The dishes are in the dishwasher, we've had our flourless Chocolate Chili cake with whipped cream, DD is taking a nap, DS and dh are watching golf and I am going to update my Easter Notebook.
I need a note to remind me not to buy BROWN eggs for hard boiled eggs. DD and her Life Coach were going to dye the eggs. Was funny when I opened the carton and they were brown. Always next year.
The Ham from Honey Baked Hams was excellent. Will do that again. I didn't heat it but made everyone heat theirs when they dished it up. DS and dh heated theirs, DD and I did not. Now I need some yellow peas to make Swedish Pea Soup. I have some ham saved for sandwiches in the refrig, some slices frozen, some chunks saved for scalloped potatoes and of course the bone for the soup.
I did add a Jezebel Sauce to the menu (I'm calling it Sister Jezebel). I would do it again. It was made with cranberries and pineapple preserves. I divided it into half and mixed horseradish into one half. DS and I loved it. DD and dh liked the plain which I am calling Sister Mary Sauce. I think I'll add canned pineapple next year to the mix.
I didn't ever get the deviled eggs finished. Just hard boiled (those darn brown eggs). I made a deviled egg dip instead. I mixed mayo, mustard, horseradish and sweet pickle relish to make a the dip. People just spooned it on egg halves. Probably will do this again. If hard boiled eggs do not get eaten I can make egg salad or creamed eggs out of them instead of having deviled egg leftovers to toss.
