some personal news: I survived a weekend trip to IKEA

one of my favorite parts of Passover was always the haroset, a sweet apple-nut paste/spread. its color and texture are meant to recall mortar (or clay used to make adobe bricks) which the Israelites used when they were enslaved in Ancient Egypt. beyond that, it’s a super easy/delicious snack that can be eaten all year long. it’s traditionally made with wine (which I don’t use) and walnuts, but you can use whatever nuts you want. HERE’S MY “RECIPE” in a food processor, combine: * apple (you can peel if you want) * candied pecans (I used the ones from trader joe’s) * roasted pistachios * roasted slivered almonds * pomegranate juice * cinnamon * honey to taste and yes, I did order the Maxwell House Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Haggadah. the candle stick is from my Bat Mitzvah. . . . . . #passover #passover2019 #judaism #dinnertime #ididntcookthis #marvelousmrsmaisel #themarvelousmrsmaisel #haggadah #matzo #matzoh

where are my jewish sisters? what’s your favorite jewish food? mine are latkes and I will eat them on passover if I want to. l’chaim, brl . . . . . #latkes #jewishgirl #passover #passover2019 #judaism #dinnertime #ididntcookthis #matzoball #matzoballsoup

the blues 🔷🇳🇮 as I think about passover this year, I’m reminded of this vignette I captured on a trip to Morocco in 2017. tucked away in a little alley in Marrakech, there is a synagogue built by Jews expelled from Spain during the 15th century. restored about 10 years ago, the garden outside of the synagogue is now decked out in buoyant blue and white tiles, set in interlocking Jewish stars. located in the heart of the old Jewish Quarter know as Mellah, this place of worship and study was originally built in 1492 during the Inquisition when the Jews were driven out of Spain. known as the “synagogue of the exiles,” I felt my heart swell and remind me of the hardship that so many people have felt, but all the hope and togetherness that was felt in those walls for centuries. walking into the empty synagogue, I felt moved as I thought of my years and years of hebrew school, of passover, of the life my ancestors lived, fleeing from persecution. the stillness of the synagogue felt beautiful and sad, coated in a layer of dust and shabbat candles. there is still a feeling of love and togetherness, and a feeling that one day, none of us will be exiles because we all belong in this world. l’chaim, brl . . . . . #morocco #moroccotravel #marrakech # #judaism #jewishstar #starofdavid #pesach #passover #jewishart #synagogue #postitfortheaesthetics #blues #bluedecor #bluetiles

you are going to be ok. you are going to be ok. I know it’s hard right now but it will only make you so damn strong. I trust you. be real with yourself. make mistakes. trust you. trust your voice and use your words. you don’t need to be scared anymore. you are loved, I swear. you are safe, I know. you are healing, it’s ok. be kind to yourself. . xo —brl . . a journaling edit after my therapy session today. this is my own handwriting! my doctor and I are going to start trauma therapy again now that my crohn’s symptoms are a little more managed (!!). today we discussed what the next steps are: me writing about one of the more distressing traumas that I still have flashbacks and nightmares about. I am looking forward to the next steps in this healing journey. now, for LOTS of self care. . . #aestheticedits #journaldoodles #journaling #deardiary #currentmood #ptsd #ptsdawareness #depression #depressionawareness

#notmydog I watched this adorable mini schnauzer mix over the weekend. she was a big snuggler and really loved playing with her plush squeaky ducky. she’s actually up for adoption (if you’re interested search “schnauzer” in seattle on petfinder—she’ll come up under “cookie”), but we don’t feel ready to adopt a pup yet. it’s been so nice to be able to spend time with dogs as I grieve Max. I read that grief is having love for someone but nowhere for that love to go. if you’ve experienced loss, it’s like that feeling of emptiness when someone dies. being able to cuddle with a furry mini schnauzer (or a frenchie or a mini pin) for the weekend definitely helped me express that love. . cheers, brl . . . . . #pnwdogs #pnwdogsofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #dogsofpnw #seattledogs #seattledogsofinstagram #roversitter #dogsitting #dogsittinglife #minischnauzer #minischnauzerpuppy #minischnauzers
