shabbat – My Jewish Mommy Life

The Jewish holiday of Shabbat is a holy spiritual and joyful day and I wanted to share 10 facts about Shabbat with you. Shabbat Shalom!

For my final episode of my Summer Shabbat series I’m sharing my best advice for hosting an elegant formal Shabbat dinner. I walk you through my (easy!) Shabbat dinner menu, and show you some tips and tricks for creating an atmosphere to welcome guests into your home. The Jewish value of hachnasat orchim (welcoming guests) is a beautiful tradition and mitzvah that is especially meaningful on Shabbat. Thank you SO much to Annieglass for letting me showcase some of their gorgeous servingware in my home for this video.
