One time when the kids were little I made a bunny shaped meatloaf on Easter.
That was fun.
Nobody thought I’d really do that.

Thank you for this grand thread, JT! A Blessed Easter to all!

Wishing you and all the thread cooks the same.... HAPPY EASTER!
Received from my FRiend ‘nopardons’, an Easter lamb recipe:
*****************************************
“Buy a nice, small, leg of baby lamb.
Score the top and sides.
Place in roasting pan.
Pour Soy Sauce ( either regular or low sodium ) over the leg, covering it, cover with garlic powder or place slices of garlic into slots you’ve cut into the top of the leg and cook at 475 degrees for about 15-20 minutes.
Baste leg with orange juice and lower the temp to around 400-420.
Keep pouring orange juice over the leg every 15 min. or so and remove most of the fat that is in the bottom of the roasting pan, but NOT all of the orange juice.
Cook for about 1/2 hour per lb.
While cooking, make a brown gravy.
Add a couple of teaspoons of Grand Marnier liqueur and the orange juice and fat at the bottom of the pan about 5 min. before serving and place in a gravy boat so that everyone can put as much or as little as they want on the lamb.
Serve with small pan friend Irish potatoes, asparagus ( or fresh haricot vert/green beans ), mint jelly and/or spiced apple rings.
Never EVER serve rabbit to a small child; they will ALWAYS cry! And it probably shouldn’t be served to most adults either; but they won’t cry...just refuse to eat it! :^)
My family had/has set dinners for special holidays: Thanksgiving is always turkey, Christmas is goose, Easter is lamb! It’s just what we do and have always done for many generations. I LOVE FAMILY TRADITIONS; THEY MAKE ONE FEEL “SAFE” AND SPECIAL! :-)”
******************************************
To which last sentence JT can only add ‘AMEN!’
Today was OK, rough around the edges but OK.
Happy Easter
