It was Passover, 2012 and the table was set for 19 (actually 20 but then we figured out that we didn't need the last place)
and the seder plate
and relishes
and parsley
and marror were ready
as were the flowers
as the seating was arranged
and the fish plates were organized in the kitchen
as the carrots were prepared
and Josephine was stirring the oil getting ready for something
as the charoset (or was it chopped liver?)
carrots
and grated cheese were ready
as the 10 plaques appeared
as the table was ready
along with the sidebar
and the first matzah of the year appeared
as the cheese
chopped liver
carrots
grated cheese
and whipped cream
were accumulating
with the matzah
and brisket
and matzah crackers
and the appetizers were assembled
but we didn't want to forget the carrots
as Ben prepared to get dressed
and I looked at the stones
and glass balls
before going back to see the asparagus
as Josephine worked
and I admired the eggs
and chicken
and vegetables, all ready for the approaching people
as the macaroons
brought out Adam, Hannah and Laura
who were followed by Martha
Leslie, Chip and Henry
Kathleen and Mitch
Wellington and Jeff
And Tamar and tom
before Jane
and Katy emerged from their long drive
and once Bill arrived
we could be seated and conduct the service.
When we got to the appropriate place, i was served a fishless plate
as the others had their fish
letting me admire the seder plate
before the soup
chicken
and carrots were served
so that my plate could slowly come together.
At this point, Tom decided he needed to take some photos of our end of the table
and I took a picture of Leslie taking a picture of me
and then the desserts made their way through the table
with the final dessert being the Afikoman which Wellington found.
