Ilay put to use the pepper skills she had learnt a couple of months ago and we tasted her excellent and hot pickles and pickled cucumbers at the 29th 1/3 family reunion.

Ilay had expressed an interest in preparing the hot pepper pickles - a favourite of the family - that I make. As she was with us during Rosh Hashanah we spent time together preparing a kilo or so for her and the Segolis to take home.

December 2020
Eilat has been declared a Covid-safe "island" and entry to the city is only permitted to people who have tested negative for the virus. So we queued up and did our tests within the required 72 hours and after receiving "negative" results drove to Eilat, and were of course delighted to be able to spend a weekend with the Eilat Levys. We had brought some fresh pecan nuts from Ruti and Dani Erez's trees and Ilay helped us crack open the shells and separate the nuts as we talked and enjoyed quality time.
