Dear Friends,
So Pesach is trucking along with family and friends. If the four cups of wine, (fifth for Eliyahu), three Matzos and dipping twice is all about numbers, then here is our Pesach numbers:
- 3 News videos feature Levi Lazaroff at the Blessing of the Sun: Houston Chronicle, KHOU, Jewish Herald Voice (full news report here).
- 75 guests at our home for
- the two seders ate close to
- 18 pounds of handmade shmura matzah and
- drank up four cases of wine.
- 345 guests collectivley participated in
- the four Houston area seders led by Chabad
- (including 20 at the all new Chabad of Pearland!)
- I will not tire you with the details of the numbers of
- hundreds of pounds of eggs, potatoes, chicken, diapers and more consumed, but, allow me to say
- it was alot!
- Oh yeah, and our kids loved playing with the kids of Chanie's visiting sister Esti and husband Shnuer Greenberg of Chabad Commerce, MI.
Anyhow, we are looking forward to enjoying our last days of Pesach at home with more (Lazaroff side) family and friends. You are more than welcome to join us and for services (including tonight all night study 12 am and YIZKOR Thursday at 11:15 am) at Chabad on Fondren. Schedule here.
