Easter

Last Easter we were in the hospital with Luke, I can't believe it has almost been a year. This Easter was pretty fun with him. He loved dying the eggs. We dyed a dozen eggs and not one wasn't cracked by the time we were done. He was so happy Easter morning when he would find one of his hidden eggs. It was a long hunt because all he wanted to do was play with the egg he had just found. The eggs were demolished by the time he was done. He banged them together, crawled with them, etc. The eggs were of more interest than the basket of toys!

When he was done we ate Eggs Ala Golden Rod. It's one of my family traditions. My grandparents made it at the cabin for us when we were little. It works great for Easter morning because it uses hard boiled eggs!

Eggs Ala Golden Rod
2 T Butter
2 T Flour
1 1/4 C Milk
3 Hard Boiled Eggs
Salt and Pepper

Melt butter and flour over low heat to create roux. Heat milk in microwave for one minute then whisk into the roux. Simmer over low heat until thickened to gravy consistency. Dice hard boiled eggs and add to sauce. Generously salt and pepper to taste. Serve over toast! About 2 servings. Happy Easter!
