Rosh Hashana is right around the corner – and I don’t know about you, but for me, this time of year can be a leetle bit stressful!
Sometimes, I just need to get.away. Enjoy a few moments of silence – when no one is asking me to make them a snack or braid them a challah or invite them to a meal!
Ideally, those moments will feature either a cold glass of white wine – or a steaming hot cup of tea.
It’s my version of “Calgon, take me away”!
And since I love you all so much – and since I’m guessing I’m not the only one that needs a little break during these hectic days leading up to Rosh Hashana – I’m super excited to treat you to this fun giveaway!
Two lucky Kosher on a Budget readers will each win a $50 gift card to Jwines.com – my new favorite online store with just about every imaginable kosher wine on the market.
Whether you’re looking for rare and high end or inexpensive and blue (aka the Baron Moscato!), JWines.com has you covered. And from now until September 6th, you can save 10% off your Jwines orders when you use the coupon code kosherbudget at checkout.
Of course two lucky reader will get their own $50 gift card for super splurging on their favorite vinos. (And yes, gift cards can be used toward shipping, so no out of pocket costs for my winners!)
Now, sure, you can use these gift cards to buy some Rosh Hashana wine to serve at your table – or to bring as a gift for a host. But I won’t judge if you decide to squirrel a bottle or two away for yourself!

I destress by having some alone time- to read a book or watch a movie- even if for only 15 min it makes such a difference!

I’m a subscriber. You want to know how I de-stress prior to YT? De-stress? No such luck. I’m in freak out mode until I light candles. And it’s already started.
I de-stress by playing on the computer, hanging out with my kids or taking the dog for a long walk. Sometimes I run away from everything to hang out with my mom.

I de-stress by buying or borrowing a new Jewish novel, putting my feet up and reading over a cup of coffee and something sweet. I already subscribe to your newsletter and am very grateful for it!
I let my husband the chef do the cooking. Then, when I finish scrubbing the pots and cleaning up his mess, I chill out by baking a chocolate cake, eating a few spoonfuls of batter, and going out to the track for a nice, long run.
I collapse on the couch and surf the internet or watch a show…anything mindless.

I de-stress by planning ahead and booking time in my prep schedule to spend non-prepping time with my husband, even if it’s just a quite walk by the river.
Sometimes I’ll pick myself up a sefer on the holidays to dip into once it’s begun.
I subscribe to your newsletter, and I love getting it each day. Thanks for all the hard work you put into it!
I already like your page on fb! I never thought of destressing after YomTov since YomTov is usually a destressor for me.
I relax on the couch with the laptop.
I get your newsletter.
I’m a facebook fan too.
Gift card for wine? Ahh yes! I’m already subscribed.
I find a few minutes to go shopping alone without any kids! Even 30 minutes does the trick. Sometimes I also have a small glass of wine.
I subscribe and read religiously!

I de-stressed by turning off my cochlear implants/or taking my cochlear implants off and watch TV (yes, in silent) . By doing that, I could enjoy my natural silent world that I was born into. I like to cook without my cochlear implants so I don’t have hear pots banging to each other or something spilled. (Don’t worry I have a special fire alarm that will flash to me if I have a fire in my kitchen). Wine or whiskey will also calm me but if I am too tired on that time, it is not good time to drink because it made me even more tired. (I already subscribed to your newsletter)
I don’t usually get stressed, so I haven’t found a destressing solution 🙂
I’ve made a spreadsheet (I think I just left a comment on the FB post) because being organized makes me feel better. Then I cook extra when I’m cooking anyways (like tonight)…..and THEN I have a glass (or two) of inexpensive red wine from Trader Joe’s with my dinner to relax 🙂
So obviously, I’m already a fan on FB.
