Daily Life Stuff:
I'm making bread again -- Tassajara with oats and flax seeds today.

I've decided to clean out the inside of my dollhouse. I have this huge dollhouse -- its a 3 story Victorian that a grown-up friend and I put together from a kit when I was about 16. I used to collect minis -- I have all kinds of tiny things. However, I'm currently against owning too much stuff. So the plan is to take the minis out to the dollhouse, find homes for the things I want to keep (I currently have one shelf for minis, and a fair bit of clutter on my computer desk -- mostly pigs and Daleks) and put the things I don't want to keep in the charity pile in the spare room. Then I can move the dollhouse out and replace it with a bookshelf. (Maybe. I hope so anyways because books don't count as stuff/clutter and I need more shelf-space.)

On the projects note I've finally started to short out all the recipes. Oh and I've done an bit of sewing even if it is only mending. The undead jeans ride again!

Books:
I've love some recommendations for books about Jewish people that don't feature the holocaust.

Also why do Quakers seem to be disproportionately represented in Science Fiction about religious people?

Today I've spent all morning cooking. I've made eggplant Parmesan for dinner tonight. I also making apple butter. Our neighbor went up to Sonoma last weekend and came back with a huge bagful of apples for us. So I'm using those for the apple butter. I've never made it before but it mostly involves cooking the apples for a very long time.

So passover is coming up. I'm excited. I've been invited to two Seders after three years of missing them.

However I'm a bit worried about what I will pack for lunch. I mostly take sandwiches at the moment. And when I don't I generally take some other baked goods. So if you have suggestions for veggie, non-grain stuff that can be eaten cold, that would be very helpful.

Also if you celebrate passover and you want to tell me about what you traditionally eat, or what you are planing to eat this year I would enjoy hearing about it.
