Shabbat Shalom from Israel

This was my Shabbat lunch. Good Shabbos! Cucumbers and mango splashed with fresh passion fruit, a nice little bunch of cilantro, challah, and some of my homemade goat yogurt drink, known properly as doogh (there is no ghayn in English, ask a Persian, and they will pronounce it for you). It was delicious, and so traditionally beautiful, I had to share it with you. Life is good sometimes :)


I could have said Kiddush on this doogh.


It was filled to the top like it is supposed to be to symbolize that our cup in life should always be full. Now that's what I call a blessing! Something to really be grateful for as we sit down to break bread, and partake of rest and relaxation with our loved ones for shabbat. Good karma, positive intention, it all goes forward, and in that spirit, should always be pluralistic. Amen!
