Easter Calls for Celebration; Whether or Not You Are a Christian Believer.

Easter feast today with my friends Jack and Donna Chrisman; their Daughter Ashley Lloyd; and Donna's sister Barbara Caudill.


Easter Eggs for my host family. Excepting the White/Oreo egg they are hollow eggs with the good stuff inside.


Who would want an egg with white "chocolate" and Oreo bits? I knew that one of the family members would!  "Buttons" are small disks of milk chocolate, about the size of a nickel.  They are often the first  chocolate for small children 'cause they melt in the mouth and are not a chocking hazard.



Quality Street are wrapped chocolates usually sold in boxes, but  in this case they are inside the egg.

Maltesers are the U.K. version of Whoppers (only better!).  In this case they have been made into buttons so that they won't rattle around inside the egg.

The Feast


Scalloped potatoes; roasted lamb  (with mint sauce, not that dreadful mint jelly which I hate with a passion!), ham, carrots, asparagus and green bean casserole.

We all ate enough.  No one ate too much  (oh the blessings of ageing!)


What would Easter be without a bonnet!
