Status: offline 		I've given up on my man getting the sweet potato recipe from his Aunt so am going to try allrecipe's Gourmet Sweet Potato Classic which seems to be very close to what we had at his Aunt's last Easter. I think I'm going to skip the 1/2 C sugar in the potatoes, though.

I'm going to do poohbear's sister's yummy sounding CROCKPOT HONEY MUSTARD HAM.

I may do asparagus for a green.

The Fannie Farmer Pineapple Upside Down Cake is traditional in my family but I have a ton of running around between my family and his so not sure I can fit that in.



What are y'all having for Easter/Passover/Spring?

My SIL's b'day is the 13th so she is doomed to get a cake.

Because of this, the Holy Saturday dinner was usually the bigger thing.

The Lenten fast was over. people could indulge in whatever they'd given up for Lent.

The family being so big there were plenty of good cooks in the mix. A typical Holy Saturday dinner included: soup (Usually minestrone), salad, Lasagna, some form of meatloaf (usually beef, pork, and veal all run through the meat grinder) with onions, bacon, and tomatoes baked right on the meatloaf, any number of desserts (Grandma always made chocolate something for me) and lots of corresponding wines.

Easter Dinner usually consisted of Holy Saturday left-overs.

Matzo covered with caramel, chocolate and nuts instead of cookies. Sponge cake with strawberry sauce or chocolate flourless torte.

Status: offline 		This was a long winter for my family, so we're planning a low-key Easter. My cousin was a bit apologetic, till I reminded her that my bar for this Easter is pretty low, having spent the last one in the hospital. I'm proposing this catchy tune, adapted a bit, as our anthem this year.

We'll have lamb--our family's Easter tradition--and I'm not sure what else.

Status: offline 		Easter has always been a solemn holiday for me. One of my most vivid memories of an Easter day is of me as a teenager walking down the street on a gray and rainy day to an almost empty house with no real plans for the day. Ever since then, the day feels hollow.

Perhaps I will make a bunny cake for joy. :)

Big hugs!

Easter is a favorite day of mine, and I get edgy if I don't have plans by Palm Sunday.
