Egg hunt at 24...





HAPPY EASTER!

In my family Easter is always spent at my aunt's house. This year, she thought that it would be fun to have the older kids (19-24) do the egg hunt as well.

Like any worthwhile occasion celebrated by my family (Christmas, Thanksgiving, a Saturday) Easter involves a lot of good food. Easter isn't as formal as the big two....Christmas and Thanksgiving, but we still have turkey. Food really does bring people together... if it weren't for the food at our family gatherings, we'd all be in different parts of the house doing different things.

This video was shot at the "kids table" during Easter dinner. My cousin tried and succeeded in distracting me with his obscene chewing (the vid is cut off on the right for some reason). Good times.

On my plate: homemade bun, lasagna, caesar salad, mashed potato well with gravy inside, cauliflower, squash, spanakopita

Moist Easter turkey

Smoked salmon is always a favourite

Spanakopita is another family fave...I could eat that whole pan

I'm normally not a huge fan of cauliflower, but I'd eat just about anything smothered in cheese sauce and brown sugar

Really good lasagna

I know what you're thinking...wow that's quite a random hodge podge of dishes. And you'd be right, but hey...we give the people what they want.

Happy Easter everyone! I hope you had as much fun with family as I did. I think 30 is a good cut off age for egg hunting. Yea egg hunting at 30 would just be ridiculous... 24 is fine.
