Traveler The knish has its roots in Eastern Europe and is particularly associated with Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine originated in the Pale of Settlement, a region within the Russian Empire where Jews were permitted to reside. Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants brought the knish with them to the United States. The first knish bakery in America, Yonah Schimmel's Knish Bakery, opened in New York City in 1910

Center for Jewish History & Theater
May 6 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 59 °F
We went to the Center for Jewish History for the Anne Frank Exhibit that was incredibly done as they rebuilt the Anne Frank house as well as told the detailed story of the Frank family and the story of the World events "before" and "after". In addition we spent a few hours at the Ackman & Ziff Family Genealogy Institute and The Wittien Coloman Reference Services Division there and the YIVO Institute exhibit (we had heard the CEO of Yivo speak last week at a Holocaust event at Chapman in CA).

After "decompressing" we went to Broadway and theater. We had a wonderful time with the music of Alicia Keys at Hell's Kitchen!Read more

There were about 30 different rooms to "experience" with ALL SENSES. All different and all wonderful for different reasons: DETOX, RELAXATION, RESTORE, REFRESH and REVIVE!!!!!! There was signage, and instructions outside each room, with scrubs, lotions and other items that were matched with that room. Here are some of the rooms. We also did two treatments: foot and eye treatments.Read more

New York "Scene" & Broadway Sessions
May 8 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 61 °F
Tom Otterness, an American "PUBLIC" sculptor, has works in parks, plazas, subway stations, libraries, courthouses and museums around the world (notably in the Life Underground in the 14th Street – Eighth Avenue New York Subway station). Lee took us on a "tour"!

Maybe Happy Ending is a South Korean one-act musical following the life-like helper-bots, Oliver and Claire, who discover each other in Seoul in the late 21st century and develop a connection that challenges what they believe is possible for themselves, relationships, and love. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing the cast (see photos) of this award winning show (OK< they were the cast but the cast was there to hear them as they were all the understudy)!Read more
Traveler All these photos indicate a big night of fun with good entertainment.

The Frick and Central Synagogue
May 9 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 54 °F
We spent the morning with Lee and then off to The Frick where we met Jane and enjoyed the wonderful "new" Frick Collection (it was closed for a five year renovation and expansion of the area allowing in the public).

Then we, once again, had an opportunity to spend the evening in our favorite NYC place, Central Synagogue. We had an opportunity to see and chat with Rabbi Andrew, Rabbi Ari and Cantor Jenna, as well as welcome a new Rabbi Aaron and a new Cantor Beth, both of which we watched grow as interns at Central. A beautiful and meaningful Service and sermon.Read more
