Passover

How I wish now I had taken the oppertunity to snap a picture of the meal. There is a message behind the roast veggies, potatoe kugel, roast lamb and candels. Passover is more than the sum of its parts and much of my joy is slowing going through the imagery and feeling the joy and the sorrow of what transpired so long ago. A wish I have is to celebrate the Passover feast in Israel, Perhaps one day.

I believe the girls understood the message behind passover and hopefully understood it to be more than a simple story and a dinner as simply tradition. I can't imagine what it would have been like for the Israelites that night. How did they know to paint their post and lintel, did the message get out to each and every family, were there families who didn't believe...

Anyways it was a joy to celebrate and I enjoy so much of the passover foods.

There is freedom in Passover ... may each of you find freedom

End of a weekend

Well as weekends go this one went far too fast. Thankfully the weather was so nice out yesterday, so prior to going into Surrey I went for a run. The run was great although I am really noticing that my allergies are really bad and I find myself gasping for air a lot! But the 9 k run was beautiful and I did it in okay time, 49 minutes. I put a pic at the bottom of this post to show what state my toe is in. For some reason most won't even look at it :o)  Oh and in the one of me running, see if you can find one of the great mysterious of life!!

My swing is now up and I wishes I could be swinging away and contemplating life, if only the weather would allow for it.

Otherwise Passover is coming in two short days and I have a meal to prepare. I think I will make a kugel again, not sure if I should do a potatoe or noodle though.

May all of you find the security that Passover is

Family Day

It has been a while since my last post. Life has been hectic and way too full. Running will be on the back burner or a week or two as well while I recoup from my last, most pitful, race.

I spent the day baking, looking at houses and playing some wii games with the family. Below is a pic of the cake Brie and I made, it was kick ass by the way, Coconut Chocolate with Coconut Drizzle.
