Vision Circumcision

  
      Visions of fudge, cookies and cake
         sugar-plums moist and plump when baked

      Sides of honey-dipped vanilla graham snackers
         What do I get? ~ A week of dry matzo crackers

ha! great title, gershon! i spent the morning baking passover brownies and "mock oatmeal" cookies made with farfel, both delicious, in addition to onion rolls made with matzoh meal. there are other things out there besides "dry matzo crackers!" (at least put a little butter on them...)

NOT A FUN THOUGHT OR OP! Hi Gershon, have I inadvertently written something in a comment to upset you, i cant think of anything unless you have just gone off my poetry. I know i'm slow answering my friends, but i seem to get nothing back from you. Hugs Jennifer

No, no. I just am not always so attentive or 'with it' these days. All my fault. ~ Gershon
