http://ayearormoreofshabbats.blogspot.com/2011/01/its-wrap-summary-of-our-year.html
Wednesday, January 5, 2011. It's A Wrap - A Summary of Our Year. Our family slowed down to celebrate Shabbat every week in 2010. We hosted 45 different families. For dinner in our home and served 166 people. The dinners included 45 unique menus. Including an entrée each week that I had never cooked before and well over 100 different recipes. Ben collected 71 cans. 8211; Jewish and not – from across the country joined. I also broke three wine glasses. And one gravy boat. And stopped the sink up twice.
