Living Inspired by Sandy B

We all have moments of inspiration. It's what we do with those moments that can be impactful and transformative. Since arriving in Israel, I've been inspired by Israel, its history, its people and its unique vibe. I'm fascinated by Jerusalem, its breathtaking architecture, diverse population and her spiritual nature. It’s our city of gold that has touched my soul, filling me with spiritual fulfillment, excitement and inspiration to cross the threshold of creativity.

Within my blog @Living Inspired, I will be sharing with you what I'm passionate about, beautiful tablescapes, design tips and so much more. Living inspired allows us to live a happy and more fulfilled life. Through my blog, I hope to inspire you too.

Mimona - A Celebration of Faith
5 April 2020
Growing up in a Moroccan home, I have fond memories of going from house to house on Mimona night celebrating with family and friends. Its an upbeat evening filled with happiness celebrating the end of Pesach, the return of eating chametz and recognizing all the blessings and abundance in life. Over the years, my kids have come to look forward to the fun filled post Pesach celebration. This ...
