Is Passover!!!!!
So Thursday is my normal shopping day. But it's been hard since I went back to work. Some weeks I get it done some weeks I put it off. So tonight I'm laying there exhausted saying to myself I don't really feel like shopping today maybe I'll just do it tomorrow.
Then I get a text from my DD at college she was eating her last 'bread' dinner. And I'm like OMG expletive!!
And it dawns on me Passover and the Seder is tomorrow!!! I HAVENT EVEN PLANNED THE SEDER!!!!
And I have to go to my DS's performance in 90 mins. too!
So I go shopping, to the FAR market because ours has nothing for Passover. I'm walking down the Passover aisle flinging ( literally flinging ) Passover stuff into my cart. Trying to remember which things they like and which they don't.
So now I've got 'stuff' for Passover ( hopefully enough ) but I have NOTHING planned, not one note, not one list nothing. And I have to work tomorrow.
A few years ago DS altered an excel meal planner into a Passover excel one sheet for the Seder and 1 sheet for the rest of the 8 days. I usually fill it out beginning of March
Oh and I don't have a shank bone yet! I told the kids I should have frozen the one from last year.
A tip I read from the internet Last year and I joked about because shank bones are often free of only like 50 cents. Haha jokes on me. I guess I'm spending lunchtime tomorrow in the grocery looking for a shank bone.
I can not belive I totally blew off Passover planning. It's usually the only 8 days I'm really organized all year! Where was my brain?
Well there's plenty of matzo and like 4 matzo meal cakes and like 4 boxes of salad. We'll survive.
Wish me luck.
