The theme of our Family Dinner this week was "The 3 Ps: Purim, Pi, and Patrick." Purim was March 13-14, and celebrates God saving the Jewish people from Haman in the Persian Empire. While the Purim story is read or told from the Book of Esther, each time Haman's name is spoken, tradition has it that everyone makes noise or does something to "obliterate" Haman's name from the record. We chose to shoot toy guns at Haman! Dinner was Irish Stew for St. Patty's Day and dessert was.... Pie! Check out the
Pi Day flag. By the way, the pies came from a newly discovered Dutch Bakery down on Fillmore:
Boonzaaijer's Dutch Bakery. The two pies and the Challah bread were great. Thanks for the tip from our Life Group at church.
