    So many beautiful things in this video- Baby Firefly’s precious voice, the bread, the day at the park, the new head coverings. Isn’t it so nice to buy something for ourselves that makes us feel pretty?!?! I loved seeing your little baker helping you weigh the dough to make the strands for the challah. I am impressed that you braided 6 strands. I don’t make bread, but I do braid my granddaughter’s hair and one meal I make with crescent rolls and 3 strands can be a challenge for me! I cannot even begin to imagine doing 6.
    And you are right, fresh sheets are so nice. Have a blessed Shabbat! Until Monday…..

    LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one who makes bread in a big metal bowl. Watching you dump that bag of flour into the bowl I started laughing and went "yup, that's how you do it when you're making more than a couple of loaves." I have the same bento boxes here and we use them a lot between activities and people taking their lunch to work.

    • @jaroffireflies
      @jaroffireflies  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Oh yes, I do 5 pounds of flour at a time and that big bowl is pretty much just my challah bowl :) how do you like the bento boxes? I put them in the washing machine and it kind of distorted the shape a little bit. But they still work and we still super love them.

    • @reneematlock9657
      @reneematlock9657 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I absolutely LOVE them although the "top rack dishwasher safe" thing is a bit of a misnomer since the plastic ones do warp if you put them in the dishwasher often. We have 25 or 30 of them all told so the kids like to "mix and match" pieces and I'm ok with that so long as all the pieces-parts make it back to the kitchen at the end of the day. It's kind of like the "Snackie drawer" I keep for the grandkids - it gives the kids some choices but not so many they may become overwhelmed.
      The kids love them too since it means their stuff that is supposed to be crisp (chips or crackers) or dry (sandwiches) don't wind up getting soggy and allows our kids who cannot stand food touching to separate their food so none of it is touching.
      We have older homeschoolers and part of their education plan is volunteer time at local homes for the aged, the food pantry, local summer festivals, church activities, story hour at the library, etc... which means they frequently need to take lunch with them.

      @@jaroffireflies I started volunteering young and one of the things that we've required of our children since we started "collecting" them (we have 19 adopted or that we have permanent guardianship of and 3 of our own) is that they spend at least an hour a week volunteering somewhere. In the case of the youngest, they volunteer at the homes for the aged from about age 8. With the older ones they get to choose their volunteer activities and they have spread out all over our and now their communities. With 22 between the ages of 8 and 45 that's a whole lot of hands being held out to people who need a hand. I had to laugh when out oldest moved to China a few years ago for his job because they don't have homes for the aged *but* my grandkids have unofficially adopted several elderly "aunties" and "uncles" that they check up on and assist where they can.
      We made volunteering a part of their education because compassion and love towards others is in short supply these days in many communities so we started with people who have been "forgotten" by our society and moved out from there.

    You can save the old poof and get it fluffy again if the fabric is in decent shape. It takes a bit of work and a trip to a craft store and buying a bag of pillow stuffing first. You need to hand wash the poof and let it air dry completely, then you can very carefully unpick a seam to remove the current fluff. Pull every bit of the fluff out and carefully restuff with the pillow stuffing. Try not to crush the stuffing, which is way more difficult than it sounds. 😂 Use more than you think you need. Sew the seam and there you have it, one restored poof!

    Hey Chana! Another great vid. Two things: 1 I’d love to see a dedicated video of you “modelling” your new scarves and the styles you’ll wear them in.
    2. Question: Do you ever pray/put intention into your food as you make it? I’m a kitchen witch and pagan so much of my spiritual experience takes place over the stove/ mixing bowl/ chopping board. You’ve shown and talked about some of the blessings over food and before you eat, snd I know so many rituals and traditions in Judaism focus around mealtimes so I was wondering if you ever knead blessings into your Challah, for example!

    • @jaroffireflies
      @jaroffireflies  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you Alix and thank you for the video suggestion! I do plan on doing another scarf video coming up. And to answer your food question, there is no obligation to pray or have intention on our food as we prepare it. That said, I 100% cook with love and want people to feel that love when I cook so if that counts as intention then yes it’s something that I personally do, but it’s not like a legal Jewish requirement if that makes sense

    Watching baby firefly and listening to him, I really miss not having a baby around. Course I probably won't be able to keep up with him. Little ones move so fast lol. But I do miss that. Doggie was checking to see if he got anything lol. Love the new scarves, pretty colors. Really liked that first one you tried on. It looked so good on you.

    Oh Chana your joy and excitement at being out with friends and other women, your community and spending time for yourself, was so obvious. It made me feel a bit teary, in a good way, remembering how it was for me as a young Mum years ago, going out to sales nights. I have to say that I love all your choices and think that your delight in head covering is a beautiful witness. I dress modestly and in a feminine way and I know that others see that and your channel here does the same on a larger scale. I did laugh at you doing your prayer time with a baby as that was me, this morning with Miss Iris, 4. She was up earlier than I expected! We do what we have to do. And we also love a playground that is new. Your little son is very good at climbing - how old is he now? Iris loves playgrounds a lot so I spend a decent amount of time at them or outdoors each week. Hugs from Australia.

      Hi Cate! Sorry for the delay in my response :) Busy days here lately but all good things :) My little guy there is almost 5, and loves to climb! Playgrounds are his favorite right now :) By the way, I don't know if you were still interested in being pen pals, but if you are, let me know :)

      @@jaroffireflies ah hello! You kinda have your hands full, so no stress on delayed replies. He and Iris are close in age then, and they suddenly start being able to, and happy to climb anything. Keeps me on my toes.

    The turbans and scravds are so pretty and are just the right amount of shimmery for the holiday season and for anytime of the year.. Baby firefly is getting so big, befire we all know it, we'll blink and he'll be running around trying to keep up with his big brothers.😷🤷🤦🤷 All of the kiddos are growing up so fast. The Challah looked so good 🥪🍞. Bella was so cute trying to see if there were any treats in the bag for her 😂 🦮🐕‍🦺,.

    Good morning Chana your bread omg looks so fabulous. I love baking (and pretty good if i do say so lol) but two things I'm afraid of making are pie crusts and bread.
    The headscarfs you picked out are gorgeous. Can you wear any headscarf or does it have to be from a certain place or maybe blessed ...silly question but it popped into my head when you said they come to your town like a traveling sales person? Have a lovely day much love Rissy.

    • @jaroffireflies
      @jaroffireflies  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi Rissy! Thank you for your lovely comment 💜 To answer your question, anything could be a head covering as long as it covers my hair. I’ve gotten them from thrift stores, department stores, and Jewish owned small shops. They don’t need to be made a certain way or anything like that. Great question!
