The kids are dressed to the nines in their Easter best. Loaded full of sugar from their Easter baskets, they're bouncing off the walls, waiting in line for Easter brunch. Their parents will pay a pretty penny for this special Easter meal, and the kids would much rather be at home trying out their new kite or scooter. I.Qlinary, a dinner preparation service in Littleton & Lone Tree, may have just the answer for antsy kids and overpriced brunches.They've rolled out Easter Brunch To-Go.For only $45, customers receive pre-assembled Crème Brulee French Toast, Elegant Brunch Casserole, breakfast sausage, gourmet cinnamon rolls & gourmet scones. All the items come frozen - simply thaw (or bake from frozen in some cases), cook and brunch is served. The meal serves 6-8 people."Add some fresh fruit, coffee and orange juice, and you're set," explains owner LouAnn Wukitsch.
Pet food: Gourmet vs. good enough
Grammy's Pot Pie needed a little more salt. So did the chicken thighs with peas, carrots and potatoes made by Fromm. The pumpkin crumble dessert from Nutro smelled good and had plenty of ground cinnamon but having less than 100 calories per serving helped make up for its bland taste. These recipes may sound good to you, but the food typically doesn't find its way to a dinner table. This fare - complete with slogans like "It's not dinner without dessert" - is for dogs and cats. Recent pet-food recalls are driving pet owners to consider gourmet options. At the very least, experts say, pet owners are becoming more educated about what they're serving their animals. Those choices can be beneficial for a dog or cat, but they're likely to be more expensive and in some cases may not be worth the money.
