Happy Easter!

A beautiful Spring weekend! We are enjoying glorious weather! Hope you are too! I just finished preparing some special items for friends and family and thought I would take a break from the kitchen while I have a cake in the oven--two to be exact! Hot milk cake! The delicious sweet pound cake style  yummy delcious family recipe from my Grandma! My neighbors LOVE it so I made it for them. I also made some stuffed mushrooms to go to my brother's house tomorrow for Easter dinner.  I made a batch of meatballs to have with our spinach/mozzarella raviolis tonight.....what else is left...Mexican 7 layer dip :)  but I'll make that in the morning! The house is smelling great!

Caitlin is enjoying the park near our home with her girlfriend Grace, and Billy is bike riding with his friend Amber. So wonderful to be out and free and enjoying the sunshine! The kids are off from school this week and we'll be enjoying each day together.

Yesterday it was Easter egg coloring time! The kids colored eggs with Grandma and Caitlin's friend Stephanie. Tonight they will color some more with Daddy when he gets home. We always have our annual Easter Egg Coloring party but our little friends who live behind us couldn't make it this year. I told CAitlin we can still party! Grandma is coming!  So is Stephanie! and there will be cake, kettle corn, brownies, jelly beans, Easter cookies and strawberries ! and they'll be egg dye and stickers and sparkles...SOUNDS LIKE A PARTY TO ME!   We had fun!


Wishing you a lovely and blessed Easter!
