Whenever I walk into a fancy candy shop I am drawn to the display of Pate de Fruit. These glistening fruit jellies look like shining jewels lined up in the display and I always want to buy some.

My husband is currently on a trip in Israel. Talking to him everyday about all the things he is seeing and experiencing has meant that Israel is very much on all of our minds (especially my older son who keeps reminding my husband that next time he wants to go too).

It has been a crazy couple of weeks around here. I literally have barely had time to check my email, let alone get a blog post together. I am hoping things will calm down and I will be able to get back into a normal rhythm next week, but in the meantime I wanted to [...]

There is something about s’mores that just makes me smile. Perhaps it is the fact that it is almost impossible to eat a s’more without geting messy, or the fact that eating s’mores reminds me of wonderful times sitting around a campfire. Or perhaps it is just the fact that they are utterly delicious. Regular [...]
