Spring Celebration

Andrew's school had their Spring Celebration at the end of April.  Everyone was assigned a letter of the alphabet to bring something for the Alphabet Buffet.  We got "E" which doesn't sound that hard, but when you think about it there aren't too many kid friendly foods that start with E.  We crossed off the Eel, Eggplant, Edname, Elephant, and decided to go with Eggs.  We did Jelly Bean Eggs for the kids and an Egg Strata with Smoked Salmon for the adults.  They were a hit with their respective target audiences.  Andrew and Emily are always assistant chefs in the kitchen, and here you can see Emily helping with the egg dish. 

Blue Shirt Andrew obviously knew his mom was taking a photo of him.  The kids are getting ready to sing a few songs.

Handsome Andrew dressed up for the Celebration.

Enjoying the Alphabet buffet is always a highlight.  Some favorites for the kids were I (ice cream cone cupcakes) and J (jello jigglers).  My personal favorites were D  and S (freshly made dolmathes and spring Rolls.  I hadn't realised most of the restaurant dolmathes are actually canned.  The homemade ones were heavenly.
