This is the Easter cake I made and brought to Mark and Wendy’s Easter dinner in 2002, to Jeannette & Yvan’s Easter party in 2003, and to my brother’s Easter dinner this past Sunday. How very Martha Stewart of me, huh? The recipe is below -

Lamb-Shaped Butter, Elmhurst, IL
For Easter dinner Mrs. Weber molded butter into the shape of a lamb but nobody had the heart to cut into it and all of our food went unbuttered (not necessarily a bad thing!).

Easter at Central Park. It was a beautiful day. I got sunburned. Ow. It doesn’t hurt as much as Jeannette’s head must, though. She was beamed in the forehead with a 100 mph frisbee. The result was a typical New Yorker confrontation peppered with plenty of curse words on this holy Sabbath. Yesterday, Yvan & Jeannette hosted an Easter Eggstravaganza complete with an Easter ham and an Easter egg hunt in a playground. Lots of fun. Here are a bunch of photos that Jessica took this weekend (free ophoto registration required).

Easter Weekend
March 31st, 2002 · Comments Off
What a long, fun holiday weekend. I did so many things.. I’m not ready for it to end and to go back to work tomorrow.
Yesterday I started the day with a White Mochaccino and a giant peanut butter cookie from The Coffee Pot and walked to the upper west side. I did some shopping and then saw a film at the Lincoln Center Theater. It was a Mexican film called Y Tu Mama Tambien (And Your Mother Too). It’s about 2 young Mexican boys who take a road trip with an older woman. If you like to watch people have sex you should go see this movie. Actually, though, it did have a good story line and was really funny. Man, who am I kidding? I just like to watch people have sex. (Mom, I’m joking!)
I spent the rest of the afternoon in Central Park reading The Hobbit, eating a hotdog and people watching. It was a gorgeous spring day and all the freaks were there. That night I went out. 5 guys + Rachelle = Interesting.
For Easter I made dinner with friends. It was delicious. They made the most tender pork, asparagus, and rosemary potatoes. And for dessert I made an Easter cake. Now I’m going to lug my big, bloated belly into bed and go to sleep.
Happy Easter!
