Easter Oddities - At least for me.


Happy Easter everyone.

 

My day has been a bit odd.

 

Originally was planning on having a ham for Easter. Had dug through the recipes and found my mother's recipe for her sweet gravy for ham. Dad had gone out on Thursday to get the ham. When he came home it was with a turkey breast. Guess what I made today?

 

I went and dug out all my needed seasonings and spices for the stuffing to go with the turkey only to find i had no Thyme. Finding an open store was an adventure but as I finally pulled up at home my father called to tell me he had found the Thyme. Evidently he had moved it from its normal spot on the spice rack and put away in another cabinet. Oh well.

 

I've got a turkey in the oven, stuffing made, and deviled eggs chilled. (My deviled eggs are made with bacon. So good, even if I do say so myself.) I have cranberry sauce in the fridge and am debating making up my mother's dill weed dip for snacking later.

 

So while not everything goes as you might have hoped, you do eventually find things to focus on and move on.

 

Enjoy everyone.

Things always work out. Often not as planned, but they work out.

Everything sounds lovely.  I put bacon in my deviled eggs, too.  Very yummy!

We used to do ham or a brunch at a fancy hotel at Easter.  I remember being fascinated by the ice sculpture - the only place I ever saw them.  Nice to hear the day worked out for you.

Sounds like a wonderful day in spite of.  Really didn't do Easter which is highly unusual, but returned from trip, grandson at his own devices, so a quiet evening.  Not so bad tho. :)

I keep all of my spices/herbs grouped by jar height and then alphabetized. Makes them easier to find.
