For those of you who eat Gebrokts (matzah in liquid), we have a simple alternative to spending huge bucks for KP cold cereals. Pour some matzah farfel in a bowl. Add a ton of sugar or artificial sweetener (that way it tastes more like boxed, sweetened cereals), pour in the milk, and voila- one bowl Continue Reading »
Imagine our surprise when we found out that our backyard is a veritable gold mine of gastronomic delicasies. Yup, we’re talking about our yard of dandelions! We knew that some old folks make wine from them and that some folks put them in salad, but there is so much more to the story! Dandelions are Continue Reading »

Our fave Hamantaschen are by Mollie B. But, truth be told, we never met a Hamantasch that we didn’t like. Big ones, little ones, fruit filled, chocolate filled- you name it, we like them. We eat them for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. We eat them on Shabbes, we eat them during the week. In Continue Reading »
