Χριστος Ανεστη! (take two)

This weekend was Greek Easter (much further apart from traditional Easter than last year). John and I went to the Greek Orthodox church for midnight service on Saturday. The service was about 2 1/2 hours and this year. Fortunately for me, I remembered the correct response when I got my egg after the service this time.

John's mother was telling me about past Greek Easters, before John's grandmother passed away when they would go to midnight church, then to his grandma's for food and wouldn't get home until 5am. The Greeks do know how to celebrate.

Sunday, we met his extended family (and other church members) for lots of Greek food. I tried the lamb again this year. I wasn't a huge fan last year because it was a bit dry, but it was very tender and moist so I'd have to say I like lamb.
