The Edible Torah

There is a self-consciousness that comes with trying something new, a concern about getting it right. It doesn't help that Shabbat carries with it the implication of thousands of years of tradition, not to mention the whole "God is watching" concept.

The core of this book is about encouraging people - which goes beyond your immediate family - to participate in a Shabbat celebration, and to do so in a way that is non-threatening, enjoyable, engaging and fun.

I'm not out to "improve" Shabbat, or tell you that I know some secret to making it work that other people don’t. At heart of the matter, I want to share one trick that has made weekly Shabbat gatherings fun and engaging for people from all walks of life - all ages, family dynamics, and religious traditions. It's not the ONLY trick. It's not even necessarily the BEST trick. It's just MY trick, and I want to share it.
