Hi Luella,

Sounds delicious to me BUT it also sounds verrrrrrrrrrry Israeli as well.

The only problem is that during Passover NO pita's unfortunately. :)

Shalom,

Peter

Bless your heart Peter.  I am not very familiar with Israeli customs, or Passover customs either.

My goodness, with Easter being so early in the States I lost track of Passover.  They are usually side by side.

Hugs,

Luella

Hi Luella,

Yes, you are right Passover and Easter normally are celebrated at almost the same time. This year cos of the leap year the Christian Easter came a month earlier then normal.

The Jewish holidays go according to our lunar calendar which is much more exact and the holidays come out almost at the same time every year.

Please visit my Passover thread and you'll get a bit of an idea what the holiday is all about.

The Israeli and Greek foods are very similar and that's not surprising since we are from the same general area.

Shalom,

Peter
