Devin's Musings
Storytelling is a huge part of the Passover Seder. Not only do you hear the story of Exodus, but you also hear the stories of many rabbis who had many opinions about how to run a Passover Seder.
My extended family had some weird Passover traditions growing up and my favorite involved a raisin - three raisins to be exact. Each year, whoever was responsible for making the matzah balls would put a raisin in three of the matzah balls. When the soup was served, the people who found the raisin in one of their matzah balls had to tell a story.
This tradition was simply intended to invite our own stories to the table because a whole year might have passed since we all last connected. It was one big, ice-breaker because inevitably people arrived late even though the seder started on time.
What story would you share if you found a raisin in your matzah ball?
