What We Need the Most

Aunt Genocide displays the seder plate
For the first (and I hope the last) time, our family seder didn't include Grandmommy or Poppa. In fact, it was just the SuperMommy family, Aunt Genocide and her boyfriend, and some family friends. A small seder, at which the absence of my parents were very much felt. They instead had their seder in Spain, with Great Grandmommy and Great Granddaddy. So, Aunt Genocide and I rolled up our sleeves and did what we thought Grandmommy would have done. We put together a kick-ass seder.

Matzo spanikopita, mushroom stuffed mushroom gratins, a beet filled salad, gigantes, matzo ball soup, pecan sunshine cake, flower arrangements, candy dishes, relish plates... mom would have been proud.

This year, the girls learned a Passover song at Hebrew school I had never heard before. I never really realized exactly how true it was.



Oh what are the things we need for the seder table?
These are the things we need for the seder table
We need a kiddush cup for the seder table
But the people around the table are what we need the most!



Oh what are the things we need for the seder table?
These are the things we need for the seder table
We need a haggadah for the seder table
We need a kiddush cup for the seder table
But the people around the table are what we need the most!



Oh what are the things we need for the seder table?
These are the things we need for the seder table
We need the seder plate for the seder table
We need a haggadah for the seder table
We need a kiddush cup for the seder table
But the people around the table are what we need the most!




Oh what are the things we need for the seder table?
These are the things we need for the seder table
We need the three matzot for the seder table
We need the seder plate for the seder table
We need a haggadah for the seder table
We need a kiddush cup for the seder table
But the people around the table are what we need the most!






Chag samayach, lovely readers! Next year in Jerusalem!
