Work in a local bookstore north of Chicago. Have 2 of your books and have sent as gifts and sold them in our store. Just wanted you all to know that I was thinking of you in this crazy coved time. Cooking and baking has kept me busy and sane. Hope you are all well.
I don’t usually write to authors/fellow cooks, but feeling I should when the mood hits. Getting ready for Passover tonight. Looked to your website for inspiration. Voila! All kinds of new recipes.
Stay healthy.
(Sorry, I just realised this answer I posted was not sent to you in April 2020!)
Hi Marla, So lovely to hear from you. What a terrible time we are living in now – here’s hoping it will soon pass.
Hope you are keeping safe in Chicago.
Thanks for reaching out – it is so nice to hear from you. We have been busy sharing lots of Passover recipes and hope we are providing some distraction from the world around us. Thrilled to hear you have 2 of our books, and sold them in the store. The new book will be out in the USA in November and I hope you’ll be able to sell that one too!
Wishing you a good and healthy Passover.
Happy cooking!

Would love some breakfast options for kinder aged children… not matza brei or “muesli” and something warm, and easy to make. I am all idea’d out. Made chremsels and “pancakes”, and hoping you guys have old or new family faves.
thanks

Hi Ess, that’s it for us for Pesach I’m afraid. Other than boiled eggs and matzo soldiers to dip….we are making matzo brei and pancakes, and smoked salmon on matzo with cream cheese. What about a matzo kugel for the kids?
