Yes I am embracing the food, since my wife and I are foodies from the word go we are wanting to try and do a traditional Kosher styled meal. I am southern Baptist so I do not think I will be jumping the fence anytime soon but I think it is wonderful that I have a Jewish lineage. And buying another set of cookware for kosher cooking is really not out of the realm because I think you can never have too much cookware. Not that I am gong to run out and do that but I love spending time in the kitchen so it is no different than my toolbox in the garage I have plenty of things in there that I only use once or twice if that.
But yes I would love to fix a traditional meal (dishes) to say I did and to celebrate my heritage, and the brisket sounds wonderful!! YUM!!!
