1. It's a zeder (Zoom seder).
2. Everybody's video worked but mine.
I have no idea why that happened. My Zoom was fine the day before. We tried using different browsers, different invites, even different computers - I tried on both of mine. No matter what, Zoom said my video was working, but my camera light didn't turn on and I appeared as an audio-only black square. Very frustrating.
On the plus side, I really leveled up my cooking skills. I made
matzah,
matzah balls from my matzah,
crisp-skinned braised duck with root vegetables,
huevos haminados, and improvised charoset from what I had (pistachios, apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, red wine).
Everything came out good, and the duck and charoset came out GREAT. A+, will definitely make again.
You can see pics on Instagram.Next year in Jerusalem. Or better yet, in person.
