Comments on: Faux Seder, family style http://www.apartment2024.com/2006/04/13/faux-seder-family-style/ An old-fashioned personal blog, currently featuring a photo a day.

I’m also half jewish. One of our family jokes is my waspy aunt’s gift of a honey baked ham to our annual seder. She’s been doing it for years. No one knows if she’s just oblivious or if she’s a complete $%#$#. Either way, it sure is tasty. I completely understand. I’m also half jewish.

Although now that I think about it, it's a preservative technique, so as long as the people around you could handle the smell, it would probably be fine. Ellen, I'll probably bring most of it to Seth's bbq, that seems like a fairly smart plan.

Not unlike the St Pat's day at the Caf I was doling out the green deserts - AND the last of the orange sherbert. But I'm with you in that the spirit/community of the feast goes beyond the particulars. Am glad yours had plenty of that. Wow – ham at a Seder.

Maybe you could freeze some and bring it to the airport on May 22 and I'll take it home. (Yum!) Or not. Yum! Ham!
