In Anticipation of the Barley Harvest
by Judith Cohen
No one respects parsley.
Parsley is a joke told by Jewish children
at Pesach time.
Who eats parsley? We use it more as a garnish
than an herb.
Why do we eat parsley for Pesach?
Why parsley?
What is parsley?
Parsley is green.
It branches like a little tree.
It has little leaves.
Parsley is spring.
Parsley is anticipation.
It's the first thing we eat.
It doesn't have to be parsley, just a green herb.
But it's always parsley.
Except when papa chooses a scallion instead.
A green onion.
Special thanks, kudos, and much gratitude to the tireless Seder committee. In addition to our board members and volunteers, a special committee led by Susie Yure and Sherrill Kushner made our Women's Seder and Fundraiser an event to remember.
May everyone who put their heart and soul into this event continue to be blessed with unending strength and inspiration for the upcoming holiday!
