We had a wonderful Easter! Started off with mass, then a trip to Bed, Bath, & Beyond (they seemed to be the only store open) to buy a 20%offsale+20%offcoupon roasting pan from our registry, then breakfast tacos! The rest of the day we worked hard to make our house sparkly clean and clutter-free (garage sale next weekend!). The best part of Easter was sharing it with our "Austin Family" for a pot luck dinner. Very similar to our Christmas dinner 2 years ago, we represented many religions - Catholics, Protestants, Jewish, Orthodox & Hindi! Some how it ended up that the Hindu guy knew more about Catholicism & Jewish that the Catholics & the Jew :) We dined on a variety of dishes - Indian samosas, fresh spring salads, corned beef & cabbage (from garden grown cabbage, care of Eric & Katherine), roast chicken (thanks new awesome roasting pan!) and of course the Easter ham!!! We topped it all off with a "chocolate stout bread pudding" (chocolate+bread+ice cream on top=perfection) and the Mexicans made the American classic "apple pie." Delicious food & awesome fellowship!
Dessert looks awesome!! There is an pre-set auto setting on your camera for photographing food and it makes a big difference! It's probably hidden in the auto drop down menu along with a bunch of other pre-set settings.
