It’s Easter Sunday! I am getting ready to start cook the ham and preparing the house for guests, but first I’ll list some Easter related patents for your enjoyment. I wish everybody a wonderful day filled with friends and family. Let the party begin!

U.S. Patent No. 5,238,707 – METHOD OF REDUCING STATIC-CHARGE ON EASTER GRASS

This invention claims to substantially reduce the static charge on Easter grass by coating it with a anti-static compound.

You know Easter grass, the green plastic spaghetti-like ribbons that you always lose your jelly beans in…

U.S. Patent No. 5,074,239 – EASTER EGGS DECORATING AND COLORING KIT

This invention claims an easter egg decorating kit including an arrangement of dye champers formed in linear orientation.

(Nothing says Easter like patent language!)

I think I remember having a Jello mold that resembled this egg coloring kit. Mmmm, Jello Easter eggs.

U.S. Patent No. 3,227,065 – WATERLESS EGG COOKER

This invention claims a semi-automatic appliance for hard or soft cooking [Easter] eggs without the use of water.

This invention also resembles an Easy-Bake Oven for eggs.

U.S. Patent No. 4,050,370 – SPIRAL MEAT SLICER WITH IMPROVED RECIPROCATING KNIFE STRUCTURE

This invention claims a meat slicer that can form a continuous spiral slice on a piece of meat, such as a ham.

I particularly love this invention, and I fully anticipate enjoying the resulting spiral sliced ham it produces this evening!
