Saturday, April 11th, Getting ready for Resurrection Sunday

My dad is here this weekend and has been relaxing and watching the Master's tournament while I have been cooking and shopping, etc. Easter around here has always been a big deal. I usually have company and I make a big meal with some traditional dishes, at least to us. One of those things are these wonderful bird's nest cookies. My kids hate coconut, so I make half with coconut and half with sugar coating. They are just too yummy.
It was comforting to me that today while I was making them, Catie was also making them in South Carolina.
Candice doesn't really like hard boiled eggs, but Chuck and I love egg salad sandwiches, which we only have this one time of the year. So I only boiled 12 eggs and Chuck and I dyed them.
Aren't they pretty? Egg salad....mmmmm
