I love this time of year. Tournament, Masters, KY Derby last prep races, spring is here. Easter kicks it off.

For me it's all about the lamb and ham and spring/fresh flavors. So there's cast iron skillet roasted racks of lamb. And a ham with cherry/orange/grand marnier glaze. Put this with a tomato/mint/goat cheese salad and some red potatoes with a shallot/herb butter.

Happy Easter, Happy Spring.

sounds awesome.

usually id cook something (likely a ham, as the family wont go for lamb :( )
but were going to my uncles this year, which is *really* unusual. its a last-minute thing, but my grandmother just got out of the hospital, has pneumonia, doc said she may not get better....so my uncle wanted the family to be together.

all im making is a vegetable casserole :-/
i dont know if theyre going to roast something at his place, or grill something.

I'm going to grill some hotdogs for lunch for the kids after the egg hunt. For dinner I'm cooking prime rib roast with garlic blue cheese sauce on the side.
