The excitement is buzzing all around our Jewish community, where learning will be happening into the late hours of the night and early morning.  It is amazing to be open, and show our children the magic of our lifestyle.  My kids go to a public school with about half Orthodox Jewish kids, so they understand when we do not go to school during the Jewish holidays, what a blessing.  Our streets become little Israel, starting tonight and the next two days.

My husband accidentally bought just grape leaves, and my daughter loves plain rice, so we decided to watch a video on how to wrap them, and they are cooking right now, we did it together, it was so much fun.  We did it Lebanese style, cooking in lemon and spices.

Chag Sameach!

Shavuot is coming at sundown tonight,
