The weather was great. Me being sick slept most of the day and then got up in time to get to my mom's house and make dinner for her and some family that came over. Well actually, Hubby and I just had to put it all in the microwave because I bought it all cooked already, since I knew I was sick.<br /><br />I really like your mother's attitude and her idea of it being the first day for a barbeque.<br /><br />Do you remember when we were young and it was the first day that everyone started wearing white shoes again. It was a day of celebration to start the beginning of spring clothes and playing outside all day long again. I need to change to a lighter colored purse now. LOL<br /><br />Always good memories of this time of year.<br /><br />Your mother passed on a great tradition and I hope it is okay for us all to join in it with you.<br /><br />God bless.<br /><br />PS....slowly starting to feel better.

Ahh, I guess I'll have to do it for you.<br /><br />Deanna: Holey moley, Deanna! Your family really did have a feast. That is a totally awsome tradition. The Wonder Husband loves barbecue sauce and I love the raspberry sauce. Yes, traditions are very important. <br /><br />Reya: That is odd that there is no celebration after Passover. Maybe you'll have to invent a new tradition. I love the fancy hats and chocolates idea though.

You SHOULD have a feast, dress up, wear fancy hats, eat chocolate and barbecue and get crazy. Seems so right to me.<br /><br />There's no feast at the end of Passover which I think is so wrong. We eat the bread of affliction for seven days, then ... just stop without celebrating?

I absolutely love a good grilling, especially when any type of bbq sauce is plentiful.<br />We had our traditional Too Much Food Feast at my parents - Mom makes turkey w/ gravy & stuffing, ham, mashed potatos, peas, corn, beets, deviled eggs, and carrots. But we somehow always have more dessert than the actual meal. This Easter it was coconut cake, pound cake w/ my raspberry sauce, pumpkin pie, chocolate pie, coconut pie, and strawberries (which was fantastic w/ the chocolate pie). Yes, we all stuff ourselves as if we've never eaten in our lives. Then we sit around outside and tell stories and laugh together. Well, everyone but my dad and my niece, who must have their own traditional nap. It was much fun. <br />This is a lovely tribute to your mother. We must always remember to carry on family traditions.

The host started a fire with oil and coals,and then put the seasoned meats on the grill: steak, liver, shishlik (marinated meat on skewers),hot dogs.<br /><br />In the meantime, a table was set in a corner of the garden; on it a great variety of salads and beverages. When we started to eat, some of us complained of ..itching. It appeared that in one of the small bushes of the garden , there was a forgotten barrel with some stuff that attracted Flies. So we had to Fly inside to go on with our meal. What a shame, as the weather was so pleasant outside!DUTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979375799258978432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378105946451084472.post-41020621754840703792010-04-04T06:57:24.156-07:002010-04-04T06:57:24.156-07:00A bar b que seems totally appropriate to me, espec...A bar b que seems totally appropriate to me, especially one like yours, full of warm feelings and happy thoughts.<br /><br />Hoppy Easter!Nessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07779269921583131094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3378105946451084472.post-88126614138882275932010-04-04T06:16:48.256-07:002010-04-04T06:16:48.256-07:00Wow, did you ever just paint the perfect mental pi...Wow, did you ever just paint the perfect mental picture of a cookout!
