I’m finished planning my menu for Rosh Hashanah. We do a lot of simanim, or “symbols,” (see this post about specifically what we use). I tend to leave a lot of these whole and recognizable, but this year, I’m branching out. Here’s my plan, including links to the recipes: Challah (and honey, of course!) Sauteed swiss …

I make my menu with a lot of flexibility. My seders are both the same (it’s just my family this year, and by the time the second seder starts beginning around 9:30pm or so!), I can’t imagine there will be too much eating from the littler people. Especially since we only have chicken legs and …

My menu is done. This year is a little strange since we’re in a pop up sukkah in another country, and with just a few guests – and those are all family! These holidays are another set of three days outside of Israel. We should have good news and some upheaval sometime here, which makes …

I don’t usually use a slow cooker in the summer, and it’s good to have a list of options handy to help me plan. salads / spreads (like roasted eggplant, hummus, pepper, carrots olive tapenade, tomato dip, zhug) veggie tray (with dips?) sunflower seed …

This Passover, we are outside a big frum community – and outside our home country. We don’t have guests coming on Yom Tov, although there will likely be some other folks joining us for another meal or two. I ordered some Pesach food from the US, and some I’m making from scratch. We have only …

With Shabbat and Purim squished together this year, I’m been making things for both days. Here’s our plan!

Noodle kugel Beer BBQ chicken (crockpot, using my homemade BBQ sauce), without the coleslaw here, though. Brownies and …
