#AdvancedPrompts

Instructions for a Heatwave | Maggie O'Farrell
post image

#WeeklyForecast 09/21

The tagged book‘s cover is one of the ugliest I‘ve come across in a long time but I am always looking forward to another O‘Farrell. The Parable of the Sower will tick off many challenges points but first I have started the slim novel West, which you sent me and I had never heard of but am enjoying 🤍

Kalalalatja I will give you, that O‘Farrell cover isn‘t the prettiest 😅 3y
BarbaraBB @Kalalalatja It isn‘t even retro 😧 3y
Cinfhen The ugly O‘Farrell works for #pop21 #AdvancedPrompts 💕💕and West was really odd but special/ I think you‘ll like it😁❣️🤞🏼 3y

Sometimes a book lands in your lap and you didn‘t even know you were looking for it. This is a #genreHybrid part memoir, part cookbook, part self-help. Beth Ricanati, shares the beauty of Judaism, its traditions & beliefs and how the art of preparing & baking challah ( traditional Friday night Sabbath bread) is good for your mental & physical health. I‘m looking forward to actually trying her recipe/method for making challah. 👇🏼

Cinfhen This was gifted to me by my son Eric, who had the pleasure of sharing a Shabbat dinner with Dr. Beth Ricanti. Book also works for multiple challenge prompts 🙌🏻♥️ 3y
Freespirit What a lovely son you have Cindy💕 3y

Cinfhen THANK YOU 💕💕💕💕He‘s a sweet guy @Freespirit I‘m proud of the young man he‘s become. 3y
Kalalalatja Sounds like a lovely book, and the story behind only makes it more special! ❤️ 3y
Cinfhen Thanks @Kalalalatja ♥️♥️♥️ 3y
Blaire Oh this sounds great. I‘m going to read and recommend it to my mom. 3y
Cinfhen It‘s such a wonderful gift @Blaire I hope you both enjoy it💕It does seem that Beth grew up in privilege, so u need to sort of look pass that 🙄 3y
CoffeeAndABook I‘ve heard so often that baking bread is good for your mental health, really therapeutic. And maybe even more so if it‘s imbedded in an age-old and/or religious tradition. If you know your ancestors centuries ago did this same thing at the end of a long trying week. I have yet to try it myself though 🙈 3y
KarenUK This sounds lovely..... Stacked! 💕🥖 3y
CoffeeK8 This sounds wonderful! Stacking this so fast! 💕 3y
Cinfhen I think everyone can gleam something from this book @CoffeeAndABook @KarenUK @CoffeeK8 and if the result is the delicious aroma of fresh bread even better😊 3y
CoffeeAndABook @Cinfhen did you bake a challah from the book? Is it as good as I imagine? 3y
Cinfhen No, @CoffeeAndABook I need to work up my courage... baking challah intimidates me 3y
CoffeeAndABook @Cinfhen I am intimidated by baking anything more sophisticated than brownies or chocolate chip cookies 😂 so I totally understand!! 3y
CoffeeAndABook @Cinfhen ... but my brownies and choc chip cookies are to die for - so it‘s not a total write-off!!! 😃 3y
Cinfhen Yum!!!! Two of my FAVORITE desserts @CoffeeAndABook 3y
CoffeeAndABook @Cinfhen wish I could invite you over for a 🍪 & ☕️!! 💓 3y
Reviewsbylola Glad you had a good choice for this prompt! 3y
Cinfhen That would be SO AWESOME @CoffeeAndABook ❤️ 3y
Cinfhen Thanks @Reviewsbylola I wasn‘t expecting to enjoy it as much as I did 💕 3y
Centique Awww what a lovely gift from your son. I can see how baking bread - with the extra depth of culture and religion - would be therapeutic. I have tried to bake bread three times with no success but then I read a bakers blog about the different types of yeast - so I‘ve bought a different type now and hope that helps me!! 🤞🤞 3y
