We have gone back to our routine of day to day, after the holiday of Sukkot. So, I’m posting today since me n DH are going to be away and I won’t have a chance. More on that in a later post. Most of us, when celebrating a major holiday, have a tendency to overeat […]
I developed this recipe originally for Rosh Hashanah but honestly didn’t have a chance to post it. We have, thank G-d, been celebrating our grandson Lavi and Maor’s upcoming wedding in various ways, the latest was a beautiful and spiritual event, the separation of dough from challah. It was a ladies only get together and […]
Many years ago, my old friend Laurie gave me a ridiculously easy recipe for dark meat turkey roll – it was so long ago, in fact, that it was before you could find turkey rolled in a netting and you did it yourself, taking boneless skinless turkey thighs, rolling them and putting in cheesecloth bags […]
So it’s been a while since I’ve posted. DH and I have been traveling quite a bit, first on our vacation and then bravely with 4 grandsons in crazy hot weather. Every time we stepped into the apartment rental we all said, “AAAAHHHHH” when the air conditioning hit. But they were more fun than a […]

It’s plum season with a vengeance here, and I was thinking of making a plum kuchen like my grandma used to make but just wasn’t in the mood for a yeast cake. So I scrolled hither and yon and up popped (like a kajillion times) the NYT Marian Burros’ recipe. I liked it more or […]
Biscoff/Lotus Cookies or Graham Crackers work wonderfully in this recipe and 5 ingredients in total! As you know, I’m always trying to improve the blog to make things clearer and easier for my people. I am really pleased to now include a recipe card (thanks as always to my son Yehuda, my IT guy for […]
As always, when I get a chance to spend time with my buddy Paulette, I get new and wonderful ideas from her kitchen. I absolutely took liberties with the recipe she served us, but since ours is a true love 😉 I know she’ll forgive me. The basic here is a marinade of chicken breast, […]
I know what you’re thinking…how can this dish be savory if you’re using two kinds of honey? Excellent question! It’s really quite simple. Silan, or date honey has a very deep umami and savory note to it, not really terribly sweet at all, and when you add the sauteed onions to this and the salt, […]
