Ginger Carrot Soup
When soup season arrives, I like to make soups that are simple to make yet bursting with both flavor and nutrients. This was my first time making this soup, and I can happily say it will not be my last.
Begin by peeling and prepping all the vegetables to ensure a smooth cooking process. Heat a large stockpot over medium heat and add olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the onions and sauté for about 8 minutes or until softened.
Stir in the crushed garlic, followed by the sliced carrots, sweet potato, and ground ginger. Mix everything well.
Next, add the apple cider vinegar, honey, remaining spices, and water. Stir to combine, then cover the pot and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 45-55 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
Allow the soup to cool slightly before blending. Use an immersion blender to purée the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a food processor fitted with the S-blade attachment and blend it in batches. If the soup seems too thick, add water to reach your desired consistency. For a sweeter taste, add more honey.
Store the soup in the refrigerator or freeze for later use.

It's that time again to binge on movie trilogies or watch something new during the holiday season. Create something new. We are onto the last two weeks of fall as trees stretch their barren arms and fingers to the sky. A hush hovers over the land.
Coca Cola Polar Bears with a smile.
Hot chocolate with a loved one to close the day
while it snows, and snows outside. Let it snow
and snuggle closer.

This cake is a basic vanilla cake with a twist of mocha swirled in. It’s the perfect cake to pair with a cup of coffee or tea. It has become a tradition in our home to make a marble cake (read “marble” as “mabul,” meaning “flood”) in honor of Parshat Noah, which is only a week away.
Preheat your oven to 170°C (350°F).
In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients, except for the mocha swirl, and mix well – an electric mixer works best for this step. Set aside 1 cup of the batter by transferring it into a smaller bowl. Pour the remaining batter into a greased bundt pan.
To the reserved 1 cup of batter, add the coffee and cocoa powder, mixing until well combined. Slowly pour this mocha mixture over the vanilla batter in the bundt pan, making a complete circle.
Using a dull knife, gently swirl the mocha batter into the vanilla batter to create a marbled effect, being careful not to over-mix, so the swirls remain visible.
Bake the cake for 50 min. to 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely before inverting the bundt pan to remove it. Shake gently if necessary.
For the icing: Mix the glaze ingredients in a small bowl until the glaze is thick and opaque. Adjust the consistency by adding water (if it’s too thick) or more sugar (if it’s too thin). Use a spoon to drizzle the glaze over the cake, letting it cascade down the sides.
For a decorative touch, use a potato peeler to create chocolate shavings from a bar of dark chocolate and sprinkle them over the top.
