due to me fuc*ing up in my last exam, I'm not with my family but sitting home alone and learning stuff about organic chemistry.
Really should have made pictures of my lunch, would be a nice contrast to your really nice dish!
(btw. I got toast and some sausages.... )

I ate "croque-monsieur"...
(Not my pic, mine look better ;-) )
You take sandwich bread (pain de mie), and put some ingredients between two pieces of bread but my recipe differs a bit. I put bacon, goat cheese, and cheddar. You put this in a specific machine that "stick" the bread together and cook the whole ingredients. And it's yummy.
Not very Easter, but that's all I had at hand.

It's not a toaster like this:
...
but something like this:
You open it in two, and put the croque-monsieur in it.
This is something like what I had in mind, only it looks really hi tech. I meant the simple two-plates toaster. Does this device do anything extra? :d And what does croque-monsieur mean?

It's the exact one that I have. It's not high-tech at all ! 
You can change the plates and make waffles too... But that's it.
Believe me guys. Bacon + cheddar + goat cheese = orgasm.
As for "croque-monsieur", I would quote wikipedia:
The name is based on the verb croquer ("to crunch") and the word monsieur ("mister")—the reason behind the combination of the two words is unclear—and is colloquially shortened to croque. While the origins of the croque-monsieur are unknown, there are many speculations on how it was first originated. The croque-monsieur's first recorded appearance on a Parisian café menu was in 1910.[1] Its earliest published use has been traced back to volume two of Proust's In search of lost time (À la recherche du temps perdu) (1918).
