Hana—After hearing bits and pieces about your grandmothers, I’m really happy to read this fuller version. More, please!
Friends here have invited me to their seder. May I take copies for them and the other guests?
My contribution to the meal: some KP wine. I was able to find a KP St. Emilion (at kosherwines.com)! St. E is my favorite Bordeaux, so I’m really excited to be able to do this.
Please do! My father the wine maven always managed to find KP wine that wasn’t drek - not trivial in the 80s - but a St. Emilion is next level. More soon…
I’m of your father’s generation, but I too often feel “an odd proximity to the vanished past,” for me 1950’s Bensonhurst( some said “Gravesend” because we were on the border and it was a point of consideration contention), and the summers in the borsht Belt. I only met your paternal grandmother once, at your wedding, but she would have loved this piece. best wishes always, carole.

I’ll get some more, for your house and mine.
