Making Gold-Dusted Gelt with Eliot Glazer
The other day I came across a link on Tablet to a Munchies video of comedian Eiot Glazer in a kitchen, wearing an apron and making gold-dusted Hanukkah gelt. The gelt looked really good, and Glazer’s banter was a hoot — take a look. (Start paying attention to the video close to the 1½-minute mark — trust me on this.)
By the way, upon further exploration I also found a video of Gefilteria’s Liz Alpern making apple-pear sauce for latkes. Definitely also worth a peek.

Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
