  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Those are gorgeous!! I am still too intimidated by bread baking to even try - though I may break down over the summer break and risk it...... hmmm..... if a college student with his head full of aramaic and computer codes can get it to look that good (how'd it taste?) maybe I can at least get mine to rise!!

Sweet, but not too sweet, and light and tender. :)

It's really easy and fun. Cooking happens to be one of my hobbies of which I am just as adamant about as the Aramaic language.

The recipe I used I found at http://www.business.strose.edu/68298/chris/CHALLAH.HTM . ~poke poke~ Give it a try! :)

Peace!

Looks like you did a five braid? tHadman? Your egg wash came out beautiful, nice and browned on the "bumps". The stores around me that carry the Challah have loaves that are all brown, not brown and golden like homemade. I think you did a fine job for your first try, they look better than mine when I started making them years ago.

You get an

That's pretty similar to the recipie my wife uses.

To be honest Steve-o, those look fantastic. Now all you need is a woman in the house to light those darn candles. ;)

You know I heard that Steve and a certain young lady may be comming to PA for a revival end of June and as it JUST SO HAPPENS we will be doing 2 weddings that weekend.

You know 2 - - 3 Hey the more the MARRY-er


Good Job on the Challa Steve
