Your dinner sounds really delicious. We get together with family so I'm not sure what all will be served, yet....most likely ham will be the main dish with lots of different sides, veggies and, of course, deviled eggs.

On Easter we will all be at daughters; we will have more of a brunch cause the kids have to drive back. We will have ham, a couple of salads and rolls, plus a few appitizers and wine, beer and mimosas...
