I can’t say that everyone had a fantastic Easter dinner, but we certainly did! It was great having Mac and Marnie, Sophia, Chris and Madison, Margaret and Robin. Family and friends always make for a great day. And Robin talked to her close friend, Nancy Bonney Chrissman in Florida and a nursing friend , Geisla, in Germany. Who can ask for more? The photo to the left is of our table center piece. I did not get the beautiful flowers Margaret brought, though.

Here are the eggs we did for Easter. Using white vinegar and food dye. Just as colorful as the store bought dyes. Even more fun is the making of gefilte fish. Look at these photos. All of this was homemade. My hat is off to the Chef! Enjoy!

Yup! That’s Robin making the gefilte fish … from scratch. You can purchase them already prepared, but these are so much better.

 And yes, the Bearnaise is from scratch. Serve the gefilte fish with a glass of Manischewitz and you’ve got a good party going! Cheers!
