April Showers

A Haiku:

April in Mo House
Seder, Hiking, and Zahav
Bring the May Flowers

Our Seder was incredible. We hosted 22 people for an alternative, locally focused Freedom Seder which was really well received by all who participated. Everyone loved the Hagaddah and the Shulchan Orech (10 hours in the kitchen?!?! I now have nothing but respect for my Mother...) and the energy of the prayers and songs was incredible.

Hiking in the Northeast was pretty far from rugged terrain, but it was fabulous to get outside on a beautiful day with a dozen friends, delicious matzah gorp (thanks again, Mom) and doggies who hate bicycles.

And Zahav is my obsession, so obviously I had a fantastic time at Happy Hour checking out Kevin Bacon - yes we saw Kevin Bacon :) And for the record, I totally beat Philadelphia Magazine by recognizing that the restaurant is clearly #1 in Philadelphia.

I am looking forward to a fantastic May in Mo House. We just had an extremely productive town hall meeting where our constituents expressed their wants/hates/suggestions for what we can do better, and I am excited to implement these changes. It goes to show you that you never know until you ask.

And on a final note - farewell to Adam and Rae. Hello to Alissa. Philadelphia is going through some seasonal changes, but thankfully my allergies have begun to go away.
