SHABBAT PREP Friday Routine When I’m Off From Work

[@emmamarkwell9130]

Love watching you.It brings back so many memories.When i was a little girl we live next door to a wonderful Jewish family and I remember the meat pies and Matzah Ball soup.Good memories.We loved that family .I am 75 years old now.We had the Jewish family on one side and Italians on the other side.Wonderful memories.

[@michelehays1974]

Your videos are wonderful! While I am not Jewish, I love the culture and cooking and feel sad that I didn't grow up in such a supportive community. Thank you for being so kind to share your prep with all of us :)

[@SonyasPrep]

Oh so sweet, thank you for watching

[@jillclark3630]

You and I are so much alike, except you’re a devout Jew and I’m a devout Christian. But you love your family enough to spend time making beautiful Shabbat meals, and I try to cook beautiful Sunday meals for my family. You work hard to keep your home immaculate, and so do I. There’s more that is similar than different. I’m so glad I found your channel. By the way, your bread is beautiful!

[@SonyasPrep]

We are all absolutely more alike than different.

[@jillclark3630]

@@SonyasPrep I’m so glad that you see that as I do. Blessings to you and your beautiful family.

[@pennysmith6657]

I love your channel because you document what an incredible amount of skill and planning goes into domestic tasks. This work ( let's face it) is undervalued. What struck me was in your other video how you mentioned that you do your lists during YOUR lunch hour at work. You don't even get that hour to rest. You are doing a great service showing the world what it takes to run a household.

[@michellehouston91]

I grew up in NY, the Bronx to be exact...I was bused to a jr high school in a Jewish neighborhood ...I took a home economics class and the first thing they taught us to make was mazta ball soup... I've been hooked on it ever since...I make it when I'm under the weather and my grandchildren love it...everything looks so yummy Sonya...I look forward to your videos ❤

[@gretap3917]

Home economics such a wonderful thing all kids should learn on their curriculum, sadly no teaching of this in regular school.

[@mkeegan3205]

You should try adding a few drops of hot sauce and some fresh squeezed lemon juice to your matzo ball soup. I got this “trick” from a Hispanic waiter in a Greek diner. I do like to make my own matzoh ball soup at home. I generally use the Streitz mix, and I use plain club soda, which makes the balls a bit more fluffy. I like my matzoh balls on the small size, so I use a small ice cream/cookie scoop, which works fine. I think I see some matzoh ball soup in my kitchen this weekend…..

[@brendalapeyrouse2174]

You truly amaze me! The dishes you make are outstanding, worthy of any restaurant.

[@SonyasPrep]

I am flattered thank you Brenda

[@articufixrubin3106]

As amazing as your Shabbat prep was- I was delighted that you got to spend one on one time with your son. He must have been so proud of his contribution. You are an amazing mother and role model!

[@francisconsole3892]

An RN, and an accomplished chef too.

[@LauraGonzalez-iv8qs]

When I was young and i learned how to make chicken soup from my grandmother after she boiled the chicken and seasoning she took it out of the pot and put the pot in the refrigerator for a few hours all the grease would rise to the top and then she would skim it out I always remember those little things when i make my soup😊

[@kcloufarm]

Memories of cooking with my grandmother are precious. Thanks for sharing yours.

[@ItsMeHello555]

I’m only a part of the way in, and I must comment on your son whipping that dough around like a pro already! Lol. What a gift to him, and what a gift he will be to some blessed woman one day! Good job, momma! Love your videos and blessings on you and your family. ❤️

[@jacquelynannehoward]

Your son is adorable, and a blessing to you and your family. Great job on the Challah little man.

[@VeganPrepper]

My kids always have sat on the counter to help. I actually found it super helpful because they weren't all over the place touching things they weren't supposed to touch. They could wash hands once and then be on the counter helping and it was SO much easier for me. They seemed to focus better, too, and they weren't in the way of drawers wherever they were standing on stools or chairs. Anyway, that's my two cents. Counter kid prep for the win!

[@mariasirico7365]

Sonya I went to a bbq this past week and I have to say I spent a lot of time talking about you; how you manage your day to day life such a busy mommy who is hands on with your beautiful children and yet you manage to make delicious meals everyday I told them you have to watch her u tube and I’m sure they will. Love from my home to yours !0

That’s so sweet of you, thank you Maria.

[@marciawatson7442]
