| Costco ham for Easter dinner |
Does this not look good enough to eat? We recently joined Costco, in solidarity with all three daughters and with their urging. So we thought we would try a Kirkland ham for Easter. Marissa planned the menu and made some fancy scalloped potatoes flavored with an herbed boursin and other fattening things. The parmesan-crusted potatoes browned nicely alongside the glazed ham. Also delectable was a white layer cake with fresh strawberries and cream cheese frosting which Marissa assembled Easter morning. The spring diet re-starts in April. Meanwhile, life is good.
We used the included spice packet that added brown-sugary sweetness and cinnamony/clovy spice notes to the spiral ham. Just before eating I knocked over my empty wine glass and it shattered on the kale. The kale was purchased primarily for garnish, but it served to deflect the shattered glass--and was thrown in the trash soon after this photo was taken. I did not grieve that I was not able to enjoy the kale on Easter Monday. The ham was spared and we had plenty for shared leftovers.
