You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Unsweetened cocoa.

No. I meant on the container. Underneath all of the nutritional info.

I know the sweetened cocoa had alkali listed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I meant on the container.

So did I. Unsweetened cocoa. That's it, that's all she wrote. Unsweetened and cocoa. Cocoa, preceded by unsweetened.

Unsweetened cocoa.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

(Oh, and the Haggadah used by most families I know is the one made by Maxwell House, which has everything in both Hebrew and English and is about $3, or free if you buy enough coffee, I think.)

ah ha ha ha ha! Hil made me laugh. This is the same Haggadah my family uses.

Back when my father led them, our seders were 9 kinds of wrong. But they were fun.

Okay, I'm not really here. I'm going to bed. goodnight.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Jesus' last meal contained nothing resembling pizza, he probably had lamb.

"And when he had given thanks Jesus took the pizza cutter and sliced the thick crust extra pepperoni in half and said, 'This is my body which is broken for you.'"

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

This is reminding me of the story one of my mom's friends told me about the time that she made Brunswick Stew for a company picnic, at a company that employed a lot of Jews. She didn't really think about it, it was just basically the one thing she knew how to make, so she made that, and brought it, and people were eating it, and enjoying it, and then one of her Jewish co-workers was like, "This is great, what's in it?" And then she realized what she had done. So she was like, "Pheasant!" Because she didn't want to be the one to mention that they were eating pork, and the first meat that popped to mind was pheasant.

It's horrible, and yet it was funny. Whose first thoughts go towards pheasants?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Bitter herbs, symbolozing how bitter we were about the whole slavery thing.

Most people I know use horseradish for the bitter herbs. You can get it in most groceries. People close to me can get it from my yard.

I don't know who published my Haggadah. I'll have to dig it out to check. It's got that 1970s fake stained glass look to it.

Ooo!!!!!!!!!!! Passover is coming!!!! That means macaroons!!!

(You know, times like these, I realize just why it is I've had Jewish friends assume I'm of the people...)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Hi!

Today was too long.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Talk about cupcakes. That'll add some life.
