Dearest Bubby's Kitchen Noshers,

The moment has arrived and its bigger than an ess-a-bagel poppy loaded with whitefish and the works...
The Official Bubby's Kitchen Hits NY Kickstarter Campaign has been launched and I am asking you all for your help.

I am seriously #blessed (I did it - first time ever usage of #blessed) to have had your support in telling my Bubby's story around the country over these last seven years. The opportunity I have now to perform the show in NYC April 28-30 and finally bring in theatrical industry professionals and a broader audience of theatre goers and is one that I have been working towards for so many years, and I really need your support!

So, if you love the story of Bubby's Kitchen, if you feel that the central theme of family, love, legacy, and survival touches your heart and you want it to reach a larger audience, and even if you just love stuffed cabbage on a cold winter's night, please consider donating to this Kickstarter campaign and sharing the link with your own friends, families and networks. You'll not only be helping me raise the funding needed to produce this production, but you'll help me in spreading the word about the show which is just as important.

And gifts! Did I mention gifts...? Should you donate, you'll be the recipient of some serious Bubby's swag...
So check out the K ickstarter Campaign link right here and help me bring Bubby's Kitchen to the Big Apple and shmear the town with lox and love!

In Gratitude

Dearest Bubby's Kitchen Noshers,

Today is an incredible day of celebration in Bubby's Kitchen because today my hero, an inspiration to me and so many others, Bubby Judith Ginsburg, turns 91 years young!

A little bit about Bubby:
Bubby Judith Ginsburg was born Yudis Kosczzanska on January 6, 1925 in Lida, Poland (now Bellarus.) One of five children, four girls and one boy, Judith was the only member of her immediate family to survive the Holocaust. Judith survived the war by living and fighting in the forest as a member of both the Raschinsky and Bielski Paritsan units. In 1945 she married Motke Ginsburg, also a Partisan who fought in the Russian unit, Iskra. They spent four years in Ferenvald, a Displaced Persons camp in Germany where they had their first two children, Howard and Riva. Judith and her family immigrated to Troy, NY in 1949 and had two more children, Fran and Sheri. There they began a new life focusing on creating a beautiful and vibrant family. Now a permanent resident in Coconut Creek, Florida, Judith is the proud Bubby to ten grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren, the newest one was born JUST YESTERDAY! (Another major mazal tov!)

Bubby is featured today on the Jewish Partisans Educational Foundations FB page in honor of her birthday, you can check it out here

If you want to write a Happy Birthday message to Bubby yourself, post onehere on the Bubby's Kitchen Facebook page and they'll all be read to her tonight at her birthday dinner!

And lastly, the other big news on the street is that Bubby's Kitchen is-a-coming to New York City April 28, 29, and 30! For more information and to purchase tickets click here!

Sending lots of love and best wishes for a wonderful 2016!

xoxo Shira
