Ahh brownies. They are one of the most basic food groups in life. I first posted this in 2019 and have updated and revamped the post both for clarity and streamlining purposes. Onward!And wars you say? Yes, I keep expecting people to pop up in chain mail with swords in hand and I promise you, […]
Nadine is a dear friend who works in our office and from time to time, she and I (and others as well) bring in leftover goodies (or occasionally fresh baked specifically for the office people) to nosh on. The other day I spied a rather fluffy looking cake in the kitchen and went hmmmm. So […]
As I’ve previously mentioned, I have been reviewing my older posts (this is from 2018) and updating them. This is an oldie but one of my more popular salads in my recipe rotation.

I’m feeling a bit loopy between the running back and forth to the shelter (at least I got a great night’s sleep last night thank G-d) and on top of that a tooth extraction and antibiotics. Am I whining a bit ?, yeah, I guess. But we carry on. Despite this small kvetch for sympathy, […]
As we get ever closer to Passover, I tend to work on recipes to ease prep and prefer the simpler ones, both for myself and for you. We are still in the middle of a war and it’s impossible to know what the holiday will be like but G-d willing, we a) hope it will […]
