one last matzah cover

Posted by Picasa

all my matzah covers are gone


that's it for now
onto actually cleaning for pesach
Posted by Picasa

pesach/passover preparation


so far this year,
my pesach preparation has consisted of:
sewing 25 matzah covers and 15 afikoman bags
and selling them at 3 pre-passover Judaica fairs
and to 3 Judaica stores

it's nice to now that there will be little pieces of me at so many family seders this year

decoupage stools i shlepped on the plane for the grandkids

you should have seen me carrying 5 packages onto the plane in order to bring all the stuff i made/bought for my family in israel
i looked pretty ridiculous
beside the 3 stools, i also shlepped heavy knotted fringe fleece blankets that i made
hallel and kaveh call the stools their " little tables"
they're made with about ten layers of mod podge and Future floor polish
hopefully that will make them pretty durable
hallel and i had lots of fun with the crafts supplies i brought:
rubber stamps and pads
she wondered why i brought so many heart-themed items
they were part of Target's Valentine's Day Sale

fun with yehuda avner/shabbat with shani and elan

i spent the first day of my trip to israel in beer sheva with my daughter, tamar, her husband, david, and their two-year-old son, yehuda avner

it's always great to spend time with them

we all went to bet el for shabbat to the home of my daughter shani and her husband elan
my son, yaakov, joined us
it was a lovely shabbat

good company
good food
beautiful surroundings
unfortunately, no pictures
