Easter.

This weekend has been one of renewal. The kids and I spent Saturday cooking goodies, like muffins and homemade bread so when John got home from work the whole house smelled yummy and homey.

It's been fun.

Tomorrow, we'll start the day with Pecan Waffles with Pecan and Banana Syrup ...

Then, we'll move onto a yummy late lunch including:

Tangerine Glazed ham with Baby Carrots

Scalloped Potatos Au gratin ... homemade, not from a box!!

Traditional Southern Deviled Eggs

Farrah's Fruit Salad  - found this at Fiddledeedee's Saturday Stirrings! Saved the day!

Then, a long drive somewhere to relax and enjoy the company of each other.

Can't wait!

May each of you have a blessed Easter.

1After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.

2There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. 3His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. 4The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

5The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. 6He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. 7Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you."

8So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples.

9Suddenly Jesus met them. "Greetings," he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him.

Matthew 28:1-9
