Easter weekend was a feast of eating. Easter Sunday had a great menu. For a starter, appetizers by Barb- Veggies and dip, cheese and crackers, drinks while one daughter brought rice balls and dip. I spent Friday making the lasagna, leaving it in the fridge to cook fresh on Sunday. I made two extras for my girls to take home and cook another day. This cook made a lamb roast as well as lamb chops; ham with pineapple; sausage; chicken thighs with roast potatoes as well as mashed; broccoli; peas; brussel sprouts and fresh buns from Grande Cheese. Dessert was Easter chocolate cake, cake pops for the kids brought by my other daughter, chocolates and vanilla ice cream. Beer and Sangria for those who love a little drink with dinner. Espresso or regular coffee.
Barb made some freezer meals with the leftovers so all the hard work cooking could be appreciated another day.
Since the cook does get tired, Barb and I went to our favourite little hole in the wall Fish and Chip place- Allencourt Plaza Restaurant Friday night. No cooking or cleanup. Great way to start the weekend. Granpa loves to cook but also to have a break.
so much good food!
