Holiday
This busy Thanksgiving week is one of a type of reflection. My sons, of whom I am very proud, have taken steps into the next portion of their lives. My prospects continue to be good with multiple projects from Meetup.com to books, to new clients and balance in life.
I thank all that have added to me being happy and healthy at this stage in my life. Have a great holiday.

Kosherfest
Yesterday was the first of Kosherfest, the premier Kosher food show and for the first time it a long while it was a good show.
The quality of product, display and general attitude is better than it has been since the show has moved back to the Meadowland from the Javits Center.
I have to put in a word for my group, Osem, Israel's number one food company.
Osem won a best in Class Award for our Pearl Couscous with Sundried Tomato and Wild Rice. As a Chef I can honestly say that this, and the rest of the products in this line are wonderful. The are simple, boil water, pour in the mix and DONE! More then that they are menu builders. Each product has solid flavors, color and texture. They are natural sides for a simple protein and fresh vegetable.
In your markets NOW!

The Shows
Yesterday I was at the International Hotel, Motel and Restaurant Show at the Javits Center in the Big Apple. The City seems to be back to speed and transportation was running.
The Show is less then it had been in the past but there were some new and interesting things. Vegetable "Caviar" was the right texture and flavor, a really good NY style fully baked bagel and of course some state of the art computer applications. It took out industry forever to catch up with technology and now we seem to be ahead of the pack. I did notice may potential glitches is many of the systems though, not connecting with standard accounting packages was a big one.
Today I am with Osem at Kosherfest in the Meadowlands Expo Center in Secacus, NJ so if you are in the neighborhood please stop by and say hello.
Pictures to follow later

Busy
So this is what happens when both of your sons become engaged at the same time and the expectation is that you will, happily, do the affairs and one is in NOLA and the other in Chicago and you are in Washington and travel 25%of the time.
Levels of Kashrut are very different for these two and I will be at KOSHERFEST Tuesday and Wednesday to tie down the details. Stay tuned for more...
