Other Easter Options

My favorite new tradition has been decorating easter eggs the Saturday afternoon before Easter, at JOQ’s tavern on Broadway. For the past two years I’ve been going, they’ve boiled a ton of eggs, put out cups of dye, pens, and other fun decorating stuff, and let us go at it. They had prize baskets with bonnets and other easter goodies for winners of the decorating contest. I won for “Gayest Eggs”, Liza Minnelli and David Gest. It’s a lot of fun, and I think they usually have jello shots. My favorite bartender Peaches is over at the Eagle now, but I think Lloyd is planning to keep the tradition going. I’ll definitely be there! Here’s a bad picture of my winning eggs. I think I was pretty toasted by the time I took the picture.

    That is some seriously impressive egg decorating!

    Have you ever gone and made ‘waving gloves’ before the Grand Floral Parade over on Stark St.?

    I’ve never heard of ‘waving gloves’ but it sounds interesting. Do tell.

    Ah, Peaches…

    He’s one of the good ones.

    Why, I remember a time…
