Ham: The Aftermath

If there is one word that summarizes our Easter experience, I'd have to say that word would be "pig". We pigged out, we ate pig -- you get the picture. We threw a dinner party and cooked our hocks off but we were too busy to take photos. Sadly, I will have to leave the gluttonous vision of this culinary adventure to the gentle reader's imagination. I will give you the menu though....


Snacks:
cheese plate, homemade tapenade, sauteed shrimp with slivered garlic, parsley and pimento.
To Start: Alaskan King Crab, fennel and blood orange salad in a cilantro citrus vinaigrette, Cream of Wild Mushroom Soup
The Main Event: Bourbon & Molasses Glazed Smoked Ham (the one food photo I did manage to take)


also...
Pureed parsnips, roasted baby carrots and asparagus, roasted butternut squash risotto w/crispy sage, garlic mashed potatoes and sarah's awesome chocolate cupcakes.



Before:

And the aftermath....
