happy easter!




ohmy. i literally spent 4 hours in the kitchen, preparing for easter dinner. i got nothing done, schoolwise, anyway. but now i know more things to make for next time.


scalloped potato gratin. this was a tyler florence original but i decided to add bechamel sauce.

herbed parmesan yorkshire popovers - a mini flavorful version of yorkshire pudding

mississippi mud cake. a paula deen original, except i didn't add nuts and didn't flood it with chocolate icing, and i stuck it in the warm oven for a few minutes so that the marshmallows get all crispy-ish on the top and gooey in the inside. the first pic is before it went into the oven the second time.
main course was horseradish-crusted prime rib with homemade gravy. that was from tyler florence too. hehe.

and that is all. i hope everyone had a beautiful easter. :)
