What Day Are You Having Your Easter Dinner?
Comments (7)Our Easter dinner will be on Sunday afternoon. We only have about half of the family. Our oldest son and his family are vacationing in FL. I have a very easy meal planned. The cooking will be done on the grill. We'll have ham slices and I think I can heat the twice-baked potatoes on the top shelf in the grill. I hope to bake some special bread tomorrow. For dessert we will have Strawberry shortcake and lemon bars. We will only have one little kid, but we will have a egg hunt, indoors. I think the weather is expected to be nice and warm. Yesterday was up in the 70's, which is amazing for MN, but it is already humid out there....See MoreAre You Having an Easter Meal Tomorrow?
Comments (26)Hi Kids, We will not be having a big Easter dinner but I can't get away from tradition all together. No company for us and no invites to go out so we will be taking advantage of the good weather to get some heavy yard work done. I will start a pork butt in the crockpot in the morning so we will have some yummy pulled pork sanwiches at the end of our day. I also made some yummy pickled eggs last saturday so by tomorrow they should be perfect! It will be a very different Easter but I can live with change. I look forward to the pork. gazania, I hope you enjoy your pickled eggs and beets as much as I am going to enjoy mine. My kids love them when they are here but my husband can not stand them. He hates hard boiled eggs and when you add beets to the mix, he runs for the hills. I love them and can't get enough! Enjoy! It sounds like all of you will have wonderful meals, start to finish. I hope you all enjoy the bounty, the company and the day. sooey...See MoreWhat are You having for your evening meal?
Comments (21)I made lasagna. I make it with ricotta, mozarella and sweet Italian turkey sausage (much less greasy). My 6 y/o DS *loves* lasagna. It's always good when I can make at least one of the family very, very happy. ;o) He eats it like it's chocolate cake! Just as I took it out of the oven, he came bouncing down the stairs licking his lips saying "I know what's for dinner! I smell lasagna!" Lasagna night is the night he will out-eat even his 15 y/o brother. Can't get enough. Tomorrow night he will ask me for leftovers. Too cute!...See MoreWhat Did You Have For Your Meal At Noon?
Comments (11)What a timely question. I had the most horrid noon meal. Actually I didn't eat it. I went to an event where I paid over 40 dollars to attend. As with most events the meal choices were uninspiring. Salmon ,chicken,veggie lasagna, that sort of thing. I decided the chicken piccata couldn't possibly be too terrible. Boy was I wrong. The whole meal was terrible. I don't know how some ate it and some actually thought it was good. Go figure. This was at a country club. First we got basic sweet french rolls. The kind with the over browned crust that once cool hardens into instant staleness. The butter balls were on the table so long they were melting. When we asked for more butter it was still frozen solid. It wasn't even real butter....just a shade above grill grease. Ick. The salad was a half of a small apple dice on about a 1/4 cup of bagged lettuce mix with a few (again straight from a bag) candied walnuts. Then the chicken...oh my. It was an over breaded "Tyson" chicken cutlet that I believe was either baked or nuked. it had the same consistency of a a breaded TV dinner. There was no piccata about this thing. No lemon flavor, no lemon garnish and certainly no capers. It had some kind of mushroom glop from a can on it. There was a table spoon of white/wild rice that crunched. The only thing edible (to me) was the few frozen green beans on the plate. I gagged down a few bites of chicken. Another lady asked for a box and so did I. They don't give out boxes for fear of being blamed for food illness. BS!! Any problem with the food is already right in their kitchen. I also observed servers holding plates near guests whose costumes (this was a costume event) were hanging right into the plates while they paused to speak to someone. Nothing like letting someones boa brush into someone's salad. Ick Double Ick. So basically I spent 40 plus dollars on frozen food that was poorly prepared and served by I thing either the kids of club members or some caddies. They were not trained wait staff. So tonight I went to a family owned diner and had a nice meal of Soup,lamb chops,baked potato, fresh asparagus and cheesecake. All for under 15 dollars with very nice professional service....See More
