Parting of the Sea Challah for Parashat B'Shalah

I wanted to get this up for you before this past Shabbat, but alas, I was only able to get you a preview!

And Moses said unto the people: 'Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will work for you to-day; for whereas ye have seen the Egyptians to-day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. The LORD will fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace... And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.

{Exodus 14: 13-14, 21, JPS}

Parshat B'Shalah is one of the Hazz's and my favorite Torah portions.  For verse 14, he encouraged me to really give a loud chant in the Torah when Moses says "Have no fear!"  B'Shalah also has the Song of the Sea, which has a distinction appearance in the Torah.  Very cool, no?

So, we thought we'd whip up a little Parting of the Sea Challah.  We used sprinkles to make it blue, so it basically tasted like a doughnut.  It was great and really fun to make!

(Sorry for the super dark photo! That's what happens when we take photos like 15 seconds before Shabbat starts!!!!)

Sneak Preview: Parashat B'Shalah

We decided to make a Parting-of-the-Sea challah in honor of our favorite parashah, B'Shalach.  I'll update you later with the real pictures!  Why have I been so busy lately?  I miss you all!
