Pesach

[mamadeb]

I bought the non-perishables today. That would be cleaning and lining supplies (foil liners for the oven and the burners, plastic for the fridge, contact paper for the shelves and extra-heavy aluminum foil for everything else), matzo products (meal, farfel, five pounds of regular machine, two boxes of regular whole wheat machine and one box of whole wheat 18 minute. Which is far too much, given no seders, but we will have guests, I hope, the last two days. That should help. Becasue we're not having seders, I'm not getting handmade this year.) A selection of herbs and spices. Balsamic vinegar and safflower oil. Tomato products. Canned fish. Mayonaise and ketchup. I forgot salt and sugar, but I might have them anyway from last year. If not, I have time to buy them.

I'll need to get another bag of coffee and the proper sized filters.

Everything else, I'll get fresh.

I love making my own sedarim. I love the planning and the cooking and having the people of my choice over, and we always have such good ones - we're thorough, interesting and yet manage to end at midnight.

We're going to the inlaws this year.

Well, family is nice too. When I stayed with my in-laws we'd have seder there and that was fun. It was just when I'd walk to someone in the neighborhood that it... just wasn't worth it sometimes.
