So my seder last night went really well. People liked my Haggadah with agnostic gender neutral English blessings,("Let us bless the source of life which ..."), the bit about the hand of god and the finger of god, and "When We Were Robots in Egypt". There was good amount of discussion, enough that people got their questions asked, but not so much that we got really off track.

The food turned out well too -- the best thing was the matzo ball soup, which I made really good by boiling some onions,carrots, celery and chicken pieces in the stock before adding the matzo balls. I also made a fritata with some of caramelized onions, Kale and Parmesan, and baked chicken pieces. The guests brought a salad and some lentils. For desert we had ice cream.

People really liked eating the parsley dipped in salt water, so now I don't have much parsley leftover, which is good. I do have big chunk of horseradish root that I'm not sure what to do with.

If you attended a seder last night I'd love to hear about it.
