magidWell, mostly. The menu:
challah (this week's innovation is adding some crushed flaxseed, and the loaves came out really pretty... let's see how they taste, though), served initially with honey ('tis the season), but with za'atar and olive oil available as a dip
wine/grape juice
mushroom barley soup, with some leeks
roasted veggies: potatoes, carrots, sweet potato, and leeks
tomato chickpea salad with olives
green salad with tomatoes, multicolored peppers, basil
brussels sprouts
vegan chocolate cake and/or chocolate chocolate bread pudding (this last is the non-vegan part of the meal).
Still feels like I should have another veggie or something, but it's just not going to happen. I also made some arctic char with cranberry chutney for tomorrow lunch.
Poison ivy update: saw the nurse (running late, hence my running late), who still thinks it's poison ivy, but a stubborn case. I now have a prescription of hydroxyzine (I like how it has "xyz" in it) to take when getting itchy. The pills are rather pretty, small violet ones. Hope it works... Otherwise I call back next week and get to go to a dermatologist. Though if things don't feel better by after Yom Kippur, I may track down the stuff Pheromone found and try that.
Must finish cooking, straighten the house.... no way I'm making it to services in 40 min....
News Flash! Just got an email: the Cambridge-Somerville eruv is UP for the first time ever, Shabbat Shuvah, 5763! Woo-hoo!
