Rather than reply separately to all of your individual wishes, let me just wish each and everyone of you a happy Easter.  

"Old English Eōstre continues into modern English as Easter and derives from Proto-Germanic *austrōn meaning 'dawn', itself a descendant of the Proto-Indo-European root *aus-, meaning 'to shine' (modern English east also derives from this root).

Writing in the 8th century, the Anglo-Saxon monk Bede describes Ēostre as the name of an Old English goddess: "Eosturmonath has a name which is now translated "Paschal month", and which was once called after a goddess of theirs named Eostre, in whose honour feasts were celebrated in that month. Now they designate that Paschal season by her name, calling the joys of the new rite by the time-honoured name of the old observance."

A lovely idea. Morgan and I already had brunch, though. 

Baked ham, quiche Lorraine, cinnamon rolls, and cheesy potatoes, with Mojito mocktails.

I came across this today and thought you might like to have it home made Taco seasoning

Good morning, all

Shaping up to be a beautiful day here in the northwest of Ireland. Likely I'll spend very little time in the house itself.

Hope everyone else has a wonderful Monday.

Mum and I had lunch with the neighbors. We sat outside at the table on their patio. We had baked ham, both potato and macaroni salads, cole slaw, steamed broccoli and biscuits. For dessert we had brownies with vanilla ice cream and fresh strawberries.

Cool. You can control the level of salt.  I think I would also blend my own chili powder.

We are expecting severe weather shortly, the storm line is about 60 miles to the west. We are currently under both high wind warnings until late afternoon and a tornado watch until noon.

Enjoy your garden Marty.
