Dang Peach Sammich to you to Robert!

Happy Passover to you - and Frankie Tripod too

another in a series of seemingly endless challenging days ended early enough for me to make a nice whole chikens to go with The Lovely Caren's magical chikens soup and some other stuff.

we are still living with the burden of sadness, that may never change, and being isolated from our remaining immediate family adds to it, yet sometimes there is light even in the darkest of times...we are compelled to keep searching for it. At least I am. Wandering in the desert wilderness for 40 years had to be nearly as difficult, and I am here because of those survivors.

So we participated in a zoom seder with our closest friends and their extended family with whom we are also close...hell it's almost more of our real family after all these years.
And a bonus...when I spoke with my mother she was 100% aware of the seder, even told me it was only the first of two nights!.

But we really missed having granddaughter Evy (as in chevy) snooping around our house looking for the Afikoman.

Google it ya goyishe kopfs.

Not fair making us do more homework on a school night Papa...

I am sorry for your pain Frank.

I too have dealt with some devastating family experiences as well.
All I can say is those who love you for who you are and are willing to have your back through anything - that is your true family. And it is my belief that you will find many of them here...

I hope that while you may experience continued sadness, you may also experience the joys of all of the positive aspects of life. You are a good man. You do not deserve to suffer...

Uhhhh, don’t get me wrong, you have laid a lotta dumps here...

Sorry I missed this yesterday. Chag Pesach kasher vesame’ach.

Um, if you're connecting with Izon then I get the dump reference. But you should leave the corn in there. Don't be taking that out, it's not meant to be recycled.

So having got that out of the way, you're a good man Frank. Kind with a generous heart. You're alright.

Even if you guys did kill my Lord and Savior. I forgive you.

It's all good bro, he came back to the party three days later.

Happy Passover!

Tried having a Seder with the wife, the three year old and the 6 month old girls. I come from a long family history of "4+ hour seders"...

We lasted about 8 minutes before I was sitting at the table alone drinking wine. The three year old was running around the house yelling "dayenu, dayenu" over and over again and the six month old and the wife escaped to the bedroom to feed in peace. Somehow, I managed to get the infant to bed, the afikomen hidden and then found, and the wife and I and the three year old finished off the manischeiwitz (the wife and I, not the three year old) and concluded the Seder with jelly fruit slices, which are apparently like crack to my three year old.

Attended one Seder when I was younger.
Now I understand why you Jews feel so oppressed...

changed it when things went wrong in Spain.

HARELIP!!!!

Happy Passover 2021!

Happy Passover!

Frank hope you and the fabulous Caren are well my friend.

Happy Passover!

I'll tell my wife to save you some. When you coming?

thank you bruddah.
I'm seeing signs that keep me hopeful...

I made a decent chicken soup tonight but bought the matzah balls (and 3.5lbs of chicken backs and necks and stuff) yesterday from an ultra Kosher market down the block from the ultra Orthodox synagogue where Caren and I both got the second Moderna shot.
Caren said she can't make her recipe for only a few and I'm the only one of the two of us who eats matzah balls, so I told her I'd make the soup too...hers is soooo great though.

T minus 13 until we are fully vaccinated!

And Happy Passover all y'all...feels great to be free.

You've always been free Frankie. Free to do whatever the fluck you wanna do... it was fear that fettered you, my friend.

If a vaccine makes you feel better... Mazel Tov.

Ahhhhhhh... free at last, thank God almighty.... free at last.

Nope. Sorry. That was mah bruthas back in 1865. Then again in 1965. Pretty sure we alls been free since then. We got rules and stuff that the democrats thought was necessary. Minorities can't succeed without the white mans help don'tcha know...

Now I ask you... who is racist? The man who believes everyone can succeed, or the man who believes minorities can't succeed without help? Who is racist? The man who believes everyone should vote with an ID, or the man who believes minorities can't get an ID without help?

Everyone of age has an ID. Why is it that democrats don't want voter ID? Weird. Odd. Strange. Downright fkn Twilight zone.

Enjoy the holiday everyone!

Passover starts tomorrow night at sundown.
Chag Pesach Sameach
Happy Passover 2022 Holidays!

Robert never fails! I plan to read from op to the end every year...hey, why is this night different from all other nights?
HA!

Chag Sameach indeed!


No official seder again this year. Gonna do a family brunch with daughters, grandkids, hopefully sil and almost sil directly across the street from my mother's assisted living joint Saturday at noon.
Restaurant is called Northern Spy (Canton, MA) and is located inside Paul Revere and son's copper mill! Place is beautiful, plan to eat on the back patio.

Dripping with history and cool stuff. Produced the copper that went on the ship hulls of the Navy, on Old Ironsides (USS Constitution), Massachusetts State House, blah, blah, blah.
Gene, you probably already know about this side of the Revere family business

local product

I have my Passover Ham ready to go in the roaster!
