Shabbat, Sukkot, Shmini Atzeret, Simchat Torah

It’s been a monumentally stressful month. We had a job-loss scare, my schedule changed so that I have Sundays off and work every Friday, and the holidays all fell on Sunday this season.

So I haven’t been keeping up with recording menus, and our meals have been very, very plain. Delicious, but plain. Here are some of the things I remember:

crockpot chow
crockpot nacho beans. with rice, with cornbread, with chips.
boureka
fake-bacon sandwiches
“cheese odyssey” tm
we ate at shul at least once
lasagna pie (extreme success)
pumpkin pie
apple pie
