Easter Feasting


After a raucous wake-you-up-and-get-the-blood-a-flowing church service at Harvest Bible Chapel yesterday morning....I headed to my Momma’s house for dinner.

And I am not talking about your normal Sunday dinner, but an eating event beyond compare!


If at any point, you think that Susan Snippet's is an exaggerator...here is a list of what, to the best of my sieve of a memory, I can recall, with EVERYTHING, including sauces, being cooked/baked from scratch by our southern-rooted-should-have-been-a-farmer’s-wife Momma, with help from some of us others:

Baked Ham;

Turkey Breast;

Stuffing;

Mostaccioli with Red Sauce;

Meatballs;

Italian Sausage;

Baked Potatoes;

Baked Macaroni and Cheese (with the sides a little crusty so it had a chewy, crunch around the edges!);

Corn;

Cauliflower with Cheese Sauce; and

Rolls;

The table was then cleared and due to some folks having to visit other relatives, we quickly placed the desserts out for consumption.

Desserts (again each homemade) were as follows:

Yellow double-layer cake with butter cream frosting;


Chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese frosting;

Chocolate Scotcharoos;

Chocolate and Butterscotch Chip cookies;

Chocolate Éclair Cake; and

Italian Anise Easter Cookies.

Excessive?

Maybe.

But I would not want it any other way.

dieting starts again today
