(Submitted by a frequent user of the ShalomBoston.com food page):
For the second year, the biggest hit at this year's sedar were Jamie's Mini Potato Kugels! 100-plus minis were served with the meal, in a basket, in place of the traditional kugel in a 9X13 casserole dish. They disappeared!
The little grandchix, as well as the adults, kept "stealing" them from the basket even before I had the chance to bring them to the food table. They simply couldn't wait to pop them in their mouths.
In addition to the standard mini-muffin silicone forms/pans, I found heart-shaped muffin forms. As you can imagine, they were a big hit too. What a fun and delicious way to express love!

You can even choose to look at specific categories of events, such as those for children or for families. For example, in March in these 2 categories there are currently more than 25 events, including several Shabbat and Passover programs, a baseball clinic, a Junie B. Jones show, a concert with Ben Rudnick and Friends, several open houses, and more. The SB Calendar is the most comprehensive local calendar of events online. We post items daily, so check it frequently to see all that is going on.
