A day in my life as an Orthodox Jew and mom of 5 living in NYC. I had two events in Manhattan to attend one put together by @mother.ly and the second by @bonwellnessofficial then it was back to Brooklyn for and appointment with @shaniwigs and finished off the day at @magen_david_adom_america gala. #dayinmylife #newyork #momlife #wig #nyc

Why my Bubby, Lilly Malnik never wanted to remove the tattoo numbers on her arm that were forcibly put on her during the Holocaust. #tattoo #holocaust #bubby #grandmother

Here’s a little about why I share about my life as an Orthodox Jew online.

Come with me to visit @tourocollegeofdentalmedicine. It is one of 35 schools that makes up Touro University, and the largest university under Jewish auspices. Touro University takes great pride in balancing religious traditions with secular education and their cutting edge programs. I was also impressed with their honor code, that instills ethics and morals along with outstanding academic achievements. @wearetouro #touropartner #dentalschool #college #education

Yom Kippur just ended, and there’s one more thing we have to do before breaking the fast. Havdalah! #havdalah #yomkippur #jewish

All the food we made before Yom Kippur fast. #meal #food #yomkippur

Tonight starts Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement. It is considered the holiest day and we spend the day praying to G-d to forgive us or any wrongdoing and seal in the book of life. #yomkippur #jewish #dayofatonement #cooking

Why do we say ‘Aman’ and what does it mean. What is so funny to me is after I recorded this video and played it back, I realized that I didn’t include the pronunciation of how my family says ‘Aman’ which is more of a Yiddish dialect. We pronounce it as uh-MAIN. #aman #amen #prayer #education #religion

What is the average age most Orthodox Jewish couples get married? This ‘average’ age might also change from community to community. #marriage #jewish #bride #agegap

Why do Jewish women cover their eye when the say a blessing over the shabbos candles? #candles #shabbos #blessings #jewish

Come get ready for Rosh Hashanah with me. Rosh Hashanah is the celebration of the Jewish New Year. Let me tell you about it as I cook. #roshhashanah #newyear #jewish #holiday #cooking
