I think except for the broth from lambs liver and Lamb heads I could enjoy the rest. Thanks, Marie.

I would really have enjoyed this royal meal. Happy Easter to you too Maria.
Happy Easter, Hester! By the way, do you celebrate Easter in the South Africa? If yes, in what way?
The religious folks attend a church sermon early in the morning on Good Friday and again on Sunday. The sermons usually include performances reenacting the crucifixion, but on a small scale (I know that in some countries the whole village will participate in such a performance in public). Children are given Easter eggs and have treasure hunts to find the eggs, but overall the festivities are low key and the weekend is spent with family and friends. The weekend is the height of the end of summer holidays and many people travel great distances to their holiday destinations. Do you celebrate Easter in a special way, Maria?
Oh, well…As I belong to the Orthodox tradition & Easter is indeed a great festive for us. We usually celebrate at home with home made Easter cake. It’s a tradition of my family. My mother makes it. We exchange greetings, etc. We don’t often attend the church, but always watch Easter broadcasting from our main Cathedral, as it’s very solemn. How interesting…you have seasons upside down 🙂 🙂 🙂 Amazing!
Yes, today was the perfect day for the beach and we spent hours swimming in the waves and floating in the tidal pool. Late June, beginning of July is also holiday season here, although temperatures are a little lower and our winter is not that bad.
Incredible! Oh, well…you live in a little Paradise! Do you often meet elephants? Or they don’t spend so much time on the beach 🙂 🙂 🙂
Haha, no, we have no big game here. The only elephants I meet will be in nature reserves in other parts of the country.
🙂
Happy Easter!
Thanks, dear Luisa! Buona Pasqua! Hristos Voskrese!

You don’t have a vegan alternative do you??? No. Just joking. 😂
Yes, I do, of course! I have read a menu served during the Lent. I will translate some dishes for you. 🙂 100 % pure vegan!
Che gran mangiata!
Un abbraccio Maria e spero che la tua Pasqua sia stata serena.
Grazie, cara Fulvialuna!
A most interesting menu, Maria. Were the dishes coated in breadcrumbs fried?
Thanks, dear Robbie! Yes, they were. Anyhow…delicious they are! 🙂
Dear Maria,
A slightly belated Happy Easter. I look forward to your next posts – all so interesting!
Best wishes
Moira
Same to you, dear Moira! Oh, I’m Orthodox, so we have Easter on the 8th of April, a week after you! 🙂 Great! I’m glad you find them useful!
people ate
heartily
at your
palace 🙂
Oh, well… when they gathered in a big crowd too little was left for everybody.
i wonder if
the vegetarians

altogether?
wishing you a happy
day 🙂
