Anticipating Easter Dinner: A Menu


I was paging through some vintage cookbooks this afternoon looking for ice cream topping ideas - we're having an Ice Cream Social after Saturday night's Revival Meeting at church. While looking through the 1960 edition of Betty Crocker's Party Book, I came across this Easter menu and it had my mouth watering and my mind anticipating Easter dinner.

Traditional Ham Dinner

Baked Ham with Orange Glaze and Bunny Garnish
Twice-baked Potatoes
Spinach with Rosemary
Hot Rolls
Strawberry-Rhubarb Mold
Easter Daffodil Cake

    Mmmm, this sounds yummy!
    I love older cookbooks and recipes.
    I am seriously caught in the
    1950's:)

    Not sure what I think of bunny garnish and the desserts seem to missing the all important chocolate! We are just anticipating seeing everyone. A.T.
