Христос Воскрес! - Easter Table with Food from the Basket

This is a beautiful table set for Easter.
Here are the photo notes:

"The traditional Ukrianian Easter greeting is "Христос Воскрес!" which means "Christ is Risen!". The response is "Воїстину Воскрес!" - "Indeed He is Risen!".

I decorated the three Ukrainian Easter eggs (pysanky) on the table. The large one is an ostrich egg, the middle one a goose egg, and the small one a duck egg. They're done mostly in Hutsul style. My family's were much simpler."
