[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 252321, member: 77"] Well, this morning the sun is shining here in Jerusalem, and it feels really good. Winter has finally arrived after great worries about a drought year, and we have had a lot of rain, and more rain and cold are forecast for the end of the week. But yesterday and today are sunny and it feels good. I have taken a couple of days off from work. It is the Purim festival (a sort of Jewish mardi gras) this week, and today and tomorrow I will be in the kitchen, baking and baking and baking, and also cooking. On Wednesday my whole family are coming to me for a festive meal. I don't know where I will put everyone, but they all decided they were coming, and that is about 35 people (just my husband and me, children and children-in-law and grandchildren, plus girlfriends of the unmarried boys). I love cooking and baking, and I have my radio in my ears as I work, and it feels good. Work can wait for a couple of days! The reason they are all coming is for the special Purim food I make -- especially the first course which is vol-au-vents (I make them myself, but I buy the puff pastry frozen), filled with mushrooms and chicken livers. Yummy. I'm getting fatter just thinking about it. Hope everyone has a good meltdown-free day. Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
