I love Easter - the focus of our pastor's Easter sermon was "Resurrection Wonder" - basically, reviving the lost wonder of our faith. I felt bad, because after church, I rushed Doug out the door before we really had a chance to chat with anyone so I could attend to preparing Easter dinner.
As nervous as I was about preparing my first holiday dinner all by myself - it was a success!
Doug pronounced it, "definitely the sweetest holiday meal I've ever had!" Welcome to the Bannister family, bud. We like it sweet.
Menu:
-Ham (with orange glaze)
-Green bean casserole
-Sweet Potato Mounds
-3-layer Jello
-Sweet Rolls (sadly, not homemade... maybe next year!)
and dessert - Strawberry Vanilla Trifle. Yum.

Don't let the brief glimpse of domesticity fool you - notice I'm not posting pictures of what the apartment looked like after our guests left!
sounds like a delicious dinner!
