Hello Friends! I wanted to share the special celebration of Passover with you. It’s a wonderful time to gather the family for a Seder (Seder customs include telling the story, discussing the story, drinking four cups of wine, eating matzah, partaking of symbolic foods placed on the Passover Seder Plate, and reclining in celebration of freedom. The Seder is performed in much the same way by Jews all over the world). My older sister Jaye is a wonderful cook and I’m the chosen one to dress the tables and buffet. Although it looks like a simple dinner party it takes days to prepare. All the hard work is very rewarding when you see everyone enjoying your efforts and telling stories of Passovers past. Enjoy our evening…xox Mindy 7 Market baskets!

We went for a natural, desert feeling , lots of succulents and mixtures of cremes, woods and greens. Votives wrapped in burlap. creme canvas chair covers by revelry and my sisters linens and napkins.
Coffee set up I adored! You can always find interesting pieces in your cabinets and they don’t have to match! This Jadeite does make a lovely set up. Thanks Jaye for a lovely delicious evening!
My sister made homemade haroset in a small mason jar for a parting gift. Haroset is one of the symbolic foods on the Passover Seder Plate. After reciting the blessings, and eating a matzah “sandwich” combining haroset and maror, the remainder is often eaten plain, spread on matzah. It is so delicious, apples, cinnamon, nuts…and we sneak and eat it throughout the seder. Many recipes on line.
Special Thanks to my Nephew Spencer Hersh for his wonderful pictures…
