Passover Seder!

Who knew a 5lb piece of meat would be, like, 85 times too large for our 2-person household?

That's right, I totally forgot to analyze the serving size of the multiple braised brisket recipes I researched online and asked the butcher for a hunk o' beef 17times too large. Whoops! Hey, give me a break. It was my first attempt at making a traditional (ish) Passover Seder meal!

On the menu:
Braised Brisket with Caramelized Onions and Stewed Apricots

Latkes with Yummy Applesauce
((Uh...ok, they were actually Rosti...swedish potato pancakes from Ikea))

Steamed Whole Artichokes with Lemon Butter Dip

We're looking forward to a traditional Easter dinner @ Michele's on Sunday! A real honey-baked ham from the real Honey Baked Ham store! Dude. We're eating well this week.
