We Are Alive! April 14th 2022 Eating the Last of the Leaven

Next week begins the feast of unleavened bread, where we eat no leaven, nor have any in our house. We do this by cleaning really well, and eating or throwing out any food products with leaven in them. No matter how well we clean or prepare, we somehow always miss something, we find a box of crackers or breadcrumbs or something. I think there might be a parable there.

Today we are having our "last supper" of leavened bread. My wife used our last yeast packet to make buns and they turned out delicious. We just began using a wheat mill this year, so we have lots of freshly milled delicious unleavened bread to look forward to next week!

Tomorrow is the Exodus Remembrance, where we commemorate both the exodus from Egypt and the crucifixion of our Lord. The parallels between the two events is astounding.

I hope your week is going well. How was your Thursday?

You and I have that in common, we're not Jewish either! It's a joy to fulfill the words of the Father, the same words His Son Fulfilled perfectly. Our exodus remembrance is very much centered around the death, burial and resurrection of our Savior. We also fulfill the words of the Son "Do this in Remembrance of Me". It was a mind-blowing experience to realize what "THIS" he was talking about.

I admire your devotion to families and protecting children, especially in supporting @familyprotection. I'd love to hear you play the piano sometime too. :-)

It was a busy day but I think leaving no food behind is a great thing. I tend to think that I leave behind too much food sometimes. It happens more often when I go out to eat though.

I appreciate your commitment to following the rules so diligently. Not many are that committed. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for the compliment! I sort of thought I might be NOT following the rules, by not specifically thinking of one best memory. !LOLZ

My roommate keeps saying that our house is haunted.
But I've lived here for last 216 years, and haven't heard anything unusual.
