Why Is This Weekend Unlike Any Other Weekend…
Well, for one, because my younger brother Tom came down to visit with some friends.
Why does he have this look?
And where are we going?
And why does his other friend have that paper and his shoelace? It’s a fucking story, I’ll tell you that, but I must explain next time.
Because it’s SEDER TIME! Oh yeah, if you missed last year’s, then check it out. Jenna and I were a bit underdressed, but whatever.
Look at that wonderful spread.
The wonderful people.
The aur devoirs I brought, some good ass cheese, salsa, and guac, with matzoh no less.
The hostess sports the classy apron.
Olivia Chris and I reminisced about the ‘yard.
And mirth ensued.
But let us begin, with the Seder Plate.
And all of us sat to start the show.
Aaaaah, so cute.
Howards thinks so.
Claire breaks it all open with the lighting of the candle.
And Aaron leads us with the help of the Maxwell House Haggadah.
Harris is so Jewishly strong.
We passed the matzoh to represent moses going down the nile.
Then the plagues hit.
Olivia brought plague accessories, like wild beasts.
Darkness.
And hail, which I put to better use.
And as we discussed the veracity of ol’ Yaweh actually conspiring to do these things, he spoke up and the window crashed down.
Then jenna made her first Hillel sandwich.
And loved every bite of that Hiroset and horseradish lovin.
What the fuck are you pointing at?
Oh, its fabulous feast time! Everyone cooked such wonderful delicacies.
Yes, eat up one and all.
Jenna thinks it’s delicious, and it was.
Afterward, Carolina found the aficonen (sp?)
And won a prize.
Which meant time for snogging.
And to end the festivities right, that weird goat and two zuzim song.
Host with the most shows off his olden tiedye looks.
Then dessert came out. Oh glorious cheesecake.
But not the chocolate Seder plate cause it melted.
Carolina took up DJ duties.
While harris and I drunkenly sang with the Yeahx3s.
And we ended the night with a juggling demonstration thanks to BVH and mattsam.
Thanks hosts (only half pictured for some reason).
The next day, amidst working all weekend for the Meth project (it was my third weekend in a row with no day off) I said good bye to my bro.
Monday, Jenna and I slept in by mistake (in a tired stupor, I set my alarm for 8:45 at night) and rushed in to make it bed to door in 28 minutes.
Happy Pesach people.
