Talk to the Goat

i still do an egg hunt for my kids, it's one of their favorite parts of easter. i never thought to count all of the eggs i put out, this year i had to be alot more careful so the dog wouldn't get into them, but i always seem to find the odd one around christmas.


Gone...? But... I still want chocolate...!
By the way, Jason's behavior is hardly surprising: while I was reading this, several "ooh I want to eat this" escaped me, simply from looking at the pictures.


Glad you two had a Good Easter! We broke out a new grill (pictures to be posted when I get home) and proceeded to burn several kinds of meat. No cake, though, darn it!


Love your Easter wake up call. Also your tasty traditions. Sounds like you're the perfect Easter bunnie.


save some for me!

i'll be over soon and Jason will have to share...hahahah



I'm happy that your Easter was fun and good for ya.

Question though. Does Jason now or ever smoked a bunch of POT. His appetite is incredible.


Where does he put it all??

The meal sounds quite delish, but not exactly heavy on the healthy... That boy's metabolism must be supa-fast.

I want your Easter.


He is definitely related to mr. kenju! He never met anything he didn't want to eat - except fish.


The eggs in the bread was wierd..but warm bread from the oven sounds awesome. I think I need to learn how to make bread. I just SUCK at baking although I haven't tried in years.
The raspberry thing looks aweseome too!~
FYI: Your husband looks HOT in a easter bucket!


I think Ham should be banned on Easter, and herby things abound.

Sounds like y'all had a blast!


Glad you had a good time. I want to, however, hear more about this incident with the neighbor.

Also, have I ever mentioned how ubberly cool Jason's glasses are? Wish I could pull that off...


Sounds as though Jason and I shouldn't sit at the same table as no one else may get anything to eat. My wife says she is continualy amazed at the amounts of food I can consume...


*drool* that white chocolate raspberry cake sounds/looks divine!


Sounds fun. ....Wait a minute. My parents did call me for Easter..WAAAAA..they don't love me anymore.


Sounds like fun to me! :D


I don't know where boys put all that food! If I ate that much I would be puking for days. Ugh! It sounds like a yummy Easter.


Looks like yall had a great time.


photos were cute. we ended up NOT going to brunch at the casino (BUMMED). Ate at home and drank wines and cocktails and then ate a ton of cabury's eggs.


How that guy lives with you and still maintains that physique of his--is a mystery that I'd love to discover.

You deserve your well earned title of "Sweet Jay"


Happy Easter! Love the buckethead photo. Good luck finding those two eggs...


First of all, I think it's awesome that you bake things from scratch. Second, Jason's doing what I only WISH I could do -- eating half of cakes and pies.

Okay, now I want dessert...!!!


I think you two are building fine traditions. Looks like heaps of yummy goodness and fun. Although I believe your hubby may have hollow legs. Where in the world does he put all of that food??? My, oh my. :D

oh man, you're like the best GF ever... and I am the worst. easter morning i slept until 2 pm and forgot what day it was. how do you do it!!!???


I know, I know. Life isn't fair. Jason eats like a horse but never gains weight.

And if I were a perfect Easter bunny, I suppose we wouldn't have lost those 3 chocolates.

Jenny, if you think this is bad, you should see him on pot!

Kel, he does have an incredible metabolism (one day, as he gets older, it'll quit on him...and then he'll weigh 600lbs) but I wouldn't say the meal wasn't healthy, I just neglected to name the less glamourous dishes, like greeked cauliflower, which was my favourite part and even Jason had 2 (count em, 2!) helpings!

Mary Pat: Tsoureki is a traditional greek Easter bread, with dyed eggs (red) that once represented the blood of christ. Today it is more common to have pastel coloured eggs. Usually the braid is made into a 'wreath'. Although Jason has already begun eating that bread, the bread I made for supper are standard italian crusty loaves.


It is a lot of work, but I find the motivation every year when I see how excited he is. It's infectious. We like to behave like kids, but there are no grownups around to do the work for us, so one of us has to! Jason makes it worth it.


BlogMad hit!


the peanut butter eggs are the best ones.
I think Jason is living proof of the male phenomenon of bottomless stomach.
of course, if someone cooked/baked for me as well as you do, I'd probably eat more than I could hold as well
: )


Too funny... this was my first easter home alone with my fiance, and I thought I was the only grown woman hiding insane amounts of chocolate for the grown up one she loves... but I think its now a tradition. I'll have to get some of your better hiding spots too, cause I too ran out...


Mmm...apple pie...

He's a man after my own heart. I could sit down and eat half an apple pie for breakfast as well. But I like to warm it up and pour milk over it for breakfast.

What? Hey, it's my face I'm putting it into!


I remember when I could eat like Jason.... those were the days!! Today, I gained 5 pounds reading about what you made!!

Glad you had a good Easter, ours was much quieter!


I am glad you guys had a nice Easter, and the cake looked great, and so did the bread. I don't know how you do it Jay. I am tired just looking at all the work you did.


At the rate he eats, I am quite surprised that Jason doesn't have more resemblance to the Pilsbury Dough Boy


What is this Easter everyone keeps talking about?


Aw, go on, you'd be hurt if he didn't eat your beautiful cakes and pies. Hmm, the rest of us can only stand at the window drooling.


By the time the bunny made it down to my neck of the woods, he was tired and decided to rest a while. I saw this and shot the bastard!

I'm having rabbit stew tonight.


I just wondered, because he reminded me of my hubby when he does it. It's unreal, if I thought about eating all that I'd gain a 100lbs.

Fucking sucks.


Oh Jay can I come live with you? You make such tasty looking treats.

I'm very quiet and I promise I won't eat too much.


I would start coating your house in plastic, as it will not be too ong before Jason explodes.

Or perhaps he will implode after his stomach has created a white dwarf-sized mass of pork chops.


My God! Give me that damn cake!


god i wish i lived in your house....i really do!


Ahhh..the beauties of the 9 to 5! I hated doing shift work, that's gotta suck for you guys. At least you both don't do shift work so you don't have to schedule dates for yourself. You know when you're in relationship hell when you even have to book sex in to your dayplanner.

Your rasberry swirl cake looks fabulous by the way. I'm an avid baker myself, do the whole bread from scratch thing to and yes you're right it's killer on the arms, luckily I don't do it often though so I haven't ended up with popeye arms yet.

I got gypped by the easter bunny though. Oh well he was probably doing me a favour sparing from having to eat them, cause far be it from me to turn them down! I will admit though I'm envious of jason and his mighty stash!


OK, first I was jealous of your baking skills. And the fact that you have the time and desire to bake so much and so often. But now I just hate you both for being able to eat all that good stuff yet somehow manage not to gain weight. Must be all the sex...


damn, do we ever need you to be the bunny in our barren warren!


bone-rattling sex or yummy chocolate? How do you choose?


I got a sugar high just looking at your pics.


OMG...how does he eat so much and stay so thin?! Dude, it's not fair...maybe it's the burning of the mouth trick that does it...

P.S. I totally love your idea of hiding chocolate instead of eggs. Cuz really...how many egg salad sandwiches can you eat before throwing up?


That's a LOT of chocolate, LOL!! I loved this part most:

too bad I liked it because I sure as hell will never get another taste.

LOL! He's like a diet on legs.


mmmmmmmmmm....caaaakeee


Thanks for the great ideas!
Jason is definately spoiled....hahahaaa


Next Easter, if my invitation from George Clooney doesn't thru, I'm inviting myself to yours!


Awww, I


Hmmm, apparently I can't use any html here. What I meant to write was "I 'heart' Jason" but I can't even get that right. And your cake looks absolutely scrumptious!


Sounds like an awesome Easter to me. I had the Easter brunch with girlfriends thing. Lots of mimosa is all I recall.


i honestly think i love you

can't tell you how much i adore reading your blog

just wanted to say that
