Chag Purim Sameach


So, today and tomorrow is the Jewish Feast of Purim, which Mordecai instituted as a perpetual feast for the Jews and their allies! This is found in the Book of Esther (funnily enough!), if you want to know more about it, read it there! Since I heard about this, I have loved the traditions surrounding it, i.e. drowning out Haman's name, and sending "Purim goodies" to people. Yesterday, I made some "Hamantashen" (pictured above) (otherwise known as "Haman's ears!" or "Oznei Haman") + they're really yummy!:)
Happy Purim, people!
