Easter preparations

So today is housecleaning and meal planning for tomorrow. I've gotten a start on the cleaning and mostly have decided what to make for dinner tomorrow but just can't decide on a dessert. I guess in the overall scheme of things it's a pretty minor problem. Maybe I'll just make some brownies with fudge frosting and offer some vanilla ice cream. I also have frozen fruit, blackberry, raspberry and blueberry combination, that I have made a sauce out of with just a touch of water and a bit of sugar. Simmer on the stove until things get somewhat mushy, cool and use as a ice cream topper. Yum yummy! Either one would be a good dessert or maybe a combination of all of it.....?

And talking about ice cream reminds me to say that if you can get Schwan's ice cream, do it. It's the best. No doubt about it.

It is wonderfully sunny and warm out today. That nasty snow should be melting like crazy. I am so tired of snowbanks and mud. We don't have much to complain about though. There are parts of the state that are flooding and will spend Easter sandbagging and watching their sump pump.

Oh, and if you are wondering what we are eating tomorrow?? Well, it's pretty traditional around our house. Ham, raisin sauce, hash browns with cream of chicken soup and sour cream on top and all topped with melty cheese, asparagus, broccoli and cauliflower salad, olives, dill pickles. And if I really get my act together I am planning on homemade overnight buns.

I hope everyone has a good Easter and that you get to spend it with family and friends.
