2015 in review

Great first year! Can’t wait to see what 2016 will bring.  Thank you for your continued support.  Wishing everyone a happy and healthy New Year!

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2015 annual report for this blog.

 

Here’s an excerpt:

A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 1,100 times in 2015. If it were a cable car, it would take about 18 trips to carry that many people.

Le Beignets bonds my family all over the world from Israel, France, and the United States.  Today marks the first night of Chanukah so I’m sure, like my mother and I, my grandmother, aunts, and cousins are cooking this traditional (and sentimental) Moroccan dessert.

Thanksgiving Treat: Butternut Squash Soup

FullSizeRender-10

Butternut squash soup is one of my favorite “cold-weather” soups.  Thanksgiving is a good excuse to have this delicious treat.

The following recipe is dairy, however condensed coconut milk can be used as a replacement for the heavy cream in the recipe.  For those Kosher people out there enjoy this soup as an appetizer for Shabbat, Thanksgiving, or  a meal for a regular weekday!
