Shabbat shalom! Pesach Sameach and Happy Passover! Lots of events happening in the next week: Celebrate the end of Passover with a Mimouna Celebration, the Fort Collins Jewish Festival, a presentation of SIPP projects, the rescheduled Boulder Jewish Festival Volunteer Party, and the annual Yom HaShoah commemoration. And that just covers through Wednesday.
If you still need inspiration or ideas for seders, the Seudat Moshiach or other Passover activities (recipes and wine recommendations), here is a link to our Passover coverage.
Meanwhile, enjoy our spring, and here are this week’s posts:
