Shabbos Menu: P’ Metzora (Apr 4-5)

I cannot believe that Pesach is almost here!  Usually people get all uptight, but I’m excited to be on vacation.  No work for 8 whole days.  I have no idea what we’ll be doing for Chol Hamoed yet, but I’m still excited.  I’ve been so busy at work that I can’t even seem to find the time to plan a few simple day trips.  What’s a gal to do?

This Shabbos we’re so lucky to have my sister over.  I already warned her about my simple menu and she’s on board anyway.  Guess she can’t wait to spend some quality time with her nephews.

Here’s what we’re having:

Friday night:

• Chicken soup (freezer) with matza balls
• Stuffed cabbage (sent from Mom)
• Oven baked rice
• Sweet potatoes

Shabbos lunch:

• Gefilte fish (maybe- could only find the KLP kind)
• Cholent
• Kishka
• Broccoli kugel
• Bourekas (store-bought)

I consider this a pretty special menu.  On it are things I don’t usually make, but somehow found the energy for on Thursday night.

Wow, as I’m typing this post I am yearning for Shabbos to come already!  You know that peace of mind you have the second after you light Shabbos candles?  That’s what I am most looking forward to!

Until next time,
Shaindy
