We were overseas, DH and I, and we were served a large array of salads and then lo and behold, the server plunked (elegantly) a dish of deviled eggs in front of us and the entire table fell upon them as one, devouring them and literally nary one egg was left. I hadn’t had a […]
I have another recipe on the blog for cheesecake, which for me is the traditional baked cheesecake Cheesecake for Dorie which I particularly love and is easy to put together but I had a gathering of the kids and grandkids and wanted something super fast that didn’t need baking but was also delicious. I decided […]
There are few things that I enjoy as much as dabbling in bread dough of various and sundry kinds. It both relaxes me and of course, tastes ever so much better than store bought and also gives you a kind of satisfaction that you have produced the staff of life. This is a bread that’s […]

Due to my momma still not being back to herself 100%, my blogging has been a bit sketchy, so I am going to post closer together than I normally do. Taking it one day at a time. Passover is nearly upon us and while I doubt I’ll be able to give you a full Seder […]
As I’ve mentioned previously, my son Netanel, the youngest of my kids, likes to play around in the kitchen as much as I do. He and his wife Ayelet are very into having all sorts and sundry salads (or salatim as they are called in Israel) to grace the Shabbat table and every so often […]
