A couple of weeks ago Tony's fiance officially became Dr Meghan Connor! I always have such admiration for those who can persevere through that much school and do well. Those are the kinds of people that we all want in charge of our medical care right?




And this is my new face:

Dying for eggs

We dyed eggs today.


So much blonde hair.
And then we had to eat lunch to replenish the energy spent on self restraint where chucking eggs into the dye was concerned.

Artist’s chocolate Jesus angers Catholics

NYC gallery inundated with angry calls ahead of display during Holy Week

NEW YORK - The Easter season unveiling of an anatomically correct chocolate sculpture of Jesus Christ, dubbed “My Sweet Lord” by its creator, has infuriated Catholics preparing to observe some of their holiest days of the year.

The 6-foot sculpture by Cosimo Cavallaro was to debut Monday evening, four days before Christians mark the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on Good Friday. The final day of the exhibit at the Lab Gallery inside Manhattan’s Roger Smith Hotel was planned for Easter Sunday.

“This is one of the worst assaults on Christian sensibilities ever,” said Bill Donohue, head of the Catholic League, a watchdog group. “It’s not just the ugliness of the portrayal, but the timing — to choose Holy Week is astounding.”


The gallery’s creative director, Matt Semler, said the Lab and the hotel were overrun with angry telephone calls and e-mails. The gallery was considering its options, he said.

“We’re obviously surprised by the overwhelming response and offense people have taken,” said Semler, adding that the Holy Week timing was a coincidence.

The artwork was created from more than 200 pounds of milk chocolate, and it features Christ with his arms outstretched. The Cavallaro creation does not include a loincloth.

A publicist for the gallery said the artist was not available for comment.


So my question is: Is this offensive for the right reasons or the wrong reasons? Christ did not have a loin cloth during the crucifixion and that is offensive. But is censoring the right thing to do? Will we teach our children a more pg rated version of the story? Then again is making a sculpture of Jesus out of chocolate more irreverent than one of stone? Or is any physical image of Christ a graven image?
