I nearly plotzed the first time I heard this story, and had to look it up to see if it was actually a thing....I was sure the person telling me was making it up, but no this really is an old polish folk tale that sometimes infiltrates the Church.
In other news, the girls and I did our own easter eggs last night. Head over to the blog to see what diabolical things I did with mine!
Now, fellas, we all know that Jesus had a cholesterol problem. When Jesus came back, the disciples all had to get the eggs, paint them and hide them. That way, if he did come across them, he surely wouldn't know what they were if they were painted...
"Hey it's easter let's paint eggs!"
"But painted eggs have nothing to do with Jesus."
"Alright, fine then we'll hide them"
