- In this video I will take you along for a week in my life as an Orthodox Jew. In this week in the life (WITL), I will take you along as I clean those, homeschool the kids, and deal with the ups and downs and surprises and curveballs of my week as we gear up for Shabbat.
Hello and welcome! My name is Chana, I’m married to my best friend, and we have three wonderful children together. We also happen to be Orthodox Jews and we homeschool our kids. This video is a sneak peek into our daily lives :) You can see how this particular Jewish homeschool mom sets up her days, rolls with the punches, and gets it all done. Thanks for watching!

Got to love the birds talking in the garden this morning. Gift of God.
I love the birds we have in our neighborhood! Especially the chickadees :) Their song always makes me smile :)
I’m not Jewish but I love watching your videos - you have such a joyful and wholesome energy and I feel like that’s so rare these days!
Thank you so much!!!
Mahalo for the peek into your week, so very down-to-earth and glad your baby is feeling better
Thank you so very much :)
Homeschooling works for your family and that is good..but the same things you do at home I also do with my son and he is in public school…so all the nature the poetry is also done on a daily basis….I also believe in bedtimes because i believe proper rest is important for learning and almost everything because I can’t function tired..your videos are very informative to watch it shows a different perspective😊😊😊😊
Oh I love Edward Tulane.....so precious. And your son is a cutie. And yes Chocolate chip cookies are good for what ails you!! Our grandson had a fever virus for about a week!! So worrisome. Loved seeing your busy days....
Edward Tulane and chocolate chip cookies were the highlights of my week! So glad your grandson is better :)
I love watching your videos. Studying to become Jewish. Your videos have so much info.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m so glad my videos are so helpful for you!
Glad your dtr is ok. The cookies and the muffins look yum!!
Thank you
Really enjoying your videos 🙂. My son was diagnosed with type one diabetes at the age of four, he’ll be 18 in June! Thank you for your sharing your week and yay that your daughter is ok ❤️
My son was diagnosed at four also! Thank you for your kind words and I’m so glad you are enjoying! Have a great week!
I love dehydrating foods! When canning tomatoes, I use the skin and left over pulp to make tomato powder. I also have dehydrated mushrooms and mushroom powder, celery powder, potatoes, and lots of other goodies!
Oh I never thought of that with the skins! I’ll try that! What do you use the tomato powder for?
@@jaroffireflies I make tomato paste, put it in soups and stews for flavor and as a thickener, and you can make instant tomato soup with hot water and spices!
@@coopie624 amazing thank you
Just started this video, but I know I am going to love it anyway. 😆
Thank you! 😁😁😁
I would love you see more about the dehydrator meals! My parents have done some dehydrating, but never with the idea of making it a meal later.
You'll see an update after our backpacking trip! I will be rehydrating the meals on the trip and I'll show at least some on a video update :)
Really enjoyed the video 💙
Glad you enjoyed!
This was a really cool video. Loved the snippets of your week.
Thank you!
Loved this video!
Thank you so much!!! 💜😊
I have the same dehydrator and love it for veggies and fruit. Never tried meat,have to do that. Have a lovely week.
It dehydrated the meat so well! I am hoping to try beef jerky next :)
New subscriber! Enjoying all your videos!
Welcome! I’m so happy you are here 💜
I need to know what you were doing with the cookie cutter! Is this some kind of life hack I need when I'm baking? I love that you found a gluten-free, dairy-free cookie recipe! I'm sure it feels good to bake things that taste good and feel good for your whole family!
I saw it on another you tubers video, right after the cookie comes out, you swoosh the cookie cutter around the cookie while it’s still super soft and it makes them all nice and round without lumpy uneven sides. It’s my new favorite cookie hack!
Love love love this video, I am so glad your daughter is better. Can you tell me which curriculum you use especially for Hebrew? Thank you so much
Thank you so much for watching and for your kind words! I have a homeschool playlist that will answer your questions. In particular look for the curriculum pick videos: ruclips.net/p/PLqxZU_RTv3pvPu--yWZOCygxii8hjK75A
Ha! I know that Endo office well.
Yup 😂 you do!!!
Thanks for another weekly vlog......look forward to them very much.........
In thecimm9rtal words of Picard.......Make it so!
(Just don't let Q know or the Frengi's!)
🤣🤣🤣 I love the geeky references your comments so often bring 😁😁😁
@@jaroffireflies lol....
Moi?! A geek?! What, pray tell is a Geek?!
One is normal I'll have you know dear girl, it's everyone else that isn't!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@tracyl1368 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💜💜💜💜💜💜
@@jaroffireflies quick question did you ever watch Farscape?
One of my favourites.......not suitable for kids though!
Just rewatching Babylon 5 and Farscape........will be watching Serenity again before the end of the year too!
@@tracyl1368 I haven’t watched that yet, but I have heard it’s really good :) Right now I don’t have any movie services but I’ll check it out next time I re-up Netflix!
Maybe you can give us a tour of all of you and your husbands Jewish books? Like Gemara and that stuff
Such a cool idea! Do you mean a tour of what the books look like on the inside? Or the particular books on our shelves?
Really enjoyed this video! Does your son always wear his kippah?
Yes, my boys wear them all the time except when they are sleeping (though my toddler likes to sleep with his) 😊 sometimes they forget but they put it back on after a reminder. Traditionally a boy starts wearing it at 3. Check out this video where I talk about it: ruclips.net/video/dLRJA10Slvg/видео.html
I have a sick/disabled child who occasionally has issue with blood sugar because of her TPN administration. So I watched your video on managing your son’s type 1. I was curious to know if anything has changed for him or you since you recorded that video. 💜
We are still managing him the with the same medications and equipment. Thankfully he is very healthy and his diabetes is well managed :) So no major changes. We do tweak dosage all the time of course as he grows.
I had to go for a procedure today at the hospital. It got me thinking ..as an Orthodox Jew, can you go to any hospital and have Any procedure done by any Dr? If you had to stay in the hospital, would you just order a Kosher meal?
Yes I can have any procedure done that I need by any dr that I choose. Not all hospitals offer kosher meals, but I would still be able to eat.
I've never seen that tool you used to make the cookies more uniform. What is it called?
It’s just a round cookie cutter! I saw it in another video and it’s my favorite cookie hack now :)
@@jaroffireflies That's a cool hack! Thank you.
@@_tardigrade you’re so welcome
Hey! I love your videos! I am Jewish and your content is amazing, keep going, Please reply!
God bless!
I am so glad you are enjoying my videos! Thank you so much for watching and for commenting! I am so glad you are here :)
Hi Chana, hope you and your family doing well. Just a question. In some of your videos I saw you doing Netilat yadayim, but I guess you were reciting something else than Modeh ani, I know it's such a random question but If it's OK I want to ask what you were reciting.
Love.
Sure! When I wash hands in the morning I recite the hand washing blessing. Modeh ani is said as soon as I wake up, so I never film that :)
@@jaroffireflies thank you! It's so interesting to me. Because I recite modeh ani before I wash my hands.
@@idab2605 yes, I do too :)
The cookies look good. Did you publish your receipe? I am type 2 diabetic. Having issues with my blood sugar. Hope your daughter is feeling better!
Thank you! No, I haven’t published the recipe anywhere yet. So sorry you’re having blood sugar issues! Thankfully my daughter is all better and back to her normal self 💜
Where do you get those snoods(?)?!
I buy head coverings at a lot of different places, but the snoods mostly come from Uptown Girl Headwear. Love her stuff! She's on Etsy and she has her own website.
I'm 27 and a PhD student, but I don't suppose you'd want to adopt this coeliac Jew too? You seem such a lovely mother ^_^
Aw 💜 Thank you!!!!
What kind of vacuum do you use for the floors ..looks light and easy
It is! It’s a dyson.
@@jaroffireflies thank you for answering and for all your great videos...I enjoy each one
@@jenniferlawrence9652 you are so welcome and thank you!
Also how do you reheat food on Shabbat?
We use a crock pot or a hot plate :) The recipes we make for Shabbat are all ones that reheat easily and well.
@@jaroffireflies thank you! That’s very helpful! I’m in the middle of converting to Judaism and so far I just use the stove but it feels disconnected from tradition to me.
@@HonorSocietyRebel best of luck on your journey! I’m so glad my videos can be helpful to you. I converted about a decade ago myself
Did you know today is National cookie day!!!!!!
Love that!!! No, I did not know!
it sucks when your kid is sick. you wanna do everything to make them feel better.
So true! She was such a trooper though :) She slept a LOT, so she really didn't need much. I am so glad she is all back to her normal self now!
Is that vacuume a shark?
It’s a dyson
