Seder 2011
Things to buy contains things we need and do not have yet. Things to bring is the section to put stuff you want to bring. Feel free to move something from things to buy to things to bring and put your name next to it so we know someone has that. You can also add something not already on the list--this can be ingredients, toys, cooked dishes, treats for Lola, or anything else you think up. Things to cook is a good place to write suggestions for dinner.
It'd be really nice if you add your name under Peeps if you are planning on attending, so we have an idea of how big to make dinner.
No dress code, yarmulke encouraged.

Things to Read
Margin Notes and Other Commentary on the Things to Read
Page 24 of the velveteenrabbi Haggadah has "Arov" translated as "insect swarms". This is clearly too similar to Locusts. God would never have made the mistake of creating two similar plagues. That would be like wearing clashing colors to a fashion show. Therefore I propose that "Arov" be retranslated as "Horde of Dragons" as that fits with the theme of both of the common translations, "swarm" and "beasts".
All references to "lamb shank" shall be henceforth stricken from the record and replaced with "yam shank". It's like a makeshift prison weapon made out of sweet potato.
Eliyahu Hanavi (Elijah the Prophet) may alternately be called Eliyahu Anavim (Elijah the Grapes).
The optional sixth, seventh, and eighth cups of wine that the book forgot to mention are not actually optional. Only godless heathens leave them out of this most sacred ceremony.
"The Haroset Song" on page 33 is not an actual Passover song. They just made that one up.
