Passover
Last night was the first night of Passover, and we held our seder. The kid ran it for the first time, though Dr. Skull was accused more than once of back-seat sedering. My SIL came down to celebrate with us. Uncle Charger had to travel out of town.

As you can see by the butter in the top picture, right next to the brisket, this was not an entirely kosher Seder.
Okay, I have to ask: what is the affliction part of "coffee cake of affliction"?
It's a family joke! When the kid was little, we used to make these cookies with a Kosher-for-Passover mix, and they were pretty awful, so we started calling them the cookies of affliction, since Passover is about how we were afflicted as slaves in Egypt. And the kid started asking for them that way: "Mama, can I please have a cookie of affliction?"
So now any dessert we make with KFP mix is called the X of affliction.
That's hilarious!
