[QUOTE="DDD, post: 262483, member: 35"] I have no ethnic Easter menu history but I do think that having "too much" food was more important in previous generations. It could be because of the Depression or WWII rationing or just because immigrant families from all over the world sought the sense of well being. My siblings and I always have too much prepared when we have company...just like my parents did back in the day. on the other hand, our children (who, lol, are more successful overall than we were) seem to focus on quality food prep with moderate and healthier offerings. :winking: My Aspie difficult child, I just remembered, was overheard telling someone that our family always had lots of food "because we remember the potato famine in Ireland". LOL I'm sitting her laughing after that popped in my head. Can you just image what that adult thought? :blushing: Have a great Easter pig out! DDD [/QUOTE]
