On Monday at sunset we will celebrate our Jewish Roots for the 27th year with a Passover Seder. We have a lot of memories over the years and I always look forward to eating this special meal with its unique foods and order of celebration. One of my favorite memories over the years is the hiding of the Afikomen matza. The Rabbi, or my husband in our home, places three pieces of matza (unleavened bread) in three pockets of a bag called the Afikomen. The Afikomen is placed on the table with other elements. At the beginning of the Seder, the rabbi removes the middle matza, breaks it in half, and hides the half in a linen napkin somewhere in the room. Towards the end of the night, just after the Seder meal is eaten, the rabbi turns to the youngest person, usually a child, and asks him to find the hidden matza. He then rewards the child usually with some chocolate candy. We’ve asked Jewish people why this is part of the ritual and most reply that they do not know what it represents. I’ve rea...
OH that's funny how they did that.
ReplyDeleteAnd to answer your question about my "little" makeover. I did do it. I am trying to find something that works for me. I tried to add the pictures of the family but there just wasn't enough room. I'm going to try to get one good picture with all of us in it to put on there!
Thank you for your very sweet words my friend.
Happy Friday to you.

That's a real pitfall alright! LOL
ReplyDeleteFor the last 4 days, I was twiddling my thumbs, trying not to be antsy for your "Friday Funnies". I'm thinking "pain and cold" with that fall! Have a great weekend sister Mary! God bless. Love and blessings to you.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine?
Thanks for that laugh, poor girl♥
WOW! GLAD It was not me.LOL
ReplyDeleteI almost agreed for you to call me "leadfoot" except it's not a habit on my part ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's great you had fun with your grandbaby at the mall! And that your son-in-law had a chance to see and speak with you guys. That was a very precious moment!!! Everybody needed that...specially him.
I'm working this weekend [nights] but I'll try to enjoy it and I'll try to "behave". Gotta' etch in my heart "I'm Christ's Ambassador" so that you don't call me "leadfoot" again. :)
It's always great to hear from you and God bless you and your family. May you have a wonderful weekend.

ReplyDeleteMy dear friend,
ReplyDeleteI wasn't expecting that! It made me jump when she fell into the hole, but at the same time I had to chuckle.
I had to stop by for the Friday funnies even though it is 12:15 in the morning.
I love you dear friend and thank you so much for your prayers and uplifting comments. You are a treasure to me.
Hugs & blessings,
Alleluiabelle
