Crossing Delancey - Touch My Roots
"Half" of me, courtesy of my father, comes from Russian/German/Jewish stock. When I think of my Grandma and Grandpa Wolfsohn, I think of Grandpa's keen sense of fun and Grandma's wonderful cooking. Mmm, the lavish dinners which I later learned were religious celebrations; the matzo balls and soup; chopped liver, borscht, salami, fat garlic pickles; the sweet sesame-flavored treat halvah, and the best corned beef I've ever eaten. (Waukesha's Rochester Deli, is a very close second!)

We've a warm, welcoming place for you as well as two shows featuring some of our area's creative, talented kids!

Despite the busyness December brings, despite the sometimes familial and hidden calorie charges; both having the potential to explode their messes all over our inside and/or outside person - December is a good month. And with every passing year I'm NOT working a retail job, the Scrooginess that has been clouding my Christmases for the last couple of decades is dissipating - finally. Well, that and my purposeful determination to keep my focus on Who brought Christmas and why. Keeping joy and laughter at the forefront helps!
It Was a Dark and Stormy Night. . .
Who doesn't deliciously shiver when they hear or read those words? It's kind of creepy, yet fun isn't it?
