Meal Plan Monday: 10 Shevat 5760

Last week was INCREDIBLE! I felt so free every day not having to think about the dreaded question: “what’s for supper?”

So let’s give it another go this week, shall we? As before, I will provide a skeleton meal plan for the week now, and flesh it out as I come up with the details:

Monday: Beef Stew with home-baked Ciabatta

Had to switch around the days because it turned out I was out last night at our shul’s gala dinner (whoopeee) and I didn’t want to miss BEEF STEW NIGHT. I didn’t have the fish fillets I’d planned for Tuesday night, but I did have some puff pastry squares that we hadn’t used for Shabbos desserts… so:

Monday: Creamy corn & potto soup, creamy salmon puff pastries, home-baked Ciabatta (mmm…)

Tuesday (Ted’s late day): Creamy corn & potato soup, pan-fried fish, plain rice and…?

Tuesday (Ted’s late day): Beef Stew with home-baked Rosemary Focaccia. Oy, was it nice having the beef stew AND the bread pre-made. All I had to do was toss the bread in the oven to bake and the stew on the burner to come to a boil.

Wednesday: Pressure cooker sausage risotto

Thursday: Vegan Vursday! Beanie burgers

Here goes…

What do we tell our kids about Chabad and “Yechi”?

She asks, in part, because she already knows how I feel. She already knows I’m bothered, though to her, it’s mostly about “liking” and “not liking.” I wish things were that simple. Our little neighbourhood in Israel has a significant Chabad presence, and Chabad conducts fairly significant outreach within the community. Which sounds nice until you realize that this is a religious neighbourhood, closed on Shabbos, where some huge percentage of people are shomer mitzvos. Sure, it’s mostly religious Zionist, and there are a range of observances, for sure, but we’re pretty much all religious here in some way or another. So at that point, this isn’t outreach but inreach . Convincing people who are religious to be… what? A lot of Chabad’s efforts here are focused o...
