First we drank a glass of wine. Then we ate a bit of parsley. Then they started talking, and talking, and talking. The smell of the food from the kitchen is making me insane, but they don't bring it out!

Rabbi Bolton, thank you so much for this so very funny and yet so very serious story.

Here's another view. Were the wine and the matzah and the lettuce and the maror really all that bad? It depends on one's frame of mind. There is a midrash that the manna could taste like anything, yet the gluttonous Israelites rebelled (Parashat Behaalotecha). Knowing that any and all foods are the result of Hashem's providence should make all of them taste divine, so to speak.

This is such a funny story I will have to tell my students about it.
Thanks for the great laugh. I like the old stories the best most of the time.

Reb Nahman stories are really amazing.

And since we've swallowed the maror already, we might as well hold out one minute longer and get the feast...
You mean the Messiah? That is the hope...
