So, step into your time machines folks 'cause we're going back to April 8th 2012 to say Happy Easter Everyone!
This is the first time in 33 years that I have cooked Easter Dinner and it included three firsts for me!
1.) Baked Ham - truly, the only other ham I've ever cooked was soaked in Guinness (um so good).
2.) Quiche - first time I've ever made one, ok ok ok, I used store bought crust. To be fair, I didn't know I was making them until Easter morning...vegetarians...but I digress, I LOVE QUICHE and they are so freaking easy to make!!!
3.) Raisin Sauce - this is served with the Ham and it is soooooooooooooo good! It's something Mimi - my Dad's mother - used to make whenever she made ham, well special occasion ham 'cause let's be honest folks, a trip to Mimi and Granddad's always included baked ham! It takes a while because you have to keep it on the stove and stir it so it doesn't burn for quite some time while it thickens, but damn is it tasty!!! (Inquire within for the recipe!)
So, below you will find the menu and some snapshots of the food! I do believe all who ate were very happy with these tasty dishes! :)
