Sat 15 Apr

Ah, preparation for a big meal. Up at my usual rising time, but right to work getting the ham into the oven. Wrestled the angel food out of the pan in one piece, though not as neatly as I would have liked. Probably should have baked about 5 min more so it would have come out more easily. Regardless, I was able to finish slicing it, filling it with lemon curd and raspberries, and making a lemon glaze. Hopefully the taste will be good. I've assigned Bob to clear the table which he has mostly accomplished, then I can put on a fresh tablecloth after I finish breakfast. Then I need to assemble the cheesy potatoes and bean casserole and ready the asparagus. After that, it's pretty much waiting for the right time to do subsequent steps. Easter dinner went quite well. Plenty of food but not so much as to make one uncomfortable. Cake was good, but not quite up to my expectations. Food: 8:00 am Hot cross bun, 100 g blackberries, coffee 10:00 am Butterscotch brownie 11:30 am Ham, cheesy potatoes, bean casserole, asparagus, angel food w/lemon curd & raspberries, white wine 1:10 pm 1 Dove peanut butter egg Exercise: 2:45-4:05 pm Walk w/Bob
