Happy Easter! I took today off from running… How about you?
My oldest son got avocados and a dark chocolate Dove bunny in his basket! I love it!
We had Prosecco mimosas with our brunch. It’s become our new Christmas and Easter morning tradition.
I worked on my deviled egg chicks some more today. I think the little guy in the front row on the right looks like a chick, but the rest of them look like little old men with old-fashioned huge curly mustaches!
After years of serving Honey Baked hams for Easter dinner, one of my sons asked why we always have ham when none of us really like it. Answering, “Because that’s what Grandma always served” wasn’t a very good answer, so the following year a new tradition was born. We now have filet Mignon, and my son prepares it. I call it Joseph’s perfect FM. Maybe it’s not a traditional Easter dinner; but it’s now our tradition, and it was delicious!
It’s time to eat a funny looking bunny cake with some vanilla ice cream! Tomorrow morning it’s back to healthy eating for this girl!
- Questions:
- Did you run this morning?
- Do you ever serve something you don’t like, just for the sake of tradition?
- What’s your upcoming week look like?
That fillet looks good! How did the bunny cake taste? I’m sure it was yummy. I did do just 4 miler today with a friend at a trail that is near our house. We will actually be flying to Colorado this week with my 15 month old on a plane, wish me luck :/
Good for you for getting your run in today! The bunny cake was great, but tomorrow I’ve got to get back to healthier eating. 🙂
I hope Z does well on your flight. Safe travels!
Happy Easter! Love that tradition… and I still say your chicks are just perfect!
I also took today off of running, but that’s the norm for me the day after a long run.
That filet mignon looks so good! My Dad always makes that for Christmas Day dinner.
My upcoming week begins my taper for the Blue Ridge Half. Bring on the taper crazies!
Good luck on your Blue Ridge Half!!! Enjoy taper week! 🙂
I think your chicks are adorable! Although once you pointed out the old men with mustaches, I started to see that, too.
No run in the morning, but after a morning/afternoon of cleaning/cooking/puppy, I dragged myself (and Indy) out for an 8 mile run on the W&OD. It felt good.
I’m sure Indy was happy to get out and run with you! 🙂
He was, but my goodness is he out of shape! I feel like a horrible dog-mom. Normally he kicks my butt on 10 mile runs and then still wants to play fetch after, but this time we did 8 and he was just trotting by my side by the end (Indy ALWAYS runs in front of me). Poor guy.
Awww, poor Indy! He needs the “Pooch to 5K” app. 🙂
