| The fresh smell of Sweet Pea blossoms on the table mixes with the rich aroma of fresh-baked challah. The spring night air is fresh and crisp and windows in the kitchen steam up near the chicken soup. Everyone waits in great anticipation for the men, young and old, to return from shul in order to celebrate, once again, the Holy Shabbat. "...for it is the source of blessing; from the beginning, from aforetime, it was chosen; last in creation, first in G-d's thought. Come, my Beloved, to meet the Bride; let us welcome the Shabbat!" |
