Après Fête: Easter Egg Hunt

This year my friend Leah went all out with a kid's fantasy Easter: an egg hunt, egg on spoon relays and pin the tail on the bunny. It was a pleasure to create a menu that lived up to all of the fun. Bunny and chick shaped finger sandwiches accompanied bunny mac & cheese and bunny snacks (aka carrot sticks). The kids provided the dessert by sharing treats from their Easter baskets and decorating sugar cookies. If you've ever wondered who likes Peeps, think no further: kids (they freak out for them!). There were treats for the adults as well: starting with spicy Bloody Mary's and rhubarb fizzes. A Greek Easter Luncheon was a great buffet for a day of grazing. Grilled leg of lamb filled pitas with plenty of dips, sauces, veggies & a big Greek salad. The whole day got me excited for warmer weather and days filled with good food, good drinks and great friends. Lots of parties to come...
