They mock me, they do. I only found two thirds of them, and the rest are just laughing away at me.
The easter egg hunt is a revered tradition around here, but I (in my wisdom) taunted my father with the fact that they were so easy to find last year; couldn't he actually bother trying to hide them properly?
Well, I got what I asked for, I guess. There were sixty of the little chocolate things hidden around the house, and I found exactly 41 of them. The rest are still wherever they're hidden, and I've got no idea where they might be. I've looked behind pictures, under trinkets, in drawers, in pots and vases and boxes galore, and they're just not announcing their positions at all.
This means, I suppose, that I'll be finding them throughout the next year, unexpectedly. Nothing says 'happy easter' like stale, half-melted eggs half a year later, I suppose...
