The Festival of Lights is once again upon us. When the Jews reclaimed their Holy Temple, they followed the tradition of the Menorah to be lit continuously. With only one vial of olive oil, the Menorah was re-lit with the expectation that it would only last one day. It lasted for eight days. It was a Miracle! And the Jews celebrated!
As I celebrate this wonderful holiday tonight (and the next eight nights), I would like to wish all of you a very Happy and Lovely Chanukkah!
Love,
Rose
One of the things that I love to do while traveling is to stop at the town’s local farm stand. We were in The Berkshires, Massachusetts recently to see the incredible Fall Foliage and we came across this farm stand that was right on the side of the road. We actually saw the vegetable garden right next to the home. These vegetables are organic as they come. No chemicals, fertilizers or hormones added.
I made roasted peppers and eggplant with a little bit of olive oil. What a lovely dish this turned out to be.
Please visit The Berkshires, Massachusetts. It was quaint and very beautiful. I can’t wait to go back.
Love,
Rose
