Most years, I go with my mom to get the basket blessed even though I'm not Catholic (she is.) It's a nice tradition. She always brings the same S&P shakers, so those are the holiest S&P shakers in the world.

I am always appalled that the priest at her chuch asks for "donations" of candy & food. He walks up & down the aisles holding his smock out like a pouch collecting from everyone. I'm always tempted to toss in a piece of greasy kielbasa to teach him a lesson. This year, we went to a different church.

I think a grease-stained robe would have taught him a lesson.

I'm sorry, I'm not understanding why that is appalling. Isn't the candy and food for people who don't have enough candy or food? Or is it for the priest to snack on?

It's for the priest to snack on. I thought all priests did it until we went to another church. It was then I realized that Father Chris made up his own little tradition to scam candy.

So. There. Appalling. To me, anyway.

Oh, that's kind of weird. It seems really nice if people just brought him food for the holiday, but to solicit for it is strange. Why doesn't someone just bring the poor guy an easter basket with a bunch of candy and snacks?
I sure would, after the first year I saw him trolling down the pews begging for cream eggs....

I have lots of weird Easter things.

However, I have much weirder Passover things. This year I got to play the Angel of Death and got to murder five first-born Egyptian sons.
