table for 2

kevin and i spent our first major holiday alone together. our easter meal was more than a dinner…it was more like a feast. it was so much fun to decorate the table and garnish the ham, like kevin’s mom taught me. we realized that are lacking in some serving ware but we’ll get those things when we have a bigger house to entertain! one day, we’ll host Easter and it will be so much fun! our feast was a honey-baked ham covered in a mustard-brown sugar-thyme glaze and pineapple/cherry garnish. sides included sour cream-garlic mashed potatoes, cooked carrots, sauteed green beans, flaky biscuits and pineapple upside-down cake for dessert. way too much food for two people – we’ll be eating left0vers forever.
