My cousin Debbie (married to my cuz Eman), is one of those relatives you pray for. I know many people say you can’t choose your relatives, thank G-d you can choose your friends? Well I’d have chosen Debs every time. She and I have remained very close despite living far apart. Not long ago, DH […]
These cream scones are astonishingly light on the inside and crispy on the outside. They come together in minutes without having to cut butter into them since the cream replaces the addition of butter and milk which makes them incredibly fast to prepare. A marvelous addition to your breakfast or brunch and also wonderful as […]
Our son Dov joined us for dinner and I wanted to spoil him with a nice home cooked meal so I decided to make lasagna amongst other things. Let me preface this by saying that the tomato sauce is one that you can use in any recipe requiring tomato sauce, not just this one. It’s […]
The texture of this cake is very tender and luscious. It practically melts in your mouth. My DIL Ayelet was over for Shabbat with Netanel and Bnaya and she looked at me and said, I really hope you’re gonna post this recipe this week cuz I wanna make it myself! So you know it was […]

On our travels, we come across different types of cuisine which give me ideas of new things to try and play around with. These lettuce wraps are one such idea. When in Florida, there’s a restaurant we enjoy called 26 Tapas that has myriad appetizers and Peruvian cuisine. DH and I tried the lettuce wraps […]
In Israel, these are supremely popular and best known as “Abadi Middle Eastern Cookies”, the brand name that supposedly originally made them. They are not sweet nor are they meant to be. They are an addictive savory nosh and they are meant to be crispy through and through. If you don’t bake them long enough […]
I was very excited to see that my organic produce guy got fresh ears of corn on his list of products since I’m a big fan. There’s nothing so delicious as a fresh ear of corn, it’s so sweet and so easy to prepare. I just pop them in the microwave and zap ’em for […]
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 […]
