There’s no Seder like our Seder

We celebrated Passover in the traditional way this year, by getting together with family and stuffing our Kosher for Passover-holes (or K-for-P, as our friends say) with matzo balls. If you would like to add a surreal twist to any Seder, might I suggest adding in some songs about Jewish traditions set to show tunes? Aaron's favorite was to the tune of The Flintstones theme song and included the lyrics, "Moses, he's our Moses...Out of, Pharaoh’s Egypt went the children that he soon would lure." I was myself was partial to "Haggadah wash that man right out of my hair."

Dylan celebrated by dressing in traditional Jewish clothing and dipping not just bitter herbs but also everything else in salt water. She also participated in the traditional Passover paddle boat outing.

Some enkoshered evening
You may see a matzoh
You may see a matzoh
Across a crowded room
Then fly to its side
And make it your own
Or all through your life you may knosh all alone

Softly, deftly, matzoh shall caress you
Knosh it, feel it, secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind,
in this knoshing that you know you cannot fight
the knoshing of the matzoh of the night.

okay those comments were oddly pornorific. I would like people also to notice who is pedaling in all of the paddle-boat pics.
