Houston Ima: Jam I am
http://houstonima.blogspot.com/2010/06/jam-i-am.html
Monday, June 7, 2010. Yes, what you are looking at right now are the fruits of our labors to date (see, I'm not counting children here). Let me explain this image to you:. The top jar with the RED STUFF. Is homemade strawberry jam. The bottom 3 jars with the BLACK STUFF. Is homemade blackberry jam. Let me repeat for you: HOME. MADE. JAM. And to answer your question - no, it doesn't get much better than this. We went strawberry picking. Last Sunday, and we made jam, and man oh man, that stuff is.

Houston Ima: Beginnings
http://houstonima.blogspot.com/2011/08/beginnings.html
Monday, August 22, 2011. Today is the first day of school for my kids. I originally thought of titling this post. But I got philosophical with myself and determined that all beginnings are new, because every beginning is a new opportunity for new experiences, even if the beginning itself may be the same as last year (school, for instance). But a beginning of any kind is exciting - one has no idea what the end of the day will be like, even for the best planners among us, because. Posted by Houston Ima.

Houston Ima: Fishtank fun
http://houstonima.blogspot.com/2011/07/fishtank-fun.html
Sunday, July 31, 2011. Friends, it's been a long, long, LONG time since my last post. Thank you for hanging in there with me. July has been an extremely busy month for me in several ways, all of which I'll eventually get to, but none of which is the subject of today's post. Today, I'm writing about our fishtank. Our fishtank is a new member of our family that came to us in a funny way. My amazing husband did so, but I had no idea of his immense attachment to the fishtank. And then my husband came with a ...

Houston Ima: April 2011
http://houstonima.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 23, 2011. Easy Passover Salmon Recipe. I got tired of meat meals so I made dairy for lunch today. In addition to my husband's awesome matza lasagna, I made a salmon fillet. This is hardly an original and more of a technique than anything else, but it's fresh tasting and super yummy so I'm including it here. Here's the recipe:. 1 piece of salmon fillet. 1 lemon, sliced with peel. 2 cloves of garlic, peeled and sliced thin. Several sprigs of fresh rosemary, stems removed. For the last coupl...

Rivki Silver thoughts and music. Your kosher lifestyle blog. What does that mean? What does that mean? Welcome to the glossary!

Houston Ima: Kid to Kid: new-ish resale shop in town
http://houstonima.blogspot.com/2011/06/kid-to-kid-new-ish-resale-shop-in-town.html
Thursday, June 2, 2011. Kid to Kid: new-ish resale shop in town. Thanks to Tasti D-Lite. Now going kosher in all of its Houston locations, my husband took all of us to the Galleria location one evening for a frozen dessert* treat. Isn't that like out of a dream? I came home from work and my husband declared that we're all going out for "ice cream". The kids had a blast, and apparently the frozen concoction was their dinner. A win/win/win for all. :-). And we explored it on Sunday. But here's the best par...

This is our first real vacation in.years.and we're going with the kids, plus we're going to ISRAEL! Really - is there a better place to go? Posted by Houston Ima.

Houston Ima: It's too hot - summer bucket list
http://houstonima.blogspot.com/2011/08/its-too-hot-summer-bucket-list.html
Tuesday, August 2, 2011. It's too hot - summer bucket list. At the start of every summer since I became a mom, I have this yearning to do all things summer-y, the kind of things that summertime lends itself to: drinking lots of lemonade, running on the beach, watching an outdoor concert, etc. For some reason, with the kids I feel like summertime is a "more fun" time, though there's nothing that makes summer different from the other three seasons. A summer bucket list! Now, usually this list is done.
