Ham for Weeks
We average 10 for Easter dinner. This year it was an intimate 6. We bought the same weight ham as we always do. I will be finding culinary uses for ham well into July.
Dinner was wonderful, the company even better. There was the traditional bursting into song and sporadic re-enactments of bits from "Jesus Christ Superstar". (I'm all about the Yvonne Elliman. The Spouse is all about air guitar).
There are still dishes to do but it's okay. The sun is shining, it's the first day of Easter break which means I got to sleep in (love that) and I know that for the foreseeable future the protein needs of my family can be met through smoked pork products.

Once again, it was an amazing Feast. Thank you for a memorable and delicious evening. The BAH was the stuff dreams are made of. Can't wait for Pentecost...
Alleluia, He is Risen!

Killer ham last night Nayb - I'd be glad to take some of the extra smoked pork product off your hands if you'd like to anonymously slip some into my fridge when I'm not looking. For those of you out there in blogopia who are drooling over the menu, it was a truly magnificent feast and the photo does not do the BAH its justice. Lorraine's and my rendition of "I Don't Know How to Love Him" was nothing short of Grammy-winning.
Sounds like you guys had a great time. I don't know what I like more... holidays or holiday leftovers.
The asparagus and the Zucchini quiche sound interesting, and tasty.
I used to do a pretty mean "Heaven On Their Minds" in front of the bathroom mirror with a hairbrush.
If I do say so, it sounds like a lovely time was had.
so cool, what's for Thankgiving?
Glad to hear your Easter turned out well:)
That sounds fabulous. You should post the recipes. Being Southern, I'm particularly interested in those molasses biscuits.
