:
Deviled Eggs, John style and Mike style.
Macaroni and Cheese
Risotto
Rolls
Desserts:
Blueberry Cheesecake
Easter Turducken. Hahahah that has the word "turd" in it. AHAHAHAHhahahahaha.
I will post pics of my Easter adventures!

I'm back!!!

Hi Kids!
Here I am! Hahahah 6 months later and all ready to blog!
So in the most navel gazing of navel gazings, I'm freaking out over my upcoming (in like 14 months) wedding other grown up stuff. In the 2 weeks I've been engaged I've had the following dreams:
1) I'm looking at pictures of wedding cakes and bridesmaids' dresses with other women. Some of them are really women I know in real life and some of them are just in my dream. The ones in my dream are wedding planners, I think. I'm telling them all that this isn't what I want and I'm getting frustrated because they won't listen to me.
2) John and I are drawing up a legal document where if he dies before we have children I will save his sperm and artificially inseminate myself. Later on I see John typing to someone on AIM and he's saying that he wouldn't want to be a father even if he's dead.
3) I'm 12 weeks pregnant and it's a total surprise. I took a pregnancy test that somehow tells me I'm 12 weeks pregnant and it's a girl. The girl is somehow Indian. Like the baby inside of me is Eastern Indian even though it's John's and mine biological child. In the dream I'm really concerned because I just got done with my period and can't understand how I'm pregnant. The biggest concern in this dream is how John will deal with this.

So, I'm sure there will be WAAAY more to come. I'm don't think my dreams are very symbolic (all of these are pretty literal). So, tune in for more dreams that slightly distort my reality!
