3 cups large sea scallops, about 20 Salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 pinch granulated sugar Olive oil, enough to coat pan
For Lemon Butter:
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, peeled and minced
1 medium sweet onion, minced
1⁄2 cup dry white wine
1⁄2 cup chicken stock
1⁄4 cup unsalted butter, cubed
1 fresh lemon
1⁄4 cup fresh basil, finely chopped
For Pan-Seared Scallops:
1. Rinse scallops and gently pat until completely dry. Season scallops with salt and pepper and dust lightly with sugar.
2. Preheat oven to 425 F. Coat
a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray or line it with cooking parchment.
3. In a large non-stick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until very hot but not smoking. Working in batches if necessary, add seasoned scallops to pan and cook until just seared. Place seared scallops on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until finished off, or about 6 to 8 minutes.
For Lemon Butter:
1. Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Saute garlic and onion until translucent and
tender. Add white wine and reduce volume by half. Add chicken stock and reduce volume by half.
2. Remove pan from heat and whisk sauce while slowly adding the cubed butter. Do not return to heat, as this will cause the sauce to separate. Once the butter has melted, whisk in the juice of one lemon and half of the chopped basil. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
3. Divide scallops between plates. Spoon lemon butter glaze over scallops and garnish with remaining chopped basil. Serve.

Answering some common questions about Easter
Easter is an important day on the Christian calendar. According to the Compact Atlas of Global Christianity, roughly 2.6 billion people across the globe identify as Christians. As Easter Sunday approaches, answering some frequently asked questions about this important holiday can be a great way for Christians and non-Christians to refresh their knowledge and maybe even learn something new about the holiday.
What does Easter celebrate?
Christians believe that God raised Jesus from the dead three days after his Crucifixion, and Easter celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Do all Christians celebrate Easter on the same day?
No. Most Christian churches adhere to the Gregorian calendar and celebrate Easter on what is widely referred to as “Easter Sunday” by secular organizations and other agencies. But Christian Orthodox churches utilize the Julian calendar to determine when to celebrate Easter. So that is why there is some disparity between the timing of Easter celebrations within Christian churches.
symbol of rebirth and assign a religious significance to burial rituals in which Neolithic peoples buried hares alongside human remains. So while an abnormally large bunny delivering candy and chocolate eggs might not have anything to do with faith-based Easter celebrations, the choice of animal may bear some
How did Good Friday get its name?
Non-Christians may wonder why Christians characterize the day Jesus Christ was crucified as “good.” Though the notion of Jesus Christ being subjected to abuse and crucifixion is anything but good, Christians believe Christ’s willingness to be crucified for their sin ensured their redemption. In addition, Trinity College notes that “good” in this context refers something “holy” or “pious.”
What is Holy Week?
Holy Week is the week leading up to Easter. Various days during Holy Week have their own special significance to Christians. Palm Sunday, Holy Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday are notable days during Holy Week.
How does the Easter Bunny fit into Christian celebrations of Easter?
Though it’s easy to dismiss the Easter Bunny as a secular symbol that has little to do with faithbased celebrations of Easter, reality is not so simple. According to the Smithsonian, archaeologists believe humans living during the Neolithic Age viewed hares as a
relation to the celebration of the Resurrection of Christ.
Easter is a celebratory day on the Christian calendar. In 2026, Easter will be celebrated on Sunday, April 5, in most Christian churches. Orthodox Christian churches will celebrate Easter on Sunday, April 12.

Alicia! Where to start... I have known her for over a year. Now she is my real estate agent. She really has a personal interest it what she is doing. My wife and I had to move to an apartment for a year. Not fun. But let me tell you Lisa gave us the tools to become homeowners. We had 5 months of hurdles financial and medical. We closed on the day she said we would. In fact we could have closed 8 days early if the sellers could have closed on their new place. She took us to the house multiple times to make sure it was right one for us. Then wife and I feel she used all of her knowledge and tools she has to help get us the right deal. All the way to the financial piece and then having a backup plan if there was something missed by the sellers. Will I ever recommend Alicia Carrel in a heartbeat. Everyone should interview many agents before deciding. I know who you will choose. Alicia

Easter egg coloring tips
Many families will soon be partaking in a springtime tradition that has spanned generations: coloring Easter eggs. While eggs once symbolized fertility and rebirth in Pagan celebrations, they have since come to be associated with Christianity. History.com says eggs historically were not allowed to be eaten during the 40 days of Lent. Subsequently, they were painted and decorated to mark the end of penance and enjoyed as a treat on Easter Sunday. Britannica also notes that the egg has come to represent the tomb Christ escaped, much like a chick breaks out of its shell.
Although it may seem like coloring Easter eggs already is a relatively simple project, there are steps that can simplify the process and make eggs more unique.
• Remove eggs from the refrigerator. Prior to dyeing eggs, bring them to room temperature by removing them from the fridge about 20 minutes
before it’s time to start boiling. This minimizes the chances that the egg shells will crack.
• Use a pin. Poking a tiny hole into the large ends of the eggs before boiling can release the air pressure inside and prevent the eggs from bursting during boiling.
• Keep vinegar on hand. Vinegar is the key to vibrant eggs because it acts as a mordant, which helps the dye bond to the shell. Without vinegar, the egg colors will be pale.
• Use a whisk. Instead of potentially breaking eggs when dropping them into dye with fingers or spoons, place the egg inside the wires of a kitchen whisk.
• Use protective gear. Children tend to get messy when coloring eggs. Make sure they are dressed in clothes that can get splattered. Also, wearing kitchen dishwashing gloves or latex gloves will keep hands from being stained by dye. Cover tables or counters with a waterresistant sheet or tablecloth to further prevent staining.
• Experiment with different dyeing methods. Wrap rubber bands or string around the eggs before dipping to create geometric shapes and white lines. For a soft, marbled look,
mix dye in a tray with shaving cream and roll the egg through. For a speckled appearance, place eggs in a container with dry rice and drops of dye and then shake.
• Create a drying station. Letting eggs dry on a paper towel or newspaper can contribute to smears and white spots. Instead, poke flat-head pins into a foam board. Rest the eggs on the pins while they dry.
• Create some sheen. When the eggs are completely dry, rubbing them with a drop of vegetable oil on a cloth will shine them up nicely.
Eggs are a traditional component of Easter festivities and decor. A few easy tweaks can make the process go more smoothly and result in vivid and creative eggs.
