Around 8 loads. I am so bored that I go to my neighbors and ask them if I can do their laundry also.

Do you eat Matzo during the year?

Yup that’s my minhag
Matzo or matzo meal at least three times a week. In meatballs, schnitzel, or plain as a sandwich
We go through about two lbs per week.

Tell us about the largest Seder you’ve attended

Locked up my home and stayed in a 5 star Hotel for the 2 weeks before and week of Pesach in Miami. Gorgeous rooms, food was amazing. No shortage of anything. There were about 200 families in our group and we tried to sing all together.

have you ever made a surprise party for any family members?

2 are real. 1 isn't.
One paints quite well.
One loves horses and nature.
One is a makeup artist and takes care of the folks in the White House before any TV time.

Do you read the comics or (kids) stories that come in the Mishpacha or Aim?

WOW!!! You're ammmaaaaazzzing!!!!!!! How'd u manage all that in one day?

I just love art. (I actually do) I love art so much that I spend most of my days in the art museum.
I have nothing to do. My time is free. I walk through the galleries and stare in awe at the pictures and paintings hanging on the walls. I'll let you in on a secret - I painted a lot of the pictures there. Shush! Don't tell anyone! I like to be humble Cool

Tell us about your job as a vet surgeon.

Where do you choose to be right now

Volunteering at cleaning other people's homes for Pesach. Because I already finished cleaning my own, of course.

How do you choose your friends?

I make a goirel of 3 names at a time, whichever paper is picked out, the person with the name written on it becomes my friend.

How do you decide what to cook for supper?

I open the dictionary and whatever word I see first I make a food that rhymes with it.

Oh, was I excited! I had the perfect recipe from, you won't believe who - my Russian cleaning lady who has a Jewish neighbor in Russia, who taught her how to make kneidlech.
Instead of matzo meal she used mashed potatoes. My excitement must've run a bit too far b/c I decided to be creative and add ground chicken for taste and I didn't want tiny kneidlech so I put in a half cup of baking powder instead of a drop.
You can imagine the outcome Sad

we had footballs not kneidlech.

Tell us how you prepare the Maror - the real sharp one?

I took some brownies I prepared for Pesach over to my neighbor so we can rest and have some coffee. I mention my machine is broken and I can't grate the Marror. She offered her machine,I said ''You're a doll'' and I ran out and came back an hour later to pick up the Marror. My eyes didn't burn at all.

Who usually burns the Chametz?

What's the question? The Chief Rabbi of every city burns the chametz of every citizen.

What do you serve for supper on the days right before Pesach? Like tonight and tomorrow?

↑ rachelli66 ↓

Mon, Apr 03 2023, 2:05 pm

Bought pizza, donuts, bagels, lox, cereals,and we will eat it all until we burn the chametz on Wednesday. The store was empty near the Chametz aisle so we just grabbed whatever we saw. No reason to be hungry the last couple days.

Do family members help peel the apples for the Charoset?

Do you have a Pesach kitchen?

My main floor is just one big pesach kitchen, closed up the rest of the year. Down in the basement we squished a little couch and dining room table, next to our teeny tiny year-round kitchen.

Which of your children has the most unique name?
