It always tickles me how close Purim and Carnival fall most years. I especially enjoy Purim because it’s the only time of year to make, and eat, various sugary goodies! One of my favourites is my Rum and Raisin Hamantaschen. Check me out making it below with my friend Daniel Saks of the Sephardic supergroup DeLeon! Check out his post “5 examples of Purim and Carnival colliding in song” for some wild Caribbean musical excursions!

For those who don’t know about Purim, a good synposis can be found here.

This year Purim begins at sundown on March 15th
