Easter Menu

With the Easter Triduum upon us, the boys and I will be observing these holy days with an atmosphere of quiet {well, as quiet as possible with three boys under the age of five} anticipation. 


We will busy our hands with various tasks, some of which include scrubbing sinks, polishing appliances, mopping floors, organizing clothes, and dusting furniture throughout our little home {which is very much in need of some tender loving care!}. However, most of our time will be spent, as usual, in the kitchen where we will be preparing food fit for a joyous celebration!

In addition to preparing some delicious meals, the boys and I will also be making our most recent favorite granola recipe, Cinnamon Pecan Granola, to pack in pretty mason jars and give, along with a small pot of lavender hyacinths, to each of our guests. :)

Blessed Easter Triduum!

  2. Oh your menu sounds divine Laura!! Sounds like a perfect way to spend some solemn, but productive time before the day of celebration! I plan to spend extra time in prayer and reflection tomorrow on, in my opinion, the most emotional day of the 3. I think of the ultimate price He paid for us and tears instantly well. How blessed are we?

    Then Sunday will be a time for rejoicing!! The Son will shine - and we're actually supposed to get some sunshine that day. ;) Hope you have a sun-filled and very blessed Easter weekend my Dear. Blessings to you All. xoxo
