/collapses... Seder...complete...
L'Cygna Tovah
I'm very full and very tired
L'Cygna Tovah
we did a super Good Parts Version, as we do, and still it took 5 hours from guest arrival to guest departure
HIKIKOMORTIS
Geez
L'Cygna Tovah
we're talkative motherfuckers, as Jews tend to be
L'Cygna Tovah
also, four-course meal
ArtIsArt
Sounds exhausting.
L'Cygna Tovah
it was! doesn't help that I didn't really sleep last night (whoops)
ArtIsArt
/baps
ArtIsArt
Bad.
L'Cygna Tovah
mom went flat sometime during dinner, for which I don't blame her, since she did all the cooking
L'Cygna Tovah
I knowwwwww
L'Cygna Tovah
I did go to bed! ...at 4 am, but still
ArtIsArt
Sleep well tonight though!
L'Cygna Tovah
I will!
HIKIKOMORTIS
Talkative and sarcastic, right?
L'Cygna Tovah
oh yes
L'Cygna Tovah
maximum sarcasm
HIKIKOMORTIS
And lots of hand gestures
L'Cygna Tovah
and puns. I don't know if puns are a Jewish thing or not but they're very Us.
ArtIsArt
it fun?
HIKIKOMORTIS
We're mostly puns and off-color humor. ^^;
ArtIsArt
My familly's all puns.
L'Cygna Tovah
it was fun!
HIKIKOMORTIS
Now I'm curious, what's your favorite traditional/stereotypical Jewish food?
L'Cygna Tovah
hmm
L'Cygna Tovah
latkes! I don't get them often because they're hard to make, but nummmm
L'Cygna Tovah
with applesauce or sour cream, I dun care
HIKIKOMORTIS
I LOVE LATKES
HIKIKOMORTIS
I eat them with applesauce on the side because I love applesauce, just not ON them.
ArtIsArt
Yum indeed.
HIKIKOMORTIS
And I make a KILLER matzoh ball soup
L'Cygna Tovah
my mom makes it better
L'Cygna Tovah
like, no offense, but I'm required to say that
HIKIKOMORTIS
XD
L'Cygna Tovah
her matzoh ball soup is REALLY GOOD tho
HIKIKOMORTIS
I get fancy, I bruise fresh rosemary and peppercorns in a mortar and make a bouquet garni.
L'Cygna Tovah
(but also, it's my mom's, so it has to be best)
ArtIsArt
(I'm polish so latkes are a thing I enjoy but not matzoh ball soup.)
L'Cygna Tovah
oh wow fancy
HIKIKOMORTIS
I'm Polish on my dad's side. They're Polish Jews.
HIKIKOMORTIS
And dad's been married three times. All shiksas.
ArtIsArt
What's that mean?
HIKIKOMORTIS
Non-Jewish women
L'Cygna Tovah
my mom is only Jewish by marriage, but she has adopted cookery
ArtIsArt
I see.
HIKIKOMORTIS
I even like gefilte fish with horseradish if I can scrape off the jelled broth.
ArtIsArt
All this sounds pretty good...
HIKIKOMORTIS
Gefilte fish is horrific looking
HIKIKOMORTIS
But tasty if you like white fish
L'Cygna Tovah
I'm not sure I've ever had it; my dad hates fish, so we don't get it often, and never anything as fishy as gefilte fish
HIKIKOMORTIS
Now I want a sesame bagel with cream cheese, tomato, onion, and smoked salmon....
ArtIsArt
Sounds good!
ArtIsArt
I'd do poppyseed though.
HIKIKOMORTIS
I love either one, honestly
HIKIKOMORTIS
Just happen to be craving sesame atm
HIKIKOMORTIS
And the onion has to be sweet white onion, slivered paper thin
