Uninspir(ed/ing) Shabbos Food: Acharei Mos-Kedoshim

Okay, I’m stuck. In a rut. No inspiration. What will we have for Shabbos? (yeah, I know it’s 1 p.m. and Shabbos is in only 6 hours)

UPDATE: Alright, it’s now 7:00 p.m. and I am changing this to list our FINAL Shabbos food items before shutting down for the next 25 hours!

Dinner?

Challah (Maggie Glezer’s Breadsmith Challah recipe)
Soup (didn’t bother making it because we have so much frozen) w/kneidlach
Mommy is making duck – I hope she saves the fat because I was just told that
Duck-fat roasted small potatoes is the most delicious thing to have on the side
Broccoli & potato kugel
Corn
Desserts

Lunch?

Turkey meatballs heated up w/s&s dipping sauce
Cholent
Slicey meats
Urgh; is everything meat??? Can we not have some veggies in this meal?
Okay, I’m happy bc Ted made Green beans
Desserts

Dessert(s)?

Yes, we have some!

Lemon cake – from a mix, with real lemon juice & icing sugar
Fudge brownie cookies – from a mix, with white-choco chips added!

Okay, off to put GZ to bed. Hopefully, I’ll update soon. Please forgive me, family. Please forgive me, world. Please forgive me, Hashem for giving your holy precious Shabbos – our 52nd in the last year – short shrift. I have been sick this week and only just feeling slightly better this morning.

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.
