Sure, Caesar and Greek are great, but there’s a world of dairy salads out there that are even better. Pizza, French onion soup, and a great dairy salad. It’s the perfect Thursday night dinner. And if you’re serving more dairy dinners than usual over the week of Chanukah, you’ll want a range of salads to…
More Party Activities! Make a Paint Pottery Studio At Home
Does your family love pottery painting? It makes a great party activity too! My kids absolutely love a visit to the painting pottery studio (something that is usually saved for Chol Hamoed). They really take it seriously and quietly paint for–get this–at least 3 hours! They’re very perfectionistic about it and it’s literally probably the…
Warm Mushrooms with Cheese Salad
If I knew this restaurant salad was so easy to recreate, I wouldn’t have waited so long to enjoy it again! Years ago, I ordered a salad at one Miami restaurant. This is what I remember: it had these hot, oozing cheese-stuffed mushrooms that were so good; every bite was delicious. But there were a…
That Famous Coconut Crunch Cake Just Got Way Better
An incredible, moist, coconut-y cake is paired with the famous coconut crunch topping. The only question is…why did it take so long for this match to come about? One Friday night in the summer of 2005, I walked with my husband and in-laws to visit a neighbor. There were a lot of people there and…

Would You Love Just One Fresh, Hot, Soft Cookie?
Did you know that you can make a chocolate chip cookie in the microwave? My children are the ones who taught me this cookie hack. My freezer is usually stocked with chocolate chip cookie dough. I buy the Nana Rachel’s box, although some of you might keep your own dough in the freezer like Renee…
You Don’t Need a Handyman to Hang These Modern-Looking Hooks
You can simply stick these modern hooks on the wall. You need some hooks. Whether it be inside the coat closet for the kid’s sweatshirts or a tote bag (or those masks!), or inside your own closet for some belts (or the clothing you don’t want to hang up right away), they’re useful in many…

I Never Thought a Beets Dish Could Be So Popular
Hot Beets and Goat Cheese takes a few minutes to make. It’s that dish that you can make when there’s really no time to make anything. One motzei Shabbat last year, my extended family had a melavah malkah get together. I don’t remember the occasion, perhaps it was someone’s birthday. Everyone had to bring one…
