Make ahead, stores amazingly. Reduce the sugar and add extra matzoh.

I make it for the Seder. There is never any left over.

OP again - I do sufganiyot for chanukkah too - I think it's a fabulous idea to create more reasons to deep fry throughout the year! But I will likely stick with the apple cake. Maybe a honey cake too. (PP - on chanukkah it's the tradition to have lots of fried foods, hence the donuts)

I think I can handle this. I do have limited oven space, but I can do the brisket in the slow cooker, leaving one oven shelf for veggies and kugel, and the other for chicken. Salad can get made during the day. Perhaps soup.

Sufganyiot! Delicious. But we do them only on Chanukah

Thanks, this is interesting.

The WaPo Food section had a good looking apple cake recipe today.

Which meal are you hosting? Lunches or dinner? Kol nude dinner or break fast ?

The Holidays feature nude dinners? I need my Jewish friends to invite me over.

Keep Kol Nidre dinner short and sweet. People need to get to shul Whatever you make, make sure it's low sodium. Your menu sounds lovely. Add a salad and an apple cake and you're done.
