I just wanted to take a minute to publicly appreciate my husband. We all have those days where our husbands make us frustrated. And I know I make my husband frustrated at me. It's part of being married to another human being.
But I try to focus on the things that he does for me that are beautiful. Like last night. When he got home, he had a cup full of lemons for me. I love lemons, and he knows this. And he knows that its been a while since I bought any. Well, he had training at work, and they brought lunch in for them. So when all was said and done, there where some lemons left over, and he brought them to me. I love him so much!

Passover
My family and I are going to celebrate passover this year. Bennett and I both felt lead to. And so I started researching. I needed to know more about passover than I did, if we where going to celebrate. And what I found was very exciting. One of the best resources that I found for understanding the passover both the first one and what Jews, in particular Messianic Jews celebrate today, was this video. It really helped explain a lot.
So with that as my theme, here are a couple of recipes that I will be making for our passover celebration.
Charoseth
2 tart apples
1/2 cup walnuts
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon honey
1 tablespoon sweet Passover wine
Core apples (it is not necessary to peel them). Chop apples and walnuts together in food processor blender or by hand until finely chopped (the size of grape nuts) With a wooden spoon, stir in the cinnamon, honey and wine until well blended. Will serve 10-12 people. Serving is 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon per person on piece of matzah.
Matzah Kugel with Cheese
4-6 matzahs
4 eggs
1 pound cottage cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons margarine or butter
Break matzahs into 2" pieces. Mix eggs with milk and reserve 1/2 cup of mixture. Mix the rest with the cottage cheese and seasoning. Dip the matzah into the reserved egg-milk mixture. Arrange these in layers in a greased 3-quart baking dish. Dot each layer with butter or margarine and the prepared cheese. The last layer should be matzah covered with any remaining milk-egg mixture. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes. Serves 4 to 6.
