Food Joke

Seder Pickup Lines Let`s make this night really different from all others nights. What will you do to me for two zuzim? What`s a girl like you doing at a seder like this? I like my matzo thin, like my women. Maybe when Elijah comes, we can make it a threesome. I hear that horseradish is an aphrodisiac. After four cups of wine, you look like Cindy Crawford. Darling, on this night we are supposed to recline, so let`s get to it. I bet I could make you sing Dayenu! Did that just say we were in bondage? I could never Pass you Over. We were strangers (with emphasis on "were") You`re a 10 in my hagadah. I`m going to have to search you for chometz. How`s about we go re-live the "Darkness" plague up in my room. I`m like one of the four sons; let me show you how wicked I can be.
