My Aching Hip

I wasn’t sure if I was going to be up to writing this Pesach but Gerty has urged me to try to give it the best that I can. It hasn’t been an easy couple of months for good ole Bernie. At the beginning of February I had hip-replacement surgery. I have been at home recovering slowly but Gerty has been by my side every step of the way. She has been waiting on me hand and foot and I love her more each day. I finally got to go outside last week and enjoy the beautiful early spring weather. I took a slow “stroll” around the block to get a nice cup of coffee with Gerty and my dear Annie. It felt so good to feel the warm breeze on my face as I had been cooped up for so many weeks.

Right here and now I promise to post a few new recipes and to keep you all in the loop during Pesach 2010. This year I will be watching the cooking instead of doing the chopping and stirring myself. One thing I know I will be doing a lot of is eating and spending time with my wonderful family… my favorite part of holidays. What’s your favorite part? I would love to hear a favorite memory or story from your Passover past or present.

DID YOU KNOW?

Since matzo was traditionally made by hand and was round, the idea of changing how the matzo was made and shaped caused some individuals to believe that the square machine made matzo was not in any way traditional and therefore less kosher.
