There is an old pessach song that we sing in the seder, it basically suggests how you should feel around this time of year:
“Simcha raba, simcha raba” – Great joy, great joy
“Aviv hegia'” – Spring has arrived
“Pessach ba!” – Passover came!
Stop and photograph the flowers! I took these pictures, while we were strolling around our neighborhood (Mid-Whilshire) this afternoon.
There are so many ways to make haroset but this one is my favorite. It’s not too sweet like other haroset recipes . I wish you a colorful and beautiful holiday.
