In Israel, for some reason unbeknownst to me, you can buy turkey breast which is boneless but it’s also skinless. I’ve hunted down the kind with skin on, but only have found it as part of a whole turkey, dunno why. So, with this as a given, I adjusted myself to the trick of cooking […]
I was preparing for Shabbat and was really in the mood for a cookie not so much cake. Ya know when you get the craving for something crunchy? But I wanted a cookie that was really fabulous, something a little special. Okay, I know it’s a pain to roll out dough but for these I […]
We were at my SIL and BIL’s house, Yo & Len for a Shabbat recently and were relaxing and enjoying each other’s company (missed having Stu & Suzy with us but next time) and I always wait to see what new ideas Yo comes up with. She had a few things I particularly enjoyed but […]
Not long ago, we were invited for a Shabbat meal to my SIL Diane and bro Avi and in addition to the pleasure of their company, Diane whipped up a something thatt particularly wowed me – this fabulous red cabbage salad. It had an amazing dressing (crazy simple, it turns out) and was crunchy and […]

Okay, this recipe is a piece of my childhood. DH and I grew up in the same neighborhood (and yes, when we were dating we had to skulk around so we wouldn’t be a source of entertainment to the wags of the ‘hood) and due to this, share many food and other memories. This is […]
Got about 25 or so minutes to make dinner? This is perfect and super delish to boot. I used skinless, boneless chicken thighs to prepare this dish and it was truly fabulous. If you wish to use regular bone in, skin on chicken, I will give you (below) the cook time (longer than skinless, boneless, […]
A lot has happened since last I posted, the holiday of Succot has passed, I had a birthday and last but most definitely not least, our living hostages have come home. We thank G-d for many things, generally on a personal level – health and happiness, family and livelihood but my tiny beloved country loves […]
