Sikkim is a step out of time and place…”to live in the present moment is a miracle. the miracle is to walk on the green earth in the present moment, to appreciate the peace and beauty that are available now” Thich Nhat Hanh
Go and feel the miracle….

Thanks for this post, Charlotte. I love the idea of preparation as a form of luxury and security – which it is, of course: hauling out the great big pot, braising a brisket, rolling out twenty-seven matzo balls, finding the seder plate and the haggadahs at last under Callie’s bed where I stored them last year…

They look quite good. I like the preparation, I love the term “mise en place” getting it all ready to put together. It is good to think of the Passing over…the urgency, the fear, and then the grace… bless you.
