Cheesecake

Hope everyone had a nice Shavuos with a lot of good learning and a lot of good cheesecake!

Erev Yom Tov/Shabbos I was a little disappointed we didn't have cheesecake for Shavuos. My mother usually buys , but this Shavuos my mother didn't buy or make cheesecake. What kind of Shavuos is it without cheesecake!?!?!
So I decided that I was going to make cheesecake. (I've never made cheesecake before) My mother was out so it was a perfect time to make it. I knew my father was making a stop at the store, so I called to ask him to pick up a cream cheese. I then called my sister-in-law for her recipe, but she didn't answer. Right when I hung up the phone there was a knock at the door. Standing on my porch was a family friend holding a huge.....CHEESECAKE!

Hashem takes care of EVERYTHING! (even making sure we have cheesecake on Shavuos!)

P.S. We never have cream cheese in my house and on Shabbos my mother asked how come there was cream cheese in the fridge. I admitted that I bought it because I wanted to make cheese cake.
My mother smiled and said: "Well that's HP, I'm taking some of my students out to lunch in the park on Tuesday and I needed cream cheese!

Mitzvah of the Dishes

This story was submitted by a 9th grader:

My brother Gavriel went to a friends house around the corner from our house. A half hour later he had a Chavrusah. It was getting late and he wasn't coming back. We called his friends house, but no one answered. So my father asked me to go around the corner to pick up my brother. I really didn't want to because I just got home from school. I decided to do it it any way. Right before I was about to leave my mother asked me to put the dishes away. My father said I should listen to my mother first and then go. Finally after I was done the dishes I went outside and coming up the path on his bike was my brother. I didn't have to walk all the way to his friends house!

Here are a few stories:

The lunch room was locked and she was upset she had forgotten her snack. She's going to be so hungry. Right then the lunchroom door opened and out walked her friend. Devorah was able to get her snack! HP!

Forgotten Phone Call

Ok I have a little of an embarrassing story.

Starting after Pesach we have a Shiur on Shabbos afternoons for Post Seminary girls. Every week it's at someone elses house. Last week I got the speaker before I got the house. I told the speaker I would let her know where she would be speaking. Wednesday night was a crazy busy night, Baurch Hashem I got a place for the Shiur. I made a mental note to call the speaker up to tell her the location.

Well, Thursday morning unexpected plans came up and I went away for Shabbos.
Shabbos afternoon in middle of the Shabbos meal I jumped up from my seat.
"Oh my, I can't believe I COMPLETELY forgot to tell the speaker where she's supposed to be speaking. All the girls are going to show up for no reason, there won't be any speaker.How could I have forgotten."
Right after Shabbos I immediately called up the speaker.
"I'm so so sorry, I never called you."
"Oh not a problem. It was actually Hashgacha Pratis, I was out walking and I met some girls. They told me they were on the way to the Stillman's house to come to my Shiur."
