Kosher Food And Wine Experience
Kosher wines have improved greatly in the last 20 years.

Time To Move!
Dear Chaya,
I'm writing this to you as my children are sitting in front of a video screen. Sure I'm happy to see them safe and sound, but I worry about their sedentary lifestyle. While during the summer they are active outdoors, as soon as the winter sets in, they spend most of their free time on the couch. The truth is that they're barely moving. I know this can't be healthy. On the other hand, what kind of exercise can I offer them during the long and cold winter months? How do I get them to move off the couch?
