But first, Ben and I continued on our project to get pictures of all of the paperweights by adding these ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0747 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0748 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0749 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0750 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0751 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0752 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0753 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0754 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0755 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0756 to the collection before I peeled the apples ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0757 leaving these ruins in the disposal ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0758 and added the carrot to the coup ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0759 as Suzanne saluted with her cast ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0760 and we began the Cuis-ing ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0761 with added wine ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0762 and another set of quick pulses ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0763 and a stir ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0764 until we had charoset ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0765 you would want to eat.

Next Harry Cummins stopped by ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0766 to drop off Sam and Ben gave his birthday present ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0767 and even in the second take ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0768 couldn't keep his eyes opened.

Jane and I headed off to Staples ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0769 among other errands but got caught in traffic by this beautiful tree ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0770 behind this car ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0771 that ever so slowly brought us along the cemetery ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0772 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0773 until this crossing guard ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0774 finally got things going for us.

Back at home, the food was cooking ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0775 the table was set ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0776 with the new vase ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0777 Suzanne had gotten and the 3 matzot ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0778 were ready to go as we admired the horseradish root ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0779 and the special olive oil ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0780 that we knew not to use for cooking as Ann ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0781 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0782 told us about life in New York and Jane ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0783 admired the matzah ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0784 and macaroons ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0785 Ann had brought while Ben ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0786 went out and brought in the mail. Sarah and Devon arrived ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0787 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0788 and started melting chocolate ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0789 for the strawberries while we pulled out this cheese ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0790 which appeared better sans flash ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0791 and opened it for tasting. Ben ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0792 emerged and we left the matzah ball soup aside ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0793 and headed to the table ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0794 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0795 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0796 where we read from the haggadah ( No, Ben is not asleep ) ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0797 and then had chicken ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0798 as a main course as the table flowed ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0799 with food and my plate grew from this ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0800 to this ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0801 even as Jane was clearing her plate ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0802 and Ben ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0803 was practicing ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0804 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0805 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0806 with the juggling balls he got even as he was unable to keep them in the air.

For dessert, we had macaroons ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0807 and fruit ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0808 and after admiring the dirty plates in the dishwasher ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0809 we brought out the chocolate cake ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0810 and chocolate covered strawberries ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0811 so that my dessert plate could look like this ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0812 as Suzanne ate at the opposite end of the table ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0813 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0814 and we took the required pictures of Jane's foot ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0815 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0816 for posterity. Next, Sarah produced her old and new driver's licenses ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0817 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0818 for all to admire (though the camera did not do a good job) and Jane took this sequence of pictures of Suzanne and I in our Egyptian garb ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0819 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0820 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0821 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0822 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0823 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0824 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0825 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0826 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0827 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0828 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0829 ../../../Sabbat/2005/04.23.05PassoverSeder//IMG_0830 so that we too could feel that with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm we too were brought out from Egypt.
