Port Elizabeth holds Great Big Challah Bake

OWN CORRESPONDENT

The group was led by Robyn Smookler, who went down from Joburg for the event. The excitement of mixing and stirring was palpable as the kids in particular got stuck into the process.

In celebration of Mitzvah Day in November, attendees were also asked to contribute to the UJW’s appeal for firefighters and their families in the greater Port Elizabeth area in the form of bottled water, lip ice, clothing, and dry goods.

Each baker went home with prepared dough and a recipe, an apron, a money tin for home chesed (kindness), and a whole lot of happy memories and learning.
