I am beginning to get the hang of these holidays now that I am getting older. For instance, this week I knew something was up when Daddy and Mommy starting getting rid of all the bread in the house and all these boxes of matzoh started showing up… Â It must mean Passover is coming. Â I was right.
Along with the all the Matzoh I knew that this would also mean Two big family dinners with lots of yummy food. Â Only difference is this year I really got to partake in all the yummy food. Â The first night was at my house. Â Mommy started preparing and getting all the ingredients for her homemade dishes the day before and then woke up bright and early to start cooking. Â If you haven’t figured it out by now….my mommy is a great cook. Â Nanna showed up later in the day to make her famous Russian Cabbage soup. Â I helped Nanna stir the cabbage and the $100 plus dollars worth of Kosher flanking meat ( nana goes a little overboard). Mommy made an amazing vegetable Matzoh Lasagna.
At our seder Sammy and Hannah read the 4 questions ( but in no time I will be reading them being that I am the youngest) while Daddy lead the Seder. Â Then everyone took turns telling the story of Passover and reading from the Haggadah. Â We were joined by cousin Jason who always has a smile on his face! The meal was great. Â Everyone ate too much food.. which is a really good sign for Passover! Â Sammy even ate like 8 peices of gefilte fish.
The next night the seder was at Uncle Seth and Aunt Addie’s house. Â Aunt Helene and her son cousin Andrew along with family friend Jan joined us too. Â It was lots of fun and always a good time when everyone gets together….. Â now I just hope that I will be able to poop in the next week after eating all this Matzoh!!!!!
Next Year in Jerusalem
