Hi Gang

I'm happy to say that, while being Jewish, I still get to celebrate all the great Christian holidays! We've got some mixed marriages in my family, so I get to have fun on Easter Sunday with the rest of you :guitarist

Believe me: Passover is NOWHERE near as fun as Easter is :p

Happy Easter Cher .... have fun :-6

Are you BBQing?


Hi Honey :-6

It's still chilly here in New England -- we're still doin' our cooking indoors!

We are having an Easter brunch at hubby's sister's house -- about an hour away from us. It's kind of nice for a change; we usually do big dinners so this is great.

It'll be scrambled eggs, hash browns, waffles, quiche, bagels, muffins and my Cream Cheese Squares (which were a big hit at my dinner party last weekend).

"Course they'll be some good chocolate going on as well :guitarist

Did I hear someone mention chocolate!!?? :p



Have a great time with your family Cher, sounds like it will be a lot of fun!! :-6

I gotta say

Food and family are two of my very favorite things :guitarist

Did I put "food' first?? :p

Oh, that does sound like a nice time. What are cream cheese squares? I'm trying to find something to bring to an Easter brunch on Sunday and can't find diddly.

Same here nothing beats good food and a happy family. Of course if the food is 'really' good then sharing is out of the question, especially if it's chocolate, no matter how much I may love you!

Happy Easter Cher !

Easter is nowhere near as fun as Easter is.:wah: We're so far away from the original intent either the churches or the retailers need to change a name. It'll still be just as fun.

Ah Yes, Christmas, it used to be, that I would seem to gain weight between Christmas & New Years Eve. Now that I'm older, it seems that I put on weight between New Years Eve & Christmas! :wah::p:D
