How to prepare for Easter brunch

Easter bruch can be fun to prepare as well as easy to enjoy.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• List of guests
• Menu (as well as diet restrictions for your guests)
• Grocery List
• Table settings
• Colored Easter eggs(hard-boiled please or could get messy!)

1. First, PREPARE YOUR MENU. Make sure you know if there are any diet restrictions for any of your guest. This way no one will go hungry. A nice Easter brunch should included salad, entree, bread/rolls, side dishes and dessert.

2. Second, CREATE YOUR SHOPPING LIST. With the economy the way that it is today, maybe you could team up with a family member & split the dishes to be prepared as well as the shopping list. This way all of the work & expense is not one persons shoulders.

3. Third, ADORN YOUR TABLE. What a great time to make a special moment for friends & family. Getting people together can be so difficult these days. Make it a special day with your table as well. Decorate it with care & thoughtfulness. (Yes, this means you don't use paper plates & plastic utensils!) Make your table fun as well as beautiful. make sure you have enough places settings for your guests, chairs, tables etc.

Tips & Warnings

• Try to prepare as much as you can before hand so the day people are coming over you aren't bogged down with details and aren't able to enjoy.
• Hide your easter eggs for the Easter Egg Hunt the night before so that when the kids arrive, everything is ready for them.

on 5/1/2009 If you have a dog, hide the Easter eggs high. If you have a cat -- good luck. 5*
