Life is interesting.

Seing as there are jewish residents at your work, you are going to HAVE to have a lot of practice runs before next year, you wouldnt want to offer them not quite right passover goodies now would you.

Ed, a small, but significant point. If the residents he would offer his goodies to don't keep Kosher there would be no problem. If they keep Kosher, whether religious or not, in good faith they would have to refuse his gifts. Keeping Kosher also means that any food they eat must come from a kitchen, store or restaurant that is obeying the rules and laws of keeping Kosher. Compound that with the fact that for the week of Passover the very observant use dishes, flatware and posts and pans that are used only for that week, yearly. If they are cultural Jews than all bets are off on food source.

ok, well perhaps not then, its a good job i never professed to be proffesional professor of what to proffer at passover. Thanks for setting me straight though Richard.

Almost forgot I had taken a pic of my modest little Gentiles Passover dinner....It wasn't too bad actually. A little Matzoh ball soup, some Gefilte fish,and some Grape juice(can't drink at work).
