Easter Sunday

Hope everyone had a wonderful and blessed Easter.

We were up around 7:30 this morning to finish doing things for Easter lunch. Mother came over shortly after we were up, and with Hubbie's help, put together a dish of scalloped potatoes. Hubbie peeled and then sliced the potatoes in the food processor, and Mother seasoned them for the oven.

Later, I prepared side dishes...deviled eggs, sliced tomatoes, asparagus...and did other preps. Then we relaxed in the living room and visited until time to eat. The ham and scalloped potatoes, carrot salad, and all the rest were delicious.

After lunch, we set up a 500-piece jigsaw puzzle, which occupied us all afternoon. Sis took time out around 3 p.m. to go to Mother's for a nap. She returned a couple of hours later, refreshed and ready for a sandwich supper of ham, sliced tomatoes, and sliced onions on toast, and a choice of chips, cottage cheese, and carrot salad. We followed that with helpings of angel food cake and strawberries with whipped topping for dessert.

We finished the puzzle after that, and about 8 p.m., Sis and Mother went to Mother's house. Hubbie watched women's basketball on TV, and I played on my laptop until time for bed.

It was a perfectly beautiful day that started a little cool, but warmed up by later in the afternoon. It wasn't as busy or exciting a day as other family members had, but it was quiet and relaxing, and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
