Shavit - the young cook

The day has come - the day when one of my kids prepared and served the lunch for the whole family.

There are quite a few days ago we were talking on the matter of Shavit getting some experience in kitchen business - not like his father, i.e. me. I really do want him - and Avidan - to be able to care to himself including preparing some food. A year or more ago we even bought a book by Ruth Sirkis "Kids cook" (Hebrew version can be found at the site). Indeed, Shavit cooked by this lovely book.


Long story short - here is the menu from the festive lunch that he served for us:

- an opening course: ship sandwich with egg salad, parsley and spices

- a main course: Shavi-burger with tomato, mustard, ketchup and pickled cucumbers

- desert: fruit salad and orange juice

All food was swept from the table in a matter of less than 15 minutes! Avidan suggested Shavit makes this kind of lunch every day. I said that he is the next in the row to cook.

Needless to say, all this would not be possible without help and directions from Mom. Inna was tired at the end but happy that her son stood till the meals were ready.

And what grandmas said? "Why didn't you invite us to taste?"

The food revolution began...

Recipes by Inna

Last November we hosted guests from faraway Sydney, Australia. My friend Raymond Chung came with wife Wilie and daughter Melissa. As it happens, Inna prepared many delicious meals. Wilie was really impressed with the variety and taste. We thought that praises were over when they left, but just before this Christmas came a request to send a recipe for one of Inna's favorites - backed mushroom casserole. As they usually say in marketing - "following popular demand", Inna wrote the text in Russian and I quickly translated to English. Now even in faraway Australia her dishes make waves. Backed mushroom casserole Ingredients:  - dough: 6 eggs, 5 tablespoons of mayonnaise, one 15% sour cream, 5 tablespoons of flour without backing powder, half pack of backing powder, salt and pepper and a bit of sugar  per your own tasting preferences - stuffing: 2 big onions fried to golden color, 1 bottle of canned champignon mushrooms or 300 gr of fresh mushrooms, fry these mus...

Kids saying - and said... Part 5 (Ru)

Несколько дней назад мы решили проверить базовое знание русского языка у детей. Для этого мы называли животное на иврите и получали ответ на русском. Пока речь шла об особях мужского пола, дело шло неплохо. "Дов" легко превратился в медведя, "пиль" в слона и т.д. Но потом мы поменяли правила игры и попросили назвать женские особи - типа медведь-медведица, кот-кошка. И тут начали появляться перлы. Авидан изобрёл новое имя петухица ( раз медведь превращается в медведицу, то петух в петух ицу - железная логика, правда?). Потом появилась кониха (всё очень просто - если слон имеет слон иху , то почему конь не может иметь кониху?). Шавит тоже не остался в долгу и добавил в копилку шедевров великого русского языка слово волкуха - по аналогии с олень-олен иха . О сколько нам открытий чудных...
