Ours was roasted boneless leg of lamb. I made some mint sauce for it. We
roasted some potatoes, carrots and parsnip and steamed some broccoli. We
were going to have asparagus but we did the shopping on Thursday to make
sure we got some lamb before the Easter rush and I didn't want to get
asparagus that far ahead. I forgot to go out and get some on Saturday.
So...... broccoli instead.

My wife's meringue shells turned out beautifully. I made some ice cream to
serve them with and some fruit salad with pineapple, kiwis, grapes, frozen
raspberries and banana, and chocolate sauce.
