Matzah Brei and Timbrels, A taste of Deliverance, and beginning the Omer count!!



In Your love You lead the people You redeemed;
In Your strength You guide them to Your holy abode.
Exodus 15:13

The seven (or eight) days of Passover pass by so quickly.   I am never quite ready to go back to "leaven"  until another week or so after that!   If you still have matzah, I invite you to make Matzah Brei!! Do you know Matzah brei?  A divine comfort food that is a little like "french toast", but with matzah!!  It will be something you can try while at home, and it will give you a taste of deliverance when topped with Charoset and Yogurt, for a special Passover ending to top off and round up the holiday.  Thankfully when one holiday of the LORD "ends" another is already beginning, and that is especially so at Passover, as we start counting the days, or 7 weeks, up to "Shavuot" in expectation.  These are the days which led up to the giving of the Torah at Mt. Sinai, and the pouring out of the Holy Spirit in the Upper Room when the disciples would have also counted up to that day in great expectation.   The counting started at the second night of Passover,

Tonite we count the eighth day of the Omer.

In my Challah -cast this week I go out with my timbrels and Praise the LORD with the tambourine before heading inside to make the Matzah brei!!  Is there a connection between the two??  I invite you to take up your timbrels, to make Matzah brei,  and to watch the "Challah-cast" this week!!




Blessings and Love,
Shayndel (and Joanne's Challah-cast Channel!)

  1. I'm familiar with the matza brei, and it is indeed what you say it is: "a divine comfort food".
    As for the video clips with the tambourine and the making of the matza brei - what can I say? You are a natural. I suspect you have some previous experience with appearing on the screen (maybe as dancer).
