Just dropped in for a few look-sees, about what everyone is doing today...I am in the middle of a big mess....radical house cleaning always looks like a big mess, until it all gets straightened out....so will not be here for very long...must back to house cleaning...
Just wanted to wish one and all a solemn and thoughtful Good Friday, if you celebrate it...
Palo, my very best girlfriend back in Chicago was Jewish...one time when I stayed overnite at her house, she made me matzo brie in the morning...do you know what that is? You take several 'egg and onion' Mazo crackers, soak them in warm water, until they get all puffy...then squeeze all the water out, and throw in a few beaten eggs....then make the resulting mixture into patties, like potato pancakes, and fry them up till they are brown and crispy...serve with sour cream and butter...YUM-YUM....
It was always easy to get those matzo crackers when I lived in Chicago, as they have a large Jewish population there, but when I moved to North Carolina, I could not find Matzo Crackers....my mother used to send me boxes of egg and onion matzos in the mail...or anyone who visited me there, would always bring me boxes of matzos from Chicago...
Even here in Washington state, its hard to find egg and onion mazto crackers....there is one store, which sells them, tho, and my hubby went over and bought three boxes of them so we could have mazto brie for breakfast....and we did...and that is my 'egg and onion' matzo story...
Again, may all on this thread, have a dear Good Friday...
