It was a lovely, Florida style Easter weekend with a lot of time spent outside in the sunshine. We had our annual Good Friday with friends, attending Stations of the Cross first, followed by visits to a few outdoor bars. There was a lot of Easter prep on Saturday getting ready for dinner. Even Easter mass was held on an outdoor patio on a beautiful morning and it was a nice early start to the day. My mother in law came for dinner and because of all the prep Saturday, it came together nicely and I was happy with my traditional menu including a few twists from new recipes. The Strawberry Shortcake Trifle I made for dessert was delicious. After dinner we took a drive to the beach and had a cocktail at Sharky’s with a beautiful view of the Gulf.
I hope you had a sunshiny Easter too!
It sounds like a lovely Easter weekend. I'm glad you had time with family and friends. The weather there sounds SO much nicer than here. Even today it's snow/raining outside. Blah. We're ready for spring.

ReplyDeleteTrifle is super simple and I just did 2 layers so it wasn’t so big since I only had 3 for dinner.
