Conversations at the Grocery Store

Me: *passing by the Easter display*
Woman: Excuse me, when is Easter?
Me: I don't know.
Woman: What do you mean, how can you not know?
Me: I'm Jewish.
Woman: And?
Me: And so I don't care about Easter?
Woman: *huffs and walks away*

ETA: Given what I was wearing today, I wonder if she thought I worked there. Hmmm.

And now I'm very impressed by both of you.

I'm mostly non-observant during the rest of the year. I go nuts during some of the holidays.

Honestly, I wish I could do that. The few times I've tried I just felt like too much of a hypocrite. It's not remotely logical, but I feel like if I'm not going to really observe the holiday (kasher the kitchen and switch out the dishes and not go to work on yontif, etc) then there's no point to doing anything. Silly, I know.

I think my GF might kill me if I tried to rid the house of anything non-kosher for passover. and we don't have a second set of dishes. There's always the paper plate route.
