Guess what arrived in the mail while I was away? If you guessed a Jury Summons, you’d be right…but I’m much more excited about Arthur Schwartz’s Jewish Home Cooking. My aunt Debbie makes delicious Jewish meals, but since we don’t get to see my dad’s side of the family very often, I decided it was high time I learned how to make my own latkes. 

Some other dishes I’m excited to learn how to make: 

– Potato Kugel

– Borscht

– Matzo Ball Soup (I love this so much that I’m intimidated to try making it myself)

I might skip the P’tcha (jellied calf’s feet with garlic) and the gefilte fish, but you never know…I’ve been pretty adventurous lately.
