It’s been some time since I posted a recipe here on MYV and for good reason. Ellie and I closed on a condo a few weeks ago and we’re getting ready to move (don’t worry, just 2 blocks away). So needless to say, I’ve been a little preoccupied. BUT, since the Super Bowl is THIS … [Read more…]
Well, we are about a week away from the Super Bowl. Is there any food more associated with watching football than chicken wings? But how do you get them crispy without making a mess or spending a lot of time? Generally wings get their crispiness from frying either unadorned for crispy skin or with some … [Read more…]
Tu BiShvat, the Jewish new year for trees, a Hebrew Arbor Day of sorts, is approaching. One of the customs for Tu BiShvat is to eat foods from the Sheva Minim, the seven special species of agricultural products of Israel.

The recipe calls … [Read more…]

This year, I have a slightly non-traditional recipe for Hanukkah, my Olive Oil Persimmon Cake. Before this recipe came together, of course I … [Read more…]
I love donuts! Lately I have been trying to watch what what I eat, but I love donuts. And what is Hanukkah (or is it Chanukah) without sufganiyot, the delicious filled donut treats? Jews traditionally eat lots of foods fried in oil on Hanukkah, to commemorate the small flask of oil that was found in … [Read more…]

Like many people, it looks like we are going to be a small crowd for Thanksgiving this year, but I still wanted to do something special. I came across a duck on sale at my local grocery store and I figured it would be the perfect thing. Nicer than the average chicken and small … [Read more…]
The leaves have turned a bright orange color and have covered the streets (and mostly on top of my car) . So obviously we know it’s been PUMPKIN season for a while! The PSL (pumpkin spice latte) trend starts probably just after Labor Day, but since Thanksgiving is next week (seriously, right?), a pumpkin … [Read more…]
