- Let's get ready for shabbat! Cook with me as I make puppy chow, potato kugel, noodle kugel, broccoli kugel, and chicken strips. Clean with me as I vacuum, mop, and make the kitchen shine. And come along as I get it all done from setting the table, preparing the shabbat candles, and more. Its a very busy day getting ready for shabbat and I am so excited to share it with you!
Hello and welcome! My name is Chana, I’m married to my best friend, and we have three wonderful children together. We also happen to be Orthodox Jews and we homeschool our kids. This video is a sneak peek into our daily lives :) You can see how this particular Jewish homeschool mom sets up her days, rolls with the punches, and gets it all done. Thanks for watching!

I did not do the strusel topping. I subbed vegan cream cheese, vegan sour cream, and soy milk to make it dairy free.

Did I make a dish you love or would like to try? Let me know your favorite! For me it’s the puppy chow 😂
We love potato kugel, and we make it every week but we don't drain the potatoes, so that would be interesting to try, everything looks delicious!
@@aidele5757 is it more moist that way? I bet that’s better
@@jaroffireflies I would have to make it your way to compare the two, but I assume that mine would be more starchy? If that makes sense
@@aidele5757 I’m going to have to experiment!
What the heck is puppy chow?!
Sounds like something you'd feed the dog! 🤣
You did great getting ready for shabbat🎉😊
I don't know how you feel inside, you look calm and serene.
Thank you :)
i just made the weirdest thing ever :) since i learned a little about bread baking and basics like making a quiche is realised you can pretty much bake anything. need something for volume, something to bind it and something to make it rise. so i threw a bunch of random stuff in a bowl like oats, chocolate, coffee mixed it all together with some milk and baked it like a quiche ^^ my very own backyard hack browny ^^
Thats awesome! Way to learn a new skill!
Most of the time I use a dust mop. I have a dog that sheds lots of hair and the mop holds the dogs hair better then a broom will.
Your husband cracks me up! "You're making a cheesecake!"
Right?!?!? 😂😂😂
Love your content! I’m not Jewish but I so enjoy learning about your religion and customs. Love love the concept of Shabbat. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I’m so glad you’re enjoying and that they help you learn about Jewish culture!
I forgot to mention, listening to you is very soothing. I converted two years ago and keep a Kosher home. I’m in NYC. Chaim Yehuda or Jim!
Thank you so much! That’s so kind of you to say! So nice to *meet* you!
I instantly recognized your potatocugel. It's used both in Norway and Sweden at least (maybe in Finland and Denmark too). We use the same batter, but make pancakes out of them. Delishious! The broccolicugel looked wonderful too, not to mention the fish and the chicken. As you probably know, in the time catholisism was the ruling religious denomination, in the Nordic countries at least, fish was always served on Friday.
And when you have three young children and a dog, you probably have to both vacume a n d wash your floor, at least until the snow is coming 😉😉
Yes many find it funny that we eat fish on Fridays lol So glad you enjoyed seeing the food! Thank you for sharing about your culture :) And oh yes I am vacuuming constantly it feels like sometimes lol
@@jaroffireflies I loved watching you cook! Please send more of that 😊 And for vacuming; as I have a dog and two cats (lots of mice around here), the vacumer is nescessary. But not everything comes up with it, small particles will stay until it's mopped up. And I do remember a lot of sand both on the floors and in the washingmachine when my daughter was little (now 25) 😄
@@annekarinverby1538 so glad you enjoyed watching me cook! I do enjoy cooking though my husband does most of it :)
Hello I've started watching your videos recently and wanted to say I love them. I'm a Seventh Day Adventist and Sabbath is easily my favorite day! 😍 It's amazing how much good it does. 🙌🙏
Hello and welcome! I am so glad that you are here! Shabbat truly is such a gift 💜
Definitely need to make puppy chow. Looks addictive!
It is! Be forewarned lol enjoy!
Such a fun video....my grands love Puppy Chow. I have not made it in a long time so now I may stir some up.
It’s so yum! My kids love it so much!
Don't you love those days when you actually accomplish everything you want to? Ahhhh the super sweet feeling we have when we can sit down and rest afterwards! 😍 yay Mom!
It’s the BEST! And it’s rarer and rarer these days 🤣 I’m so happy I had one I could share with y’all!
For my floors I prefer them to be swept with a broom then mopped. I don't have a vacuum cleaner, it would be nice to have one to vacuum the sofa.
Definitely makes the sofa easier to care for!
Do i prefer to sweep or mop…. I use my dyson fluffy head with the green laser. NOT the motorhead that is for carpets only. Then I mop if the floor is sticky or needs stains cleaned but the fluffy head dusts better than sweeping❤
When I was a young girl (8 or 9) my main job was to wash and wax the kitchen floor. I did it on my hands and knees and I still think that’s the best way. I don’t have kids so big difference. I still Ike it. I think browning food gives xtra flavor. Love learning from you.
I have heard that washing the floor by hand like that is the best way. I’m just not sure my poor old knees would tolerate me doing that!
We live in MN so the kids, and dogs drag in mud, snow, slurry mix with sand/salt. Sweeping is a daily chore in our home. I am a hands and knees scrub the floor lady because a mop unfortunately just doesn't cut it. (I am in over drive nesting 38weeks pregnant. That plays a part in it. Haha ) I am a smidge obsessive with a clean floor and keeping up on laundry for the moment. 🤣
I’m obsessed with clean floors too in general lol though it was nice to take a few days off last week lol
The first unknown flowers might be salvia, not sure since I can't see close enough. The second are definitely sea holly. Love that you used both week's flowers, definitely making me tempted to get cut flowers and make a bouquet for the table.
Thank you so much!!!!! I super appreciate the flower ID! I’ll be googling Sea Holly later. It was such a cool flower!
I love the tea pot, super adorable
Thank you!!!
Hello, Chana, I absolutely love watching your Shabbos prep videos. I watch all of the ones you have uploaded so far when I am preparing for Shabbos myself. 😂😂
Such fun! Thank you!!!!
You are amazing!
Thank you!
I haven’t made kugel for ages, must have another try soon. One of our favourites for shabbat is salmon grilled (broiled in US English 😉) with pesto and breadcrumbs. I don’t make it that often these days as we have a family member with a nut allergy so I have to make the pesto from scratch (toasted sesame seeds instead of pine nuts) but everyone loves it when I do. Shabbat prep was a wash-out here this week. The kids were back at forest school and it completely messed up my timings; need to rethink before next week!
I bet it was so wonderful for you and the kids to be have the kids back in forest school!!! You are so lucky to have one nearby! The pesto salmon you make sounds amazing!!!!
I made my normal eggplant dip but I cooked on the flame like Mr FireFly and it was soooooo good. My partner asked why it was so much better than normal :)
Love that! So glad you learned a new trick!!! 💜
I love your reference to Chanas husband, "Mr. FireFly" absolutely love it!
I'm going to try this. Yummy
Enjoy!
Hi! I enjoy your videos a great deal! I agree with your husband that noodle casserole sounds more like a dessert! Are yall not allowed to use regular sour cream, cream cheese, or milk products? Could your husband please show us his recipe and method for cooking his fish dish? I would love to learn more about Morrocan cooking. And yea! for the Cajun spices on the chicken strips! Lol! Thanks for sharing so much of your life!
Ps.....what is the make and model of your vacuum? It looks so easy and lite weight!
hello Debbie! Thank you so much! I am so happy to hear that you are enjoying my videos! We do plan to make a video where we go through how to make the Moroccan fish, its so delicious! We are allowed to use regular dairy products, but the dish I was cooking was going to be served with meat so it could not contain any actual dairy because that would be against the laws of keeping kosher (because we would be mixing meat and dairy). The vacuum is a Dyson :) It is very nice and easy to use!
SHABOTT SHALOM
Shabbat Shalom!
I love my dyson stick vac! I just got it for Hanukkah from my husband and I use it a few times a week. I do feel like it I find a crumb or hair left behind so get what u mean about wanting to sweep. I taught my 1 1/2 year old to swiffer so that helps with the never ending dirt!
Oh swiffer for the kids is a fabulous idea!!! So smart!!!
Good job, and u did it all without feeling rushed that's amazing! I didn't know that the broom works better than a vacuum cleaner, we only use the broom, but I thought of investing in a cordless vacuum coz it looks so much easier
I don’t know if it works better, I just think it does 😂 I love the cordless vacuum though!
I live in Lancaster County, PA alot of Amish and German influence Kugel is pretty much s thing here.
Oh that’s cool!
Loving your videos!! Kugel question: are kugels just Jewish casseroles? I feel very much a “just put in what will taste good” vibe to kugels that are very casserole-esque. Lol
Ya I think that’s a great way of summing it up :) The only major difference is it’s a side dish and not a main dish or one pot meal like a traditional American casserole often is
Mopping is cathartic for me.
Lol @ the end. I'm guessing you have LG washer/dryer. We know that tune well.
Yes 😂😂😂
I think sweeping is better for me it reaches places that a vaccum cannot
I am starting to feel that way too!!!
Your food looks good, it's making me hungry! I'd try everything except the fish,as I'm not a fish eater (don't like fish).
Thank you Cassandra!
Hi Hannah, can I ask you were do you buy your beautiful dresses? 😊🇬🇧.
I get them a lot of different places. Some of my favorites are The Mimi Boutique, April Cornell, and then just random places wherever I find a great dress :)
Love your tichel it’s gorgeous. I didn’t know Manischewitz had GF egg noodles, I’m trying to use up all chametz in my pantry so I’ll substitute with what I have, will be making noodle kugel this week. I like nutmeg in custard so I’ll add a pinch. I’m need to order my GF matzoh, which brand do you like?
Nutmeg sounds like an amazing addition! There is no brand of gf matzah we like, my son only likes the shehakol gf matzah.
Love your head scarf- where can I find one like it?
Thank you! I probably got this at The Mimi Boutique 💜
Can you but some of the recipe that you may pleaseA potato and the pasta side dishes with the chicken thank you
Hi Hannah, can I ask you wear you buy your beautiful dresses? Thank you. 😊🇬🇧 x
Thank you! The dress I wore for Shabbat in this video came from a shop which I can't remember... I do order a lot of dresses from The Mimi Boutique, or from April Cornell. I hope that is helpful!
@@jaroffireflies thank you so much. I’ll get my husband to get me the link. Thank you again. Stay safe. 🙏🏻🇬🇧
@@raymondwilliamson918 you’re so welcome!
Do you ever use a knife to peel potatoes? I find I get more control with a knife.
I’m not fast at all with a knife and I’m slow enough with the peeler :)
Chana, i noticed when you set the Shabbot table you set a kiddush cup out for all except yourself. Or did i not see yours?
Correct. My husband says kiddush so he gets a kiddush cup. My older son sometimes says his own kiddush so we got him his own kiddush cup. Then the other kids wanted one too so we have them some older ones we had. I just use a wine glass or water glass depending on what I’m choosing to drink 😊 It’s not necessary for them to all have a kiddush cup, but they like it :)
@@jaroffireflies ahh ok. Thank you for explaining. I learned something new! Shabbat Shalom!
@@nicolepelletier9081 my pleasure!
Do you share your Moroccan fish dish? Love your videos
We do! And I’m planning to do a video where I make the Moroccan fish and go through the whole recipe:) It’s just been a little crazy with unpacking and all but I’m hoping to do it soon!
Vacuum, sweep, and mop. If I can motivate myself to do anything, these days.
Love that!
Is there a reason a couple of your cabinet doors don't have handles? I notice it on both sides of the kitchen.
Yes :) We had to replace a few doors and just haven’t put the handles on yet :)
@@jaroffireflies Sounds like my never ending kithen renovation lol
@@courtneylyons8404 seems to be the way of things lol
Are eggs considered meat or dairy in a Kosher diet?
Great question! Eggs are considered parve (meaning they are not meat or dairy)
Okay it seems your husband makes this fish a lot! What’s in it?
It’s tilapia! I’m planning to do a cooking video that goes through the recipe and process 💜
@@HadassahTikvah I promise! Just waiting for things to calm down a bit around here ❤️
is there a special reason why your husband makes fish every week?
It’s just his tradition:) It tastes like Shabbat now for us so we love it Friday nights!
