Jesus in my Chocolate Milk

I'm not crazy. I'm serious. (Ok, well maybe I'm a little crazy.)

Ok, so, last night, my 3-year-old wanted chocolate milk with dinner. I conceded, since he'd already eaten well and, well, I wanted some chocolate milk too. So I poured the milk, doled out the Nesquik, and stirred it up.

When drinking tea or chocolate milk, I have a habit of swirling my cup in between swigs, so as to avoid leaving the good stuff settled on the bottom. It was after such a swirl stopped, once I had drunk about half the cup, that I saw it: a tiny 3/4 view face, perfectly rendered. I thought, "cool" and grabbed the camera.

Unfortunately, my camera wouldn't let me get a clear shot.

But then, when I was reviewing the shots on my camera, I saw something, someone else:

Jesus in my cup.

"Jesus?" you ask, skeptically. Of course it's Jesus. It's always Jesus or Mary who show up in the most unsuspecting of places, right? On a cheese sandwich. In an oil slick... why not in a cup of chocolate milk?

Then I took another look: I saw a lion in there too.

I got goosebumps.

Interestingly enough, the tiny face, Jesus, and the lion all share portions of their faces. Whoa. Trinity much.

I know, you all think I'm nuts, right?

Check it out for yourself and tell me what you think.

I'm attaching the original photo; all I've done is bumped up the contrast for clarity. Hopefully I'll be able to point out the stuff as I see it later.

Your local Symbol Seeker,

Julie

PS - for another thread, but before I forget. I watched The Number 23 the other night and the bonus features in the wee hours this morning. I figured out my numbers... My "Life Path" number is 7. I think that's freaky. Especially since I generally don't buy into numerology, astrology, feng shui, ect.

Good Heavens! That's not JC. That's Michelangelo. I'd recognize him anywhere. It means there's a strong artistic element in your nature.

If you want the JC picture, you have to use margaritas, not chocolate. And it usually doesn't work right away. The other night, he didn't appear until the tenth try.

I wish Jesus would stop hanging out in people's other foods. Look, he totally owns bread and wine... why get in everything else? I want to register a complaint with his father.

How'd he get from a spackle smear in my bathroom to your milk? (Hrmm. Maybe that's one answer we DON't need to know!)

I see the guy with the beard (I will not guess as to his identity as I have not met either Michaelangelo or Jesus) but I dont see the Lion.

Emily saw a penny... Abraham Lincoln... I told her she's a bad Catholic, don't worry. clearly, i need to make my kids feel more like they're going to hell. They're too good.

I saw Abraham Lincoln, or Queen Elizabeth - it's difficult to tell....

(as for Jesus, I saw him with Elvis in the dust on my dresser)
