How to Prepare the Perfect Easter Brunch
With the end of winter and the first rays of sunshine, not only spring but with it the first buds are just around the corner. Also, the time has come for a long and at the same time Christian tradition, which every year attracts especially the children to the Easter egg hunt in the garden, and for the adults to enjoy NZ casino online.
Colorfully painted and glued eggs, hanging on the first branches draped with delicate flowers, delight the whole family and open one of the sweetest celebrations of the year.
In order for Easter to be a complete success, the home furnishings need decorations that match the season. Everything else should also be coherent, when the family reflects on a common time – and this begins with the set table on the morning of Easter Sunday.
WHAT BELONGS ON THE SET TABLE
A real Easter breakfast should be one thing above all: bright and friendly. Easter tableware paired with deco typical motifs are a good basis for an Easter atmosphere.
For this purpose, each family member needs an egg cup, which can also be decorated with some straw as a small nest. The pre-painted eggs now come together with the fresh rolls on the table. Also a yeast plait or wreath is served with pleasure and provides the necessary sweetness. Jam and nut nougat cream go particularly well with this. Who likes it more solid, may enjoy naturally also sausage or cheese with the Easter breakfast.
Meanwhile, it becomes even sweeter with freshly baked waffles, which can be enjoyed on Easter morning. Especially in the Thuringian region, people even eat cake for breakfast. The “Easter lamb” popular in many households, for which a special baking pan is needed, can certainly be enjoyed already in the morning.
Croissants and muffins are also popular. Among young and old, for example, blueberry muffins enjoy enormous popularity. These can be decorated as desired.
THE RIGHT DECORATION FOR A GREAT EASTER AMBIENCE
Apart from the table, you can also decorate the rest of the apartment in an appealing way. Most Easter decorations are available in the numerous home furnishing stores. It pays to be quick, because the most beautiful decorative elements are sold out especially quickly.
Of course, you do not have to fall back on what is offered to you in stores. Even self-made Easter decorations have their charm – especially when the whole family helps.
Before designing, it is necessary to decide on the style and color. Many choose a yellow decoration and combine green objects to it. In general, it is advisable to choose mild and bright colors, rather than going for garish tones.
Small chicks, bunnies, a school of rabbits, chickens, as well as sheep and door wreaths belong in practically every Easter home. Yet it doesn’t always have to be plastic. Wood looks pretty longer, shows quality and because of the surface is easier to remodel.
Small branches and flowers are also an interesting part of the Easter decoration. The traditional Easter bouquet brings spring into the home.
Easter tablecloth, decorations in the window sill and windows hung with Easter decorations look very inviting, round off the overall impression and finally increase the feel-good factor.
THE SEARCH FOR EASTER EGGS – IT’S GREAT FUN!
There’s no question about it – the youngest participants of the Easter breakfast naturally don’t want to sit at the table the whole time, but finally move on to the “main part” of the day: the fun egg hunt.
As basic equipment, children need an Easter basket in which to place the collected eggs. Many parents make the baskets together with the children using a weaving technique.
In principle, everything that brings joy may be placed in the Easter basket. From Easter eggs painted together to chocolate and other sweets, anything goes – the only thing left to do is find the goodies!
By the way, candies and other sweets can also be made from juices and honey. This way, the sugar content can be controlled a little better.
When hiding the sweets, you should make sure that the little things can’t be found right away, but that you don’t have to search in the most impossible places either – otherwise this could frustrate the children. It has been said that parents have found such ingenious hiding places that they themselves no longer even knew where the sweets and small gifts were.
Everything should also be hidden in the children’s field of vision (and not on top of the cupboard) so that they have a fair chance and do not have to put themselves in danger during the search by climbing a ladder, for example.
