No, this is not a typo! You are using chocolate chips in two different ways in this recipe. And I’ve got a secret shhh 🤐 🤫. It’s reasonable to wonder how I get taste testers for new Passover recipes. People tend to look at you a little horrified (not on Passover proper when they look […]
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, […]

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 […]
