Easter/Passover Menu/Plans?

[Cerise]

What's on the menu? What are you cooking & what are your plans? Any special favorite recipes to share?

I'll be visiting the Outer Banks of North Carolina for Easter weekend and have reservations with the family at one of our favorite places to eat there The Jolly Roger. No cooking for me this year!

lol, the jolly roger?

so, ye will be a celebratin' east- arrrr...

or passov-arrr...



if we stay home, i'm sure dw will be making her traditional slovakian easter dinner of ham, beets n horseradish, asparagrass, stringbeans, farmer's cheese, and rye bread.

the only change might be roasted spiced fingerling potatoes (that i made the other night that were fantastic) instead of baked or mashed.

if we go to my parents' house, i'd love to bring a leg of lamb and smoked trout to go along with whatever my mom and siblings make. i can guarantee there'll be shrimp cocktail, a pickled veggie platter, and devilled eggs. it's not a holiday in my family without those three things, it seems. very scandinavian.

We are going to a friend's house for brunch. I am going to make mini cheddar quiche bites. Should be a fun time.

but the drive over here is going to be a little more difficult.

Bolas you got lots of snow right now ? Hopefully it will clear by next week . Brass monkeys though innit .

And back on topic, probably roast lamb involved for a family dinner, and a Nigella Easter Nest cake .

I'm on the left GQ, the garden is south facing so its protected from the wind, the front had drift up to the window. Friends got a big yale bucket up and cleared the drive by 14.00 yesterday.All the local supermarkets were out of milk and bread so we skated to Chester.Clic on pic to enlarge.
Ps they told me in Broadgreen that the get the biggest influx of Heart Attack victims from snow clearing.
