Monday montage: On an Easter Day ...


(These are tulips from around the side of my house that  recently bloomed this past week.)

Happy Monday everyone! I hope you had a good weekend. We were all invited to Brett's cousin and her hubby's place for a wonderful Easter Day dinner. We had a delicious ham, mashed potatoes, corn and other cooked veggies, gravy, hot buttered buns ... Mmmm, yummy GOOD traditional PA Dutch family Easter holiday dinner! And, we have plenty of leftovers for the next couple of days ...
The family ...
I was asked if I could bring lemon cupcakes for dessert. Could I? - lol!! So, on Saturday afternoon, I baked a dozen or so and decorated them with candy flowers and Jelly Belly beans ... needless to say, I ate far too much and am now back on my strict diet for at least the next week. 😞

And, I also made two Cherry Chip cakes (equal to one regular sized cake) ...

As for Trixie's Easter feast? Some leftover grilled chicken from Saturday night's air fryer dinner. She gobbled it right up! 

And now, here's a few new "Trixie pics" - you can see by these photos that she is such a sweet little kitty ... 😸

😻 HIGH FIVE!!! 😻

And last, but not least two old pics of me and my brother taken on Easter morning just before heading to church service when we were just kids ...

Have a great Monday all!!

    You are not alone in eating too much yesterday. Funny, Easter has never been an 'eating' holiday for me, but yesterday it was. Guess it's because I can't resist Italian food. Your cupcakes and cakes look so inviting. So pretty.
