Irish Hills

Easter this year was colorful, bright, and spicy. Yep, spicy. As in the food that we ate was quite savory and flavorful — Shredded lamb with garlic, rosemary, and tzatziki sauce, deviled eggs, steamed asparagus with lemon and butter, homemade pita bread, lentil salad, hummus, dill cheese, and crackers. Oh, and I almost forgot the strawberry shortcakes with vanilla ice cream. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures of that bountiful spread because I was so hungry and ready to eat it. Forgive me.

Good thing our feast days only occur every few months.

Except, today happens to be another feast day. It’s my Dad’s birthday and naturally we are going to eat well on this day — Though, considering that there are about 10 birthdays we celebrate in our family every year, and counting in all the other “feast days” which we take advantage of to eat well, I’m not sure how healthy this is for our waistlines overall! Grilled steaks, salad, smashed potatoes, and for dessert, a homemade maple cheesecake are on the menu for today… I promise I’ll get pictures.

Coram Deo!
