Scenes From Easter

Hello, hello! I hope that, if you celebrated it, you had a Happy Easter! For my husband and I, it was filled with lots of food and family!

Since I got the new camera a few months ago, I can’t help snapping away at everything. The little decorations that appear on the Easter table at home were no exception.

I always love my mom’s Easter table setup and place settings. We typically do Easter brunch instead of dinner.

She made a tasty new grape punch this year. In the past we’ve had mimosas or smoothies.

We have some really neat Ukrainian style eggs that have been in the family for years.

They’ve been hollowed out and are very delicate. I believe they were decorated by my aunt and cousin, who are both very talented at it.

I also learned that the family cat, Emma, loves to pose.

She wouldn’t stop rolling around and showing off in the sun patch.

Easter is not complete without the kielbasa.

When we moved to Virginia years ago, we eagerly embraced the southern tradition of ham biscuits. The biscuits are brushed with stone ground mustard; they’re my favorite.

After Easter brunch it’s time for Easter baskets.

We finished off with a sneak peak at the baby bird that hatched in the wreath on my parents’ front door.

  1. Just wanted to let you know I took the peanut butter and chocolate cake from a few months ago to Clark’s family Easter gathering and everyone agreed it would be incorporated into the family tradition. Thank you for sharing it.

  2. That’s excellent to hear. I’m glad they like it! 🙂
