Or when Sophia got to meet Burt Reynolds!
Dorothy: That’s it, I don’t want to hear another word.
Sophia: Oh, Cinderella is back from the ball and her three wicked step-sisters are jealous.
Dorothy: We are not jealous, we are angry. You left us sitting in jail.
Sophia: Hey, I sent over the bail money, you were out an hour later. I think that was just about the time I was nippling a giant shrimp out of Jerry Reed’s hand.
Dorothy: You’re making this while thing up just to rub it in. You have never met these people.
Sophia: Jealously is a very ugly thing Dorothy. And so are you in anything backless.
So yeah, embrace the golden bitter energy and eat those bitter herbs. Pick em up and dip them in the charoset. Then say…
“Blessed be You, Lord our God, King of the World, Who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us concerning eating bitter herbs.”

Don’t worry, the cheesecake is almost ready! But first, we need to wash our hands again.
While you do this, Dorothy will insist you do the traditional blessing…
"Blessed be You, Lord our God, King of the World, Who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us concerning the washing of the hands.”
Or could take some tips from the girls past blessings…
Blanche will insist you say her own blessing.
Blanche: Dear God, I know it’s been an awful long time since I’ve done this. You have given me a lot to be thankful for: my wonderful children, my health, a beautiful body, legs to die for. A face that is stunningly sexy and yet has the innocence of a child, with luscious lips…
Dorothy: He knows what you look like Blanche.
Blanche: Yes, you know what I look like, and I just wanted to say, good job!

The table is a mess. You’re stuffed with cheesecake. You’ve reclined so much you can barely move. That’s the point!
It’s been thousands of years of people telling this story year after year. And year after year, we come together with the people we love and are reminded of the gifts we are given: the gift of community, the gift of love, and the gift of life. No matter if it’s your immediate family or a chosen family like on The Golden Girls, the people at your Seder are family.
Take this golden spirit and apply it to your life in the next year. Remember that you have the confidence of Dorothy, the humble heart of Rose, the freedom of expression from Blanche and the audacity of Sophia.
