Happy Passover

We are having our Family Passover Seder tonight.  Which is a day before the official start on Monday at sunset.  But it is the time when we could get the maximum number of family together.  So tonight we will tell the story of the Exodus from Egypt, eat the traditional meal, have a few inter-generational misunderstandings and drink four cups of wine.  I will try to draw a parallel between our historic exodus and current migration (Brilliant Details Here).  Nurit’s Matzoh Ball Soup will be delicious, dayenu*, but we will keep eating.  This year we are supporting Israel by attempting to buy more Israeli Products.  There is a great web site to help find products from Israel.

What is the opposite of a boycott?

Anyway Happy Passover to all.

May you escape from whatever symbolic or real bondage that is afflicting you.

* Dayenu: Hebrew for “that would be enough” and the refrain from a traditional Passover song.
