It’s that time of year again! I’m covered in flour and jam; the house smells amazing, and holiday music is in the air! Sunset brings this celebration…. People, happy Purim!!! *GRINS*
During Purim, we celebrate how God used Esther and Mordecai to stop Haman’s plot to kill the Jewish people! You can read the whole amazing story in Esther. π I encourage you to do so! (And please read it straight from the bible….there are a lot of “versions” of the story that have waaaay too much added to them….)
Anyway, we’ve had a fun day here so far. I spent a while making hamentashen (special three pointed cookies – representing Haman’s hat! π )
Our final creation! π π ^^ I think the two most common fillings are lemon poppy seed and just jam. Buuut we always get creative! π (Last year, we did some with jelly beans and M&M’s XD) So here we have grape jam, chocolate peanut butter, hazelnut cream cheese (Baruch added sprinkles to a few), custard, and cream cheese caramel (made by Sis!)
We had an amazing supper! It was so good. π




Well people, go read Esther, make some cookies and enjoy Purim. π

We did this last year (mainly made the hat cookies π ) So fun!

Thank-you, Hattush ! When we were in Nazareth, there was a lovely ladies’ store, and the name of the store was SALLY. The food in Israel was the best I’ve eaten anywhere. π I love the name of your blog.

It is the most spectacular place on earth !

Hi Hattush ! It had been a dream of mine for years to visit Israel, and a friend and I went with a group of pilgrims, to visit the holy sights. There are many white doves flying around there. I love these gentle birds !
I enjoyed looking at the foods that you prepared for Purim.
Thanks for sharing. π€
