Family-Style Easter Menu: Crowd-Pleasing Recipes for the Table

I can’t believe our little one is old enough for his second Easter already. Time flies—I was looking back at last year’s photos and he was so tiny! This year we’re heading to an egg hunt (yes, even though Arlo isn’t walking yet), and I’m hoping the Easter Bunny will hide a little at-home hunt for him like the ones I remember from my childhood.

Even if we had no plans, I’d still use Easter as an excuse to wear all the plaids, pastels and bow ties. There’s something about the holiday that makes me crave preppy, cheerful outfits.
