Okay, it’s been awhile since Passover 2008, but since I’m in charge of Eric’s blog now, I’m going to revisit days gone by. Sitting at my parents house one day, back when John and Emily lived in town. (We miss you!), I mentioned something about doing a Passover again. Now, if you know John, you don’t just casually mention something without intentions to follow through. So the next thing we knew we were planning a Passover seder.
So I dug out the Haggadah I wrote up several years ago, and we unpacked the plastic “wine” glasses and started getting ready for Passover. I admit, we did not completely clear the house of hametz, nor did we burn the last crumbs. But we did clean up and vaccum.
Matzo, maror (bitter herbs- horseradish and romaine), karpas, salt water, the Four Questions and Elijah’s cup. We pretty much has a traditional Jewish seder with a few Christian side notes thrown in. And we did actually eat roasted lamb which I guess is not traditional, (at least not since 70 A.D when the temple was destroyed.)

I'm always impressed with your willingness to go all out when trying some of the new cultural foods and traditions. Looks wonderful even if it happened awhile ago.
