Happy Easter, Part I

Hello all! Oh my, last post was on April 12th.  Some traveling and Holy Week proved to be quite busy, more than I expected.  We were still cooking and enjoying several delicious recipes - including several new ones - and enjoying company with family and friends.  Since the 12th, I know someone who got engaged, I know someone else who is having twins and found out they are having a boy AND a girl,  and someone who decided to go back to school to pursue his/her dream.  It's been a busy world outside of the kitchen but we managed to have an scrumptious Easter dinner yesterday and Saturday, that's where we're going to start for now, brace yourselves:


SATURDAY:
We enjoyed some time with family and feasted like kings and queens, dyed eggs and relaxed! Get this, it was snowing outside, sticking to the ground and all.  Last year, we enjoyed our egg dying outside, a walk in the sun and grilled the lamb outdoors...

The Menu: Crudite platter, Artichoke dip, Stuffed Eggs, Barefoot Contessa [bc] Roasted Vegetable Torte and bc Crab Cakes with a remoulade sauce. For dessert we had mini-cakes with cream cheese frosting. 

Tomorrow I'll be sure to post on our Easter Sunday meals, breakfast thru dinner! 
Dinner tonight? Leftovers.
