Oh Yummy Good Leftover Brisket
I just realized while I was eating leftover brisket from a Passover Seder that TODAY is GOOD FRIDAY and I am supposed to be abstaining from meat. GOOD GRIEF CHARLIE BROWN! You see what can happen in a household divided and united at the same time? I wouldn’t miss a Seder dinner with all of its meaningful traditions and Peter wouldn’t want to miss out on the Easter Parade. So although we started out in our lives following different paths, we have always walked together. Well it makes for a lot of holidays – although it’s clear that Peter realizes Christmas is much more fun than Chanukah.
And the refrigerator… Pickled Herring for him, Roasted Red Peppers for me. Mother’s Gifilte in a jar for him and peanut butter for me. And now, that I ate the last of the brisket, we still have Kugel and hard boiled Easter Eggs. And for dessert we can have Matzel Toff or Cadbury Creme Eggs. It may be confusing and sometimes conflicting as in the case of eating brisket on a meatless day in Lent, but it’s NEVER BORING around here. Happy Easter to all and a Guten Pesach too – (for some reason, they get to celebrate for a week ) while we have had 40 days of not eating our favorite foods and only one day of celebration – EASTER.
