My Conversion Story Journal

March 28, 2025

I wanted to try a small piece of my challah today. I ate half a loaf. It has never been so fluffy and pull apart delicious! Too bad I can't take a loaf to dinner tonight, because even though it is kosher, it is not kosher enough to share with a Jew yet. This waiting sucks. Not being able to give freshly baked challah to my friends sucks. I love my new oven. I love my first challah bread that I made here. It is delicious and so much better than store bought! I called a non-Jewish friend to come pick up a loaf or two. I'm hoping he shows up and takes one.

It is going to be Shabbat in a couple of hours. After Shabbat ends, so will my spring break. I've enjoyed my learning this week and feel that I will be ready for next week even if (or more likely when) chaos occurs.

Have a great Shabbat.
