Our Easter Lunch Easter is a very special occasion.
After Church we enjoy gathering our family together for lunch.
Our Easter Lunch for April 15, 2001.

Meat: Baked Ham with Pineapples and Cherries
Vegtables: Vegtable Medley and Lima Beans
Rolls
Mixed Salad
Desert: Sunday Pineapple Cake Trifle

Our table's center piece was set with two beautiful candles in a rose base, on each side of a crystal/silver candle holder.The kids gave me an eight piece plate setting with green edges for my birthday. So I used them and placed my new Italian Flower Hand painted rose bowls. We used elegant white napkins. I brought out my favorite glasses that are light blue with large stems.

NOTE: This was a perfect table for a Easter spring celebration.

I served this lunch in courses. First I served a large refreshing salad that included three types of Lettuce, (Iceburg, Red Leaf, and Butterhead), Tomatoes, green squash, grated carrot sticks, red onions, hard boiled eggs and croutons. I placed Rolls on small plates beside each plate. I also served crab meat salad, cream cheese mold and crackers.

After the bowls and food was cleared I brought out the ham sliced and topped with pineapples with cherries. And then the Vegtable Medley and Lima Beans, ( Grandma's Potatoe Salad would have been a better idea). Robert said serving the Salad first was a great idea, as the others filled up with Salad it left MORE Meat for him.

After lunch we visited for awhile, then went to the nearby park to hide Easter Eggs for the grand kids. (Jaymen who is now 3, and Jasmine who is almost 16 months old)

For desert after the Park Trip we ate Sunday Pineapple Cake

Mix 1 box Pineapple Cake, 1/3 cup oil, 3 eggs, 6 oz Pineapple Juice and 8 oz crushed Pineapples. Mix and bake in 3 pans. Cool and take out of pans
