[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 686047, member: 1963"] First of all, Happy Pesach (Passover) to those who celebrate. I'm a non-believer, but my family celebrates, so will be off for the Seder at my mother's later this afternoon. My nephew is in from Taiwan, and as senior (only) Jewish male in the family, will be leading the Seder. He wants to do the whole service, which means 2 hours of "religious stuff" before we do anything other than nibble on foods that are representative of different parts of the Passover story, and drink wine at specific points. I have my trusty bottle of Kosher for Passover grape juice. As I hate Jewish wine. It's very sweet and VERY high in alcohol. You're supposed to drink 4 glasses of the stuff. First of all, if I didn't puke, I'd get a migraine. Second of all, I'd be VERY drunk. My family sips from their glasses instead of draining them, but the stuff is still nasty. I'm looking forward to seeing my nephew, not looking forward to seeing his mother (my sister who's been avoiding me.) and not looking forward to all the religious gobbledygook. [/QUOTE]
