do you cook, or not have a kitchen? I melted some cheese on matzah yesterday, which was good. And butter and sugar on matzah is always good. I dunno, I always think it's going to be hard to keep passover, but then it flies by. Then again, freshman and sophomore year--when all I had was the school cafeteria--it was a challenge, and I did probably break it if you look at every ingredient I had.

What seems ridiculous to me is the explosion of pasadic foods; bagel mixes, taco mixes, etc. Umm, if the point is to eat what we ate escaping Egypt, and now we're using modern technology to make non-passover foods kosher for passover? It doesn't make much sense.

The NYT had a couple interesting articles on Passover recently--can't seem to find them now, otherwise I'd send you the link. One of them was discussing how passover dietary laws are actually being relaxed among orthodox rebbes, and also about the explosion of passover food options.
