Shabbos Food!

Ted’s working today, so he did a LOT of the work last night.  I just can’t seem to get stuff done while there are kids around, which is a terrible thing because there are always kids around.  I’ll stick an asterisk next to everything that’s left for me to do!

Dinner (Meat)

  • Soup
  • * Challah
  • Onion Chickens (Ted seasoned the chicken overnight in mayonnaise)
  • * Easy oven egg rolls (Ted made the filling last night)
  • * Homemade farfel w/broccoli (if I can I did! figure out how to make homemade farfel!)
  • * Corn
  • Desserts

Lunch (Dairy)

  • * Challah
  • Blintz loaf (Ted made this last night when I wasn’t looking, I guess)
  • Honey mustard salmon (Ted made this last night)
  • * Israeli salad (tomato-cucumber – we are buying tomatoes again because they have a Canada sticker, though I suspect they are shipped here from greenhouses in BC, and between heating the greenhouse and shipping, are probably not much better than tomatoes from Spain or Peru or wherever) – ELISHEVA WILL MAKE IT ON SHABBOS – with luck!
  • Desserts

Desserts

  • * Easy Blueberry Puff Pastries
  • * one more dessert???  Maybe ginger cookies from a mix
  • * Prince William’s Royal Wedding Chocolate Biscuit Cake (made with Social Tea biscuits, which I believe are Not Exactly Right) – Ted made the cake but I have to ganache it today.

(the last was Ted’s special request – this from a man who, between the Scottish and Irish blood, has probably been under the boot of English royalty for close to a millennium)

Plus a lot of dish-washing…. plus, something smells absolutely FOUL in the fridge.  I really, really don’t want to know what it is!  But I suspect the grown-up thing is to root it out and get rid of it!

Are Jews an "underrepresented community" in children’s publishing?

I applied for a writing award yesterday. I'm not going to get it, but that's not what I wanted to share with you. Here's what I wanted to share. This box:   I stared at this box for a long, long time. And then I decided not to check it. Even though I believe people like me truly are underrepresented, we probably wouldn’t fit the definition in other people's minds. Why? Well, because we're European. Because we are white. Because as everybody knows, Jews control the media. (do we???) If anything, some people say, Jews are over -represented in publishing. And yet. Some definitions are careful not to include people like me. Like this random definition from the State of California which defines underrepresented for some very specific business purposes as: "an individual who self-identifies as Black, African American, Hispanic, Latino, Asian, Pacific Islander, Native American, Native Hawaiian, or Alaska Native, or who self-identi
