Thankful Friday – Passover Edition

Hey all! Hope those of you who are celebrating are having a happy Passover. Here at Hotel 618 (our house) we were so happy to have been able to host wonderful family and friends, including but not limited to Bubby Sandy. Our sedarim went until around 2am, full of fun, divrei Torah, and plenty of laughs. Thank you to everyone for all of their hard work in making it possible, most notably Estee, and Chavi, the best -LER who has ever -LERed.

Earlier this week was April 24, 2024, the English anniversary of Mer’s passing – the 6th one. Thank you to those who reached out; I will share my thoughts on the blog when we hit the Hebrew anniversary in a few weeks as it is just too hard to do it twice. Certainly, Mer was missed this holiday as she always is, but was regularly on our minds and her name on our lips, when, e.g., we served rainbow cookies at the Passover meals, or when I sang the song of the Haggadah remembering how she used to sing them.

Anyway, here are our thankfuls!
