From Captain Sarah Kravits:

On a chilly, rainy Tuesday night, Shomrei’s MESH cafe provided a warm welcome to 15 guests. Chefs Sarah Steindel and Sarita Eisenberg worked with captain Sarah Kravits to make it a “team of Sarahs” night. Sarah and Sarita prepared a tasty meal of a mixed multicolor salad, buttered bread, Dijon chicken breasts, potato spinach casserole, and roasted carrots and broccoli, with fruit salad, wafers, and chocolate covered pretzels for dessert. Kudos to our chefs for repurposing potatoes and spinach that were in the refrigerator. Continue reading →

MESH 2016 dec 27From Captain Sarah Kravits:

On a fairly balmy (for December) evening this past Tuesday, Shomrei hosted 24 MESH guests while also housing IHN families for the week. Chef Aileen Grossberg cooked up a double batch of dinner to serve both groups, starting with a warming minestrone with parmesan and fusilli, then a mixed green salad, followed by a main course of salmon with brown sugar glaze accompanied by roasted carrots, peppers, and purple onions along with rolls. A Hanukkah treat of latkes with applesauce and sour cream rounded out the meal, which ended with a dessert of tuxedo chocolate mousse cake with fruit. Guests appreciated the Hanukkah blessings and menorah lighting and greatly enjoyed the meal. There was plenty, and some leftovers went home with our guests. Continue reading →

From Mesh Co-Chair Lynne Kurzweil:

On a Spring-like evening, 26 guests gathered at Shomrei’s MESH Café. Chef Arden Epstein prepared a nutritious vegetarian meal of cheese, crackers and vegetables, followed by a green salad. The main course was vegetable strata with edamame spaghetti with garlic sauce accompanied by Italian bread. Cappuccino mousse, one of Arden’s specialities, was served for dessert along with cookies. (Look for the recipe in the next Shomrei Cooks column) Arden , as usual, sent each guest home with a bag containing nutritious non perishables consisting of a granola bar, cheese stick and Clementine. In keeping with our attempt to not be wasteful, Arden made use of sliced cheese and crackers from the pantry and cookies, tomatoes and cucumbers left from the weekend bat mitzvah. Continue reading →

shulman_adrienneI only recently learned why we make Shalach Manot goodie bags and deliver them to our entire Shomrei congregation – to increase love and friendship between Jews, thereby dismissing Haman’s accusations that there is strife and dissension among Jews.  Lovely!
