HADASSAH PRIMEtime Hosts Chocolate Seder
Approximately 30 women in their 50s and 60s from around Atlanta attended.
On April 6, the Hadassah PRIMEtime group of the Hadassah Greater Atlanta chapter held its third event — a Chocolate Seder! Approximately 30 women in their 50s and 60s from around Atlanta attended. The seder was super creative with chocolate milk for wine, graham crackers for matzah, a Hershey bar for shank bone, chocolate eggs for roasted egg, bitter chocolate for maror, banana for karpas, chocolate frosting with marshmallows for charoset, and chocolate syrup for salt water. This was a chocolate lover’s paradise.
The group sang “Take me out to the seder” to the tune of “Take me out to the ballgame,” answered seder-related trivia questions, found the hidden afikomen, and had a raffle of a lovely Passover-related gift basket. Everyone had a great time with lots of conversation and laughs!
Michele Weiner-Merbaum explains, “Our Hadassah members stretched out their hearts and hands at our chocolate seder table and together hoped that our chocolate matza will bring healing, joy, hope, comfort and renewal to those celebrating Pesach around the world.”
Simone Wilker, advocacy chair for the Southeastern Region of Hadassah says, “This year when antisemitism has reached new and terrifying heights, coming together for a seder is especially powerful and necessary. Even as Israel fights a war and faces new threats, we, at Hadassah, pray for peace.”
