Setting A Table For A Special Meal
It´s important to decorate the table accordingly to the occasion. The colorsthat go with the celebration are red, white, brown and generally soft variationsof those colors. Easter bunnies and Easter eggs can decorate napkins and tablesheets, especially if there are going to be kids around. They love to findbunnies and eggs everywhere.
But what they love most is to find chocolate eggs and bunnies on the tableand hidden around the house. The tradition of hiding chocolate eggs comes fromEurope but has spread around the globe and at America we are not strange to iteither. Besides, it´s an excellent way to keep them entertained for a while. Youcan have them searching around till they find all of them or get tired.
How Much Chocolate
The amount of chocolate per person can be an issue, though chocolate providesa lot of energy it´s not something to base a meal with. And it provides a lot ofcalories, thus, ladies won´t be eager to eat that much. So if you need tocalculate how much chocolate to buy, think of one small Easter egg or bunny perkid plus a big one with some toy in it every 4 or 5 kids. And when it comes toadults a medium sized egg every 4 or 5 adults will be enough.
The rest of the meal can consist on lighter food like salads and maybe somemeat but with the least fat possible. And remember chocolate goes excellent withcoffee and if you have white cups, it´s an excellent idea to decorate the cupssimilarly to the Easter eggs or bunnies.
