We celebrate Passover in our house, a scaled-down Messianic version. One of the table settings is a dish called Mortar, made of applecause, coconut shavings, nuts, and grape juice (we often do chokecherry now). I received a bag of apples and decided to turn them into apple sauce this morning. The number of apples is slightly too big for the regular soup pot, not big enough for the stew pot! Go figure. . . I'll boil down whats there to add the remaining 3 or 4 apples. We'll definitely have applesauce for passover this year!!! There's actually a lamb roast in the freezer too for a change! Our growing season however, is starting so slow, not sure if we'll have much available for the bitter herbs salad fixings. . . one year, our tiny wild salad haul barely fit into my condiment bowls! Ashley took some artful photos of them that I've used for fabric art a couple times. The only ingredient missing from our mortar this year is coconut shavings. We'll see if I can pick up a small bag before Passover or not. With Passover closer to the end of April this year, everything I'm doing today will join the roast in the freezer, and maybe, just maybe, enough will be growing wild by then to have a decent bitter herbs salad.

EDIT: I wanted the actual date as I realized I was looking at generic info on dates, when I discovered the info I'd originally gone off of, was from a few years earlier. Resurrection Sunday is April 9th this year!!! We might be stuck with token bowls again!
