What is a Seder, you might ask?
A seder (literally 'order') is the large meal usually held with family and 
friends on the first two nights of Passover.  During the meal, the story 
of the Jewish exodus from Egypt is told with food props such as a sweet 
apple and nut mixture to symbolize the mortar used to for buillding, four 
cups of wine, and matzah.

Generally a relaxed, at times silly, meal which is sure to make exec a lot 
more interesting
