Palm Sunday

How long will you have been married?



Saturdays are almost always worknights for me, and next Saturday's no
exception. Otherwise I'd be more than willing -- provided you can make it to
my house for the dinner!

it's a "special occasion" place. I might go fishing in their trout
stream. "-)

That depends if one is East or West. The entire 40 days of Lent
according to every Orthodox person, priest and bishop I've talked to or
read of includes them in the 40 days, while placing Holy Week apart as a
separate fast. None of them would assume that there could be full
fasting on Sunday.

In the West, though Sundays are not part of Lent, Palm Sunday begins
with rejoicing and closes with the Passion narrative. Not exactly
celebratory.

Oh, sure. There's a reason I start my Easter baking on that day. But a
special "Palm Sunday" meal? Not so much.


Savory palmiers are good just about any time.


The mini-quiches are more suitable to my Easter Sunday finger food
requirements but I've been getting beaucoup spinach in the box, so maybe
some other time. Do please post the recipe when you have a chance.

Exactly. I find it interesting that no religious Christian I know
marks the day with a festive meal. No Christian tradition I know of
does so. The only food I can think of that would remotely be connected
to it would be palmiers.


Sounds lovely. :-)

No lamb. I don't eat it. Steven loves lamb but since I don't eat it, I
don't cook it anymore. It will be brisket. Not sure what else. Steven
will probably do his kugel and I'll probably buy some asparagus and some
new potatoes to go as sides.

I'm planning too much food, as usual. We used to host our entire
church. Last year it was just us, this year it's us and two other
families over the first two days of the Octave.

For Breakfast we'll have:
Paschal Bread with Red Eggs
Pascha Cheese
Scotch Eggs (only made with Chorizo instead of breakfast sausage)

Two Herbed Legs of Lamb, one roasted and one grilled, with a Red Wine
Pan Sauce
Harissa
Laban bi Chiyar
Tabbouleh
Hummus
Baba Ghanooj
Pita Bread
Tamis (I finally found a recipe)
Waraq Ounab
Sambousak
Fateer bi Sabanich
Loobiyeh bi Zeit
Gatayif
Baq'lawa
Basboosa
Ma'amoul (maybe, I didn't get a mold as the store had _just_ sold out
when I got there)

Rich takes a lot of the desserts to his staff after Pascha and we
have a leftover feast the next day with friends who had to be at family
dinners on Sunday. This meal basically provides for two dinners and
most of our lunches that week.

I'm busy planning all sorts of feasting foods for Bright Week. We
usually can't handle all the rich foods and meat during the Paschal
Octave after all the fasting, but we sure try.
