Easter Egg Tree

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

I came to Easter late. When growing up (and in fact I still do) spent most of Easter Sunday in church. However, after church people come over and there is baking and cooking and a good old fashioned brunch. I like being able to have most of it set up and ready before hand, including decorations. This year I'm really loving the Easter Egg tree with it's old fashioned white painted tree self, it's fun to decorate ahead of schedule as you are waiting for all those eggs to boil.

Egg Ornaments

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Back when I was in middle school we learned how to make Ukrainian eggs. These pastel egg ornaments remind me of the eggs we learned how to make that day, but they won't go bad and they'll look adorable on my white Easter Egg Tree. The white patterns against the pastel, make for a nice creamy setting for the first blush of spring.

Fuzzy Chicks

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

No Easter brunch is complete without the cute hidden table decorations. These fuzzy chicks are just as cute as their live counterparts, but far less mess (and perhaps a tad more responsible). I'd like to put one next to the place card at each guest's place setting on my Easter brunch table. Their innocent and inquisitive expression are exactly what's needed to help set the mood.

Personalized Easter Baskets

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I never believed that there was an Easter bunny. To do so would have lessened the importance of the holiday. However, that didn't stop us from having Easter baskets. The kick off of the season was really when we dragged our Easter baskets out and started sneaking things the rest of the family's basket when no one was looking. After a week of sneaking around, we opened them after Easter brunch. My basket was an odd straw thing that was shaped like a bunny, but I love these plaid baskets with personalized names on them.

Easter Grass

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

At Christmas I hate tinsel. And in the spring I normally hate that cheesy fake plastic grass that lines Easter Baskets. Not so with this grass. It's more of a shredded paper. Quality green shredded paper can be reused year to year for Easter baskets and doesn't stick to everything like that silly plastic grass.

Chick Feet Wire Egg Holders

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

They say the Queen has a boiled brown egg every morning for breakfast. Well, I'm certainly not royalty but I like to be able to provide what my guests like. These chick feet wire egg holders are cute and casual, perfect for the Easter brunch I like to offer to my guests...and if they get a chance to feel like royalty who am I to deny them? :-)

Easter Bunny Tiny Taper Holders

Description

To me these rabbits look like Peter Cottontail ready to bounce all over my Easter brunch and bring fun to the festivities. Normally I'm not a pastel fan, but come spring I throw all my strong colors to the wind and embrace the soft, feminine and sweet. These tiny candle holders are perfect for my Easter brunch!

Easter Egg Candles

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

One thing I don't understand is how people can keep candles for so long, my candle barely have a shelf life of half a year (and that's if I'm being careful)! Granted I might burn candles more than the average person, but I'm beginning to think that's a good thing as it allows me to buy pretty new candles all the time. Candles, like these adorable Easter egg candles. In various Easter colors and egg shapes, they make a nice decoration on the Easter Buffet!

Alabaster Eggs

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I'm an odd girl, though I love Easter and the decoration potential of Easter eggs, I hate the taste of Easter eggs. Well, it's not just Easter eggs per say, but all boiled eggs. These alabaster eggs are the perfect thing for me. They are in pretty pastel, but I don't have to boil them and I don't have to worry about eating them. It's the perfect thing for brunch! Decorations without the associated hassle.

Panoramic Sugar Eggs

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

My stepmother loves decorative sugar. Whether it be decorative sugar cubes for her latest tea or some special confectionery that catches her fancy. As such, every year I try to get her something special for Easter. This panoramic sugar egg is just the trick. It's sugary (she actually likes those crazy frosted sugar cookies), it's cute and it has a darling little chick hatching.

Nostalgic Easter Deviled Egg Platter

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Easter brunch is a bit later than normal brunches. As such, I try to make food that might fit in a little later in the day and food that goes with the egg-y theme. Deviled eggs (with curry and paprika!) have become a surprise hit at my Easter brunches. I don't like them (it's that cold cooked egg thing) but they are the first thing to disappear year after year. This country nostalgic deviled egg platter would be a charming display for my deviled eggs. Plus with what looks like a picture out of a A. Milne story, its simply rustic!

Nostalgic Easter Rectangular Serving Platter

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Easter brunch seems to be a time to indulge in that gentrified country serving wear. This rectangular serving platter with old fashioned Easter prints makes everything seem positively pastoral. Outlined in pink (that baby baby pink that is perfectly pastel) and with a creamy white background, even the simplest fare will benefit from this backdrop.

Nostalgic Easter Plates

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Bunnies seem to pop up in children's books all over the place. From 'little bunny foufou' to 'rabbit in pooh' the bunny is everywhere. These plates celebrate those old school rabbits, pulled from a series of 1920s Easter cards, I'd like to use these to hold a various assortment of treat for Easter brunch.

Egg Fry Rings

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

It's one thing if eggs are messy when it's just you making a lazy Saturday breakfast, it's quite another thing if eggs are messy at brunch. These egg rings help me make picture perfect eggs every time--whether I'm frying or poaching them. I also, love these egg rings because they allow me to use a large pan and make more eggs at once, which is tremendous when I want everyone to eat at the same time.

Ebelskiver Filled-Pancake Pan

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I still remember the first time I had filled pancakes. We were up at a little bed and breakfast off the shore of Lake Superior. Those filled pancakes where perhaps some of the best pancakes I've ever had. This pan will help me duplicate them. Stuffed with a bit of strong jelly (maybe huckleberry or chockcherry now that I live in Montana) I can taste the pancakes already.

Breville Electric Citrus Press

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Back what feels like four million years ago, I nannied for a stay at home mom. She used to say fresh squeezed juice was the ambrosia of the gods. And what can I say, she was right. For brunch I prefer to have the best juice for juice and well, for mimosas (it isn't a brunch without champagne!). This electric citrus press takes the work out of making juice (unlike when I used to hand squeeze it).

Batter Dispenser

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I love waffles, pancakes and the like. Batter items for breakfast are wonderful because you can make (and should) make the batter the night before. Then wake up when you want, roll out of bed and turn on the griddle or waffle iron. The only thing I don't like about batter items, is the mess. You know, when you drop the spoon in the batter or when that quarter cup you've been using to measure out batter makes a mess on the counter. This batter dispenser means my batter mess issue are over!

Easter Nest with Truffled Eggs

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I'm picky when it comes to centerpieces. Especially when it's a family affair, I want to be able to see people. At the same time, I want there to be something that makes it special. This Easter Nest with Truffled Eggs might be just the thing. It's a relatively low centerpiece and yet it has character. Also, people can steal little bits of delicious candy as the meal and conversation progresses.

Truffle Eggs in Box

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Cadbury eggs are just too much for me. Too sweet, too big, too insane. Like Goldilocks might have said, these truffle eggs are just right for me. And more importantly, for my friends. My friends and family are spread out from coast to coast and beyond, but that doesn't mean I still don't want to send them a little Easter treat. And for those close in distance, I like to give people who leave my Easter brunch a little take home treat. These truffle eggs...c'est perfect!

Caffarel Chocolate Eggs

Description

These eggs are like garlic...or maybe even better. There isn't anywhere they won't fit. They are perfect intertwined with the napkins to bring color to my Easter table. They are delightful when tucked into an Easter basket to round out the contents and they are just plain good (mmmm! hazelnuts!). They are a veritable Easter delight.

This year I won't be going home for Easter. Instead I'll be hosting something here. But that doesn't mean I won't be sending something home for Easter. And for m stepmother, who loves iced cookies, this set of iced Easter cookies would make an incredible addition to her Easter basket. Alternately, they would also save me the hassle of trying to decorate cute cookies for Easter brunch. Hmm, maybe they can do both!

Parties are best when they stretch on without people noticing the fact that hours have passed by. When my guests looks up from their after meal coffee and realize they are mildly hungry again because they've been talking so long, I'm happy. And these petite fours in their spring time glory are perfect for that after Easter brunch coffee, or for a nice treat will the younger set are searching for eggs.

Sour Gummy Bunnies

Updated Feb 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I like gummy things. I've even made zucchini gumdrop bread. So when I saw these sour gummies in pink grapefruit, key lime and lemon I wanted them. A sour pink grapefruit sounds fantastic! And I already love sour lemons. But in addition to being tasty, they are also stylish and perfect for a candy dish my living room for people to munch on before or after brunch.
