Shabbat Shalom and Happy April Weekend Friday April 4

sunala — Fri, 04 Apr 2014 05:15:11 GMT

Hi everyone,

Shabbat Shalom to all who observe, and a happy April weekend to all!

We started the week with a snowstorm on Monday morning, and by Monday afternoon it warmed up and was mostly melted and the sun was shining. Crazy!

May you be blessed with the love and warmth of family and friends every day of the year, not just on holidays and special occasions.

Sending prayers of healing and strength to you and your loved ones.

May your burdens and worries blow away with the wind.

To those of you having health and family issues, may everything turn out well. May your medical tests and those of your loved ones come back with happy results.

Many prayers for our country's well being and world peace. Bless the leaders who keep our country strong with wisdom and courage.

Praying that the Malaysian jet is finally found, so that the loved ones who remain can find some peace.

Good thoughts and thanks to our military. May they come home safely and SOON. Bless all the servicemen that didn't make it home; and to those who are serving, thank you for being there to protect our safety.

Special prayers for all the children...may they have good health, enough to eat and drink, a warm bed, and the abiding love of parents and family who will protect them. May the children survive and thrive. No child should ever go to bed hungry, nor should anyone else in this country. Help the food banks if you can. Even a little helps. May our own children be healthy and happy.

May your parents be healthy and happy as well. I hope everyone's mom and dad are feeling well or getting better. Donna my healing thoughts are with your mom.

Try to do a good deed for a stranger. They'll feel good, and you'll feel better.

May this year find you all surrounded by the love of your family and friends, in good health and never in need of anything that's important.

May the best of everything come your way, today and every day.

Sunny

Shabbat Shalom dear Sunny and all who observe. I hope everyone has a safe and peaceful week surrounded by those important to you.

My thoughts go out to the victims of the latest mass shooting at Fort Hood. How very sad for these brave men and women and of course their families. This shooter purchased his gun at the same store as the last Ft. Hood shooting. Where are we going wrong?

My heart is with the families of the passengers on the missing Malaysian flight. What agony they are all going through.

I pray for my chemo angel Jo and for all of the brave people fighting each day for another day.

I pray for the homeless, the helpless, the downtrodden, the mentally ill and those living in cars or shelters. Hungry, homeless children are words that should never be said together. Please help if you can. Everyone feels better with just a smile.

Sunny, my sweet sister, I pray for good health and happiness for you and your family. Thank you for letting me express myself each week on this wonderful thread.

Esther Fruma

Donna I hope your dear Mom is making progress.

I will be on vacation next Friday so Shabbat Shalom in advance

Good Shabbos. Wishing you all a happy and rain-free weekend. We had a deluge here. ?? Sunny, Passover is almost here. It's about time for me to make your matzoh crunch...one of the few Pesach foods I like.

Henny, I shouldn't have it either, but it's too good to pass up.

TGIF!! Happy weekend everyone.

Good Shabbos to all who observe.

Thank you Sunny, Ellen and everyone else for your prayers/thoughts for my mom. Progress is slow, one step forward, two steps backward. She was back in the hospital this week. I think she may be discharged tomorrow. She is getting wonderful care, but let's just say, she has a mind of her own. Exhaustifing.

What is matzoh crunch?

I second all the kind thoughts and prayers posted. Thank you Sunny for this friendly thread.

I am thankful for the PATIENT nurses/aides/staff at the hospital and rehab.

For all those still dealing with winter snow and ice, I am wishing you spring temps and warmth ASAP.

For those families suffering the loss of a loved one, may your memories comfort you and bring you strength during this difficult time.

Leaving you assorted mini pot pies...chicken, beef, seafood and veggie. The salad bar has anything and everything you could want on/in your salad.

The bar is stocked.....virgin, alcoholic and soft drinks.

For dessert, there are assorted fruit turnovers. Sugar free available, of course.

Mangia

Hi beautiful people, and thank you for your heart-warming wishes and prayers.

For those of you that are interested in the Butter Crunch Matzoh Candy, here is the recipe.

PASSOVER MATZOH BRITTLE CANDY

4-6 Sheets of unsalted matzah

1 cup unsalted butter (two sticks)

1 cup light brown sugar

1 cup (6 oz) semi sweet chocolate bits

(sprinkle sea salt) (1/2 tsp vanilla)

Preheat oven to 375.

Lightly grease cookie sheet or jelly roll pan. Line bottom of pan entirely with matzah, breaking into smaller pieces if necessary to cover.

In saucepan, combine butter and sugar, and cook over medium heat until boiling, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and cook, stirring, for three minutes. Pour sugar/butter mixture over matzah.

Bake for about 15 minutes, checking every four or five minutes to make sure not burning. Should be light caramel colored only --BURNS VERY EASILY!!

Remove from oven and sprinkle with chocolate bits. Let stand for a few minutes, then spread melted bits over entire surface. Cut or break into bite size pieces while still warm. Chill in refrigerator until set. ENJOY!!
