Easter Scenes

Easter is truly my favorite day of the entire year.  I love everything about it.  I love church on Easter Sunday, the reason for the Celebration, the gift, grace and hope it allows. I love the new growth of Spring, seeing everyone dressed in their best, the fresh new colors, the new buds, flowers and growth around.  It is truly my favorite time.

Of course, it’s not a celebration without our family gathering around the table and eating great food.  I was a little down preparing for this Easter’s lunch and thinking of sitting with my smaller family because it would be so different from last year.  That being said, it was a wonderful day.

In our 8 Week Challenge I encouraged everyone to have one cheat meal a week.  I say make it just what you want, something delicious and special.  Today was that day!

Bloody Marys, Deviled Eggs and Ina Garten’s Orange Baked Ham. Nothing Better!

Arugala Salad, Summer Succatash and Derby Pie from this wonderful cookbook, Southern My Way. A favorite gift from a dear friend!

I forgot to mention the mac and cheese and Vidalia Onion casserole . . .all this followed by a delicious nap.

Hoping you had a wonderful day with family and friends!
