This is why we never gave her a bat mitzvah.
Oh, but does she want 8 Hanukkah presents every year? You bet she does.
Clearly she inherited the multi-generation Indiana family food gene from her non-Jewish mother. Either that, or this is not my daughter. Should I go on Maury?
I’m not even going to try with the gefilte fish. I don’t need the tsouris.
And I’ll tell you one thing- she isn’t going looking for an afikomen come Passover.
Non-Jews: it’s probably best to just ignore my rant. Thank you.
EDIT: Hmm. Guess people here aren’t matzo fans either. Oh well.
Plain matzo? Not at all. Egg and onion? I could eat a whole box.
Also, that matzo-brie sounds amazing. When I was a kid, we used to eat it with “vegetarian chopped liver,” which was made from green beans, eggs, walnuts and some other stuff all chopped up in a food processor. I’ve never had actual chopped liver, so I don’t know how it compares, but I can taste it now. It was really good. And I don’t even like green beans or walnuts.
Edit: Found a recipe. It also has onions, forgot about that.

Hah! Funny you bring up chopped liver. That was one of the only things my parents could get me to eat on matzah until I found out what it was…then I was piiiissed at them for withholding that vital information. What a dumb kid I must have been. Your veggie version sounds excellent!
I edited with a recipe I found while you were replying if you ever want to make it. We never did the grated eggs thing though, we just put all the eggs into the food processors.
Hell yeah, thanks! I’ll definitely give that a try.
