- It's Friday and I am getting ready for Shabbat! Also called Shabbos. In this video I take you through our Shabbat prep as we get ready for this important Jewish holiday as Orthodox Jews. I start my morning with prayer and breakfast, then move on to chat with you about what's going on and then to cleaning and baking for Shabbat. I also do a small grocery haul and talk about the salad that I will be making for Shabbat. While all this is going on, there is a crew at my house finishing up that last of the remodeling things while my husband works on building me a new bookshelf. When the crew leaves for their lunch break, I take you through the house to show you what they have done. Then its back to Shabbat prep and I take the kids for a walk with the dog, then a little more quick cleaning while my kids help me by setting the Shabbat table and doing a few things in the kitchen before I close out the video by showing you my Shabbat outfit and signing off for Shabbat :) Thank you for watching this full day in my life as I prepare for Shabbat! I love sharing my Orthodox life with you!
Hello and welcome! My name is Chana, I’m married to my best friend, and we have three wonderful children together. We also happen to be Orthodox Jews and we homeschool our kids. This video is a sneak peek into our daily lives :) You can see how this particular Jewish homeschool mom sets up her days, rolls with the punches, and gets it all done. Thanks for watching!

Hello and welcome! Hope you are having a great start to your week :) Coming up in the next weeks I have more Shabbat prep vlogs like this as well as the q and a videos, a try on of everything in my closet (with links!), and Thanksgiving and Hanukkah fun! What are you most looking forward to?
Looking forward to a video on Hanukkah. ❤️
@@dreaG45 oh me too! It’s early this year too, right after thanksgiving!
I think the only answer I can think of is...yes. 😁
I have a q/a topic for you but I'm not sure where to ask it. Could you share some information about an orthodox Jewish perspective of monthly women's cycles? Do you still go to synagogue, do you go to the mikva after each, do you have to have separate beds and chairs? That might be too weird to ask I'm sorry if it is. It is portrayed a certain way in the media and I want to learn an accurate portrayal
I'm looking forward to your Thanksgiving and Hanukkah celebrations!
Chana, the editing differences to your introduction, with the various angles and the billowing curtains, was simply beautiful. The renovations look terrific too.
Thank you so much!!! I really love experimenting with things when I film and I just couldn’t resist with the curtains flowing in the breeze!
Yes! So beautiful…
One of my favorite parts of these Erev Shabbat videos is the outfit reveal in the dining room. I'ts just so festive, and peaceful, and really signals that you got all the things done, and you are ready for candle lighting!
I’m so glad you like that part!!!
Chana, I wanted to thank you. My entire life, I've owned vacuum cleaners with cords, my most recent being my beloved Dyson Animal that was a Mother's Day gift many years ago. Watching you happily zooming all over your beautiful home with your cordless vac made me so jealous! It's become difficult for me now to run a heavy corded vacuum cleaner around our house, so.... for my birthday last month, I asked my husband for a cordless Dyson! And he got one for me, and I LOVE IT!!! Thank you so much for putting the idea in my head - you've made my life so much easier. All of your little tips and tricks for cleaning and shopping, etc., are a huge help for many of us. Keep doing what you're doing -- you put so much light into the world.
Amazing! I’m so happy for you! And belated happy birthday to you! And thank you for all your kind words :) I really appreciate you!!!
@Lori M,
Your husband should really love and appreciate you. All you wanted for your birthday was a cordless vacuum, which by the way benefits your husband as well.
Me, on the other hand asks for an expensive Cartier Love Bangle!!!
Also, belated birthday wishes!!!
I love that my faith makes so many small moments memorable and peaceful and each blessing reminds me that the hairs of our head are counted and we never truly walk alone. Even a hand washing blessing is sacrosanct and intentional…meaningful. Everyone needs to know that every minute is worth remembering. Thank you, Chana.
You are so welcome Michele 💜💜💜
"That's just where we're at right now" is my lifes mantra 😁 your house looks lovely
Thank you so much 💜💜💜
I can relate. My husband is a Master Carpenter, it's been 3 years and my stuff is still not done. Lol I'm a book need too. I love holding books! Have a great day!
The cobblers children have no shoes lol it’s such a thing right?!? I’m so glad I only had to wait like six months lol
Your kids are precious! I wish all children had attentive, teaching, and loving parents. You and your husband are doing such a great job. We can always pray for those children who are struggling. 🙏
Thank you so much for you kind words 💜
I love hearing about the children and the beauty of their innocent hearts 💕
Oh thank you 😊 I almost didn’t include that but I’m glad I did because one day I’ll look back and see this and I won’t forget but I’m so glad to hear that you enjoyed it too 💜
This is silly but you can get doggie snow/ rain boots. I did see a dog wearing some, IDK, I’m a cat person. Cali cat 🐈 crossed rainbows bridge 3/3 00 . We did not want a cat but we got one with the thought of rehoming her. It took about one day to fall I love with that kitty. May she RIP 💜Cali cat 🐈
@@Fran-tl6bx it’s not silly :) It’s actually a thing I’ve seen service dogs especially do. I’m so sorry for the loss of your cat ❤️
I Love that Bella Girl, gets to "Pre Clean" the dishes before they get Clean CLEAN.... You can tell that your pup is an actual part of your family, and I LOVE THAT!!
She absolutely is part of the family :)
I'm always looking for ways to get my son into books more. Thank you so much for showing the graphic novel of the hobbit. I think I'm going to go order it.
I love how you and your husband lead by example. I feel like these days it’s so important. You are so cute when you get excited about books. Watching your videos is so refreshing. You are going to raise some great kids.
Thank you so much Daphne! I cannot express enough how much I appreciate that 💜
there is such a sweet spirit around your videos x
Thank you 😊
I am so happy for for all the little finishing touch for the house, they make all the difference
It really does! I honestly had no idea what a difference it would make until it was done!
These videos just make me so happy. Shabbat is such a gift!
I am so glad! And I totally agree, Shabbat is a gift!
I've recently found your channel and love it. I've been fascinated by Judaism since my parents explained the Holocaust to my sisters & I. It took a visit to the concentration camps fully absorb the reality. Watching your videos has enlightened me. You are such a happy & strong woman. You set a good example for young women to follow, regardless of their religion.
Hello Elizabeth! Thank you so much for your kind words! I am so glad that my channel is helping you understand the Jewish people better :)
I love the fact that the kids know where the wine glasses go and where the water glasses go. You truly are "training them up in the way they should go." I continue to SO enjoy your videos Chana :)
Thank you so much Karen! I cannot tell you how much their actions made my day :)
Aw, Bella at 8:46, helping mum wash the dishes! What a good girl :)
Always :) Its her favorite job!
Hi Chana: Congratulations on the wonderful book shelves! Your hubby is a gem. 🤗 It's going to come together beautifully. I think homemaking is such a fabulous way of life, and, you do it so well. I thoroughly enjoy each and every one of your videos. Blessings to all of you! Rosemarie 💖
Thank you so much Rosemarie 💜💜💜
The small things like hardware and towel racks make such a difference but the bookshelves are a must. Book nerd here too! I am reading The Hobbit right now for the first time Chana and it is such a fun read, the journey the characters are on will be a mine (inside joke given it is about dwarves) of ideas for a school unit. My Mama heart melted for you too as it is such a joy to see that the hard work you and your husband are putting into placing hospitality, character and virtues at the heart of your home does bear fruit. Have a lovely time over Shabbat with your friends.
Thank you so much for your kind words Cate! And ohhhh enjoy reading the Hobbit!!! I am very excited to dive into the Hobbit this summer with my kids :) Shabbat was so lovely :)
The "crafter-math" ... I love it! I'm pretty good at making that kind of mess myself! 😆
😁😁😁
I’m so happy for you that your list of house “to-dos” are getting done, everything looks great. Have a wonderful weekend. Loving your colorful headscarf.
Thank you so much Kay! Enjoy your weekend too!
just finished work, what a wonderful way to wind down
Awesome! Thanks for being here :)
Your videos always lift my spirits. I needed that today. Thank you. Have a great night.
Thank you so much Cheryl! I hope you have a lovely night 💜
Dear Chana, I really enjoy your channel. I was raised in the Roman Catholic Church, and so Orthodox Judaism has always seemed mysterious.. I find your channel so interesting and your way of life appeals to my sense of what makes for a full and purposeful existence. Thank you for sharing your life with us.🌻
You are so welcome! I’m so very glad that you are enjoying:)
There was no electricity in my building (we're locked down) today. It was like the apocalypse had started, everyone was so agitated and anxious and lost lmao. I thought about how you observe shabbat every week, with no internet etc, and how you find joy and meaning in it, and it completely changed how I approached the day, and in the end it was really peaceful, fun experience, with everyone actually talking to each other.
Oh wow! I am so glad that was helpful! Wow though that's a lot to be locked down and unexpectedly have no power! I hope you are back online and back to normal today!!!
Wow! Nice video. Thanks for allowing all of us into your lovely home. It's such a nice time watching the progression of your family loving and growing and sharing your faith. Keep that spirit alive in your children to work hard on school work. They can be anything they dream. My cousin who homeschooled her children, her eldest daughter has a PhD in math from Cornell University. I wish your children all the best. See you in your next video.
Thank you so much. For you kind and encouraging words!
First, yay for sharing The Hobbit with your son! I was a late bloomer as a reader and my big sister introduced me to it when I was 13...became a voracious reader after that! Second, I would get all mushy too if my kid did something as gracious with the table setting as yours did. Well, done, Chana! We need more lovely human beings in this world! I did my part with our daughter who's 30 and one of the best people I know. Shalom
Hello and thank you for your lovely comment! Your daughter sounds like a gem 💎💖 Way to go mama!!!
You inspire me!
Thank you Betty 💜
Once again I'm thoroughly enjoying your video! I loved the circle brownie story! I chuckled at your dog pre-washing the pan and other items I'm sure! Plus all your renovation additions! Yay! I so look forward to more new videos to come! ❤
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much!!!
I always get a smile on my face when I see the notification that you have posted a new video! You are awesome and keep up the great work!
Yay! Thanks Dianne!
Bravo for your renovations . Bookshelves unit is perfect !!!! 👍👍
Thank you Sylvie!
Love it when you go shopping. All the fruit looks delicious some strange look to me. Poor baby Firefly cutting his teeth 👶👶👶💐
So glad you enjoyed!
I love watching these as I cut my peppers onions carrots for a nice soup today, thank you for allowing us into your day too, have a blessed day:)
Enjoy your soup! Sounds delicious!
Oh Chana I bet your so excited to have doors and door handles ❤❤❤ God bless! Prayers ❤
Very much 😁😁😁
Good Morning! Great starting my week with you! Loving the cooler weather here in Texas! Have a wonderful week!
Isn’t this cooler weather amazing! I’m loving having all the windows open in the afternoon!!!
I love all the renovations they are beautiful! I just love and look forward to Monday and Thursday. I so love your zest for life,family and Jewish traditions. You truly ate blessed ❤❤
Thank you so much Kristin!!!
Hi, sweet Chana! My, but I love the choice of hardware! Very striking. And your positive (yet perfectly grounded) outlook is always such a gift. Thank you for brightening my day!! 🫂
Thank you so much Debra!
Little eyes and ears are always on. ;-). Such a calm video, I'm ready for Shabbat.
Thank you Victoria 💜 I’m so glad you enjoyed
The beginning of this video with the curtains flowing was so pretty! I am a mom myself and I love how you get excited when you speak about your children,! My biggest weakness is when I hear my kids laugh, that’s the best sound! I also love how Bella was a dishwasher and at one point, she was lurking in the background, lol! As always, your videos bring me a smile! Much love! 🥰
So glad you enjoyed! Yes, my kids are my everything and I totally agree about the laugh! When they are happy so am I ❤️
Hi Chana it's nice to see the new additions to your lovely home. It's always the little things that makes a difference. I hope you and your family are well x
Thank you Fran! Yes I was surprised at what a difference it made in the feel of my home :)
That headscarf goes so we'll with your dress for shabbat. You look lovely! Hope it was a wonderful day!
Thank you Edna! Yes, it was a lovely Shabbat:)
Chana, that last outtake with the children and the dog skipping through the room brought back fond memories of my own childhood. I could imagine my mom with the same expression on her face, taking that deep breath. A true Proverbs 31:10-31 moment 💖
Aw thank you! That is such a huge compliment to me 💜
Just watching your son put the tablecloth on the table made my heart melt and I was thinking oh he’s going to make a good husband one day and I thought of my granddaughter but then we are not Jewish but he’s going to make a good husband and father
Thank you Joy 💜
Loving the bookshelf and yes it's big when you get doors put on and the door handles and yes towel rails are a must ,same problem toilet rolls just seem to disappear quickly in my home,O yes the hobbit is a brilliant read he want be able to put it down ❤🙏
All those little things have made such a big difference!
Your house is looking great! Will you be doing a proper tour and going over types of fixtures, flooring, countertops, etc? I am planning some renovations and would like some more information on some of your selections. Thanks!
I do plan to do a full home tour but I don’t know that I’d know where all the fixtures etc are from, but I’m happy to answer questions if I know the answer :)
Hi! Thanks for your video. I was watching it at the kitchen table and my 5 year old son, Avrohom Dovid came in and when he saw you on my phone he said, “I like this Mommy!” Then as he was watching it he said, “I love her!” And then at the end of your video when you were dressed for Shabbos he said, “She looks so beautiful!”
Awww thank you!!!! Your comment totally made my day!!! I just read it to my kids and they loved it too ❤️ Thank you so much for taking the time to share that with me 😊
@@jaroffireflies 😀
You have such a sweet spirit, an inner light that is so calming and peaceful. So glad I found your channel.
Thank you Suzanne :) I’m so glad you’re here too!

Thank you Chana, another insightful video. Glad to see your work is getting done. Can I borrow your husband to sort out my jome? Lol 😆
You children are a credit to you. Very thoughtful too.
😂😂😂😂 He’s been so busy that my house has sat waiting, we are thrilled to have the break that he can work on finishing our place
I love Preparation day and the Sabbath. Such a joy. My children are all grown up now and watching your children brought back sweet memories. Love your Sabbath dress, very pretty and feminine.
Thank you so much Dawn! I’m so glad this could bring back some nice memories for you!
Your house renovation is beautiful!
Thank you!
Tip on muddy 🐾 paws:
Keep a box of kiddo wipes for paws - I realise your dog is quite large but they can be trained to wait and lift paws for you one atta time to give a quick wipe. My daddy had a beloved Airedale, and he was disabled with his back, so he let him out on a lead that was in the yard and kept the end that hooked to him at the door- so on muddy days, he just kept old clothing/cloths near the door and had trained him to lift a paw up one atta time to keep him from having to bend over and struggle. ;)
“Are you making the little circle ⭕️ brownies?!”
🥰Kiddo after my own 💓- more surface area for delicious corners because a circle is ALL CORNERS!
Wipes by the door are a great idea :) thanks!
Such a beautiful home
Thank you Frankie :)
I feel you sister! Been trying to pick paint colors and decide what to do with our basement. It's "open" so you can see it from half the house, yet is dark still. Want that balance of cozy yet not dungeon. Lol. I am NOT blessed with a decorating eye. Hehe. Your house is lovely. Happy for you to get more of your things accomplished. 🤩 ps. Your green walls look to match ours in kitchen and living room!
Oh fun! That sounds like a challenging project!!!
Hi Chana, I LOVE LOVE LOVE your house! Enjoy!
Thank you! 🤗
What an AMAZING WIFE AND MOTHER YOU ARE. I so admire your commitment to living an orthodox life. As mentioned in another comment, I am a secular Jew, raised in a reformed house. Being orthodox requires a lot of work, and you do it with ease and a smile.
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
I'm so late but I had a busy day and busy weekend. My son is leaving fornthe Airforce Sunday and I am not ready. I'm so happy thatbhenus following his dreams. But I am going to miss him so much.
Please thank him for his service from me! Hugs to you mama!
I love the green colour on the walls!! 😀
Thanks Jessica!
Circle Brownies! :) (I never thought of it before. That is such a great idea.)
Isn’t it fun! He heard me call them brownie bites later and then started calling them brownie bits 😂
Thanks, Chana!💕💕💕💕
You’re so welcome 😊
Love your dress and headscarf perfectly matched
Thank you 😊
P.S. Chana, your Bella is absolutely wonderful..kiddos adorable! 🙂
Rosemarie 💖
Thank you!!!
Oh my , that Shabbat dress is so lovely ! Picks up the glow in your face , you look beautiful my dear friend , and I very much enjoy your catchup on the towel hangers etc ... life will be easier because of these small things ! Warm greetings from Karo in N. Z
Hello Karo! You’re so right, those little things will definitely make my life easier :)
You are amazing parents, amazing people and if I could choose anyone in the world to be near to, it would be you! I just love you all so much xx
Thanks Christina 😊
nothing like a good bookshelf,Gary built me one as well. The hardware looks nice in your home. Have a lovely week !
Thank you so much Judy! How lovely to have someone who can build you a bookshelf!!! Hope you are having a wonderful week also!
@@jaroffireflies Gary built it from floor to ceiling it actually opens up with a closet behind it . I am an avid reader like you & needed a place for my books
@@Judy122550 that sounds amazing Judy!!! Wow!!!
I've been waiting six years! To get my house painted inside.Six years.
Oh my I do hope you get it done soon!
The introduction are always so comfy...makes me want to sit down with a cup of tea snuggled in a blanket while watching your videos.
I am so glad you enjoy the intro :)
I’m sure the new toilet paper holder is inviting to the kids to just pull and pull. You could try putting a fun color of painters tape on the wall under the holder where you would like them to pull it down to. For example measure down to four squares length and place tape there.
That’s a great idea! I was thinking I just thinking I wouldn’t put tp in there unless we had guests 😂😂😂
PROPS on Kevita. Those are really good for the gut and they taste great. I like the lemon and ginger. I am always looking for the KOSHER symbols now....LOL...I'm feeling more than my smidgen of Jewish heritage😊
Lol I love that you are hunting for hechshers now! Lol And ya I’ve been loving the levitate flavors :) I had the ginger this morning so good!
I can just imagine how great it is to have these details finished in your home remodel. After waiting for a long time, getting things like the right door handles and towel racks must be delightful. I also love seeing my books in the bookcases. They bring a special kind of soul into a home for me.
You are so right!!! And wow what a difference it has made! i had no idea it would feel so much better in here now that things are complete :)
From one book lover to another, I love your shelves❤. Oh yeah, your house renovation a are beautiful:)
Thank you Sarah!!! I am finally going to be able to unpack my books today! My husband was up late last night sorting a lot of his books about the shelves since we have more room to spread out now, its really looking good!
@@jaroffireflies I love putting books on a shelves is relaxing, well to me anyway. I love dusting them as well, I know werid😂
@@sarahnorris872 of I basically never dust (almost lol) but shelving books is the best!
I loved Bella helping you presoak the dishes, our boxer does the same.
Isn't it the best? lol
Hi Chana. Another wonderful video as usual. I have to tell you, I literally had tears running down my cheeks when I saw your son setting the table and then putting water glasses by the places where your guest didn't drink wine. That is such a tribute to you and your husband!! You are both teaching them by example. That is the best way to teach children. My hat is off to both of you ❤️. My Bella has been tracking in mud from all of the rain we have been experiencing in Livonia Michigan
Thank you so much Claudia! These little payday moments are everything!!!
Chana..love love your Shabbat chats..plus I have drinking Pukka tea- even before I started watching your vid BUT I've expanded the flavors...their detox one is very good. BTW- have you ever thought about doing a vid with your family= Mom sibs? That would be very interesting.😍
Thanks so much for your kind words! No, I honestly hadn’t thought to do a video with my extended family on either side. Thanks for the suggestion:)
Since you have mostly hard floors you may want to check out one of the vaccuming robots, I have a shark I robot- its like a roomba it sweeps, or vaccumms my rooms everyday while I am at work. We have a dog and the shark picks up the dog hair every day. It may lighten the cleaning you do each day leaving more time for your little ones and all the fun stuff you like. It will not work on mud though.
Thanks for the suggestion!
You are a busy Mom. It is so special that your children knew how to set the table. Beautiful video. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Barb!
Kombucha has to be made with black tea so it does have quite a bit of caffeine, unfortunately. It’s really fun to make at home- your kids might enjoy it as a long term science project. When I made it, I would mix some with juice just before drinking to cut down on the caffeine concentration.
Thanks for the info! I’m looking into making it for myself
I love watching you prepare for Shabbat with a mix of love and envy. My biggest desire is not to be so alone. Thank you Chana. I can live vicariously through your videos. Shavua tov!
Thanks Heather :)
Thank you for another beautiful video. Your kids are great!
Kombucha is a lacto-fermented drink made from tea so I think probably every variety has caffeine in it. If you want to enjoy the benefits of lactofermentation without caffeine you could try water or milk kefir or foods such as sauerkraut or kimchi. Lacto-fermentation really improved my health and resolved some health issues within a week.
Lacto-fermentation is very easy to do at home if you have the time and you can makes things to your own preferences. I learned it from CZcams videos and I spend 5 minutes each day making milk kefir and have a continuous supply for only the price of the milk. I bought my first kefir grains a few years ago for £3 from eBay and I've never had to buy more.
If you ever want to try lactofermentation, you would need different grains to make water kefir than milk kefir. For kombucha you would need a SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast) and you may be able to make it with decaffeinated tea but I don't make kombucha so I don't know. Kefir grains are also a type of SCOBY and have no grain products in them like wheat, oats etc.
Oh thank you so much for the information! I’m definitely going to look into make this for myself :) I’ve really been enjoying the flavors I purchased :)
Lol, I was wondering when Chana said she was trying kombucha if she realized the caffeine content. Some of us need an extra boost sometimes, but she usually drinks herbal tea.
Your videos are so calming
I am so glad :)
My parents always endeavoured to cultivate a love for books and reading in me as well. Some of my richest memories of things we did together revolve around books and reading together.
I so love the way your kids set the table for their guests. That’s so gracious of them.
Have a wonderful week. 💐
Thank you so much Katherine! I hope you are having a wonderful week as well :)
Craftermath, I'm so going to use that! My kids do that too!
Yay for messy craftermaths!
I just got a fancy vacuum like yours to make my mom life easier and I love it!
That’s awesome! Yay!
I am not religious nor grew up in a similar environment but I wanted to express that your video style is unique and seeing your routine is inspirational because it brings a meditative spirit to me. I am also glad that it is a great opportunity to learn a different culture;to respect, to understand.
Thank you so very much!!! I really appreciate everything you said ❤️
Congratulations to you for teaching your children to do everything, not putting them in gender specific role. A lot of Orthodox or fundamental religions do this. Thanks for sharing your life.
Thanks :) We like to let our kids follow their interests, whatever those may be.
Love you house so relaxing!!
Thank you!
Loving the home renovations. My son has always loved books, it's a great escapism to be able to read. I have been out today chasing the leaves round the garden with my electric leave gatherer. We changed the clocks yesterday (in the UK), so it's pitch black by 5pm yuck. Roll on the summer. Have a great week.
Oh man! We change our clocks soon and I am NOT looking forward to it! I didn’t realize it was a thing outside the USA!
I use the littlehouseliving ooey gooey brownie recipe and when we were GF just subbed 1 to 1 GF flour and some potato starch. Super easy.
Thanks for the tip!
It’s the little things getting done in the house that makes us women so happy! So, just wait till your kids are older and you walk into their homes and you see yourself in their homes, or their hospitality, and you think, I guess i did a good job!.Love seeing the kids run through your shot. Have a great week!
❤️❤️ You’re making my mama heart happy all over again! Thank you for that ❤️❤️
hello! I just wanted to say how thankful I am for your channel, I find it so calming and informative. I've been going through a really stressful time so whenever I can I just watch one of your videos and I feel at home. Thank you for that 😊
You are so very welcome! Thank you so much for being here :)
your facinating honestly. its really hard not slamming walls of questions down. ^^
It’s so exciting to see renovations getting completed. I have to say I love the white tiles in the kitchen and bathrooms.
Thank you :) They are so hard to keep clean but I love them too lol
Your pink dress is very pretty and goes very nice with your grey head scarf xx
Thank you 😊
I really like the intro music, its a peaceful beginning to the start of your day and sets a tone - Blessed Be to you and the Ohana
Thank you so very much!!! 💜
