SOUTHWEST ORANGE More than 100 women gathered at the Rosen JCC Thursday, Nov. 10, for the Chabad of South Orlando's Mega Challah Bake. The women were all given the ingredients necessary to make dough for challah bread, a special Jewish braided bread eaten on Sabbath and Jewish holidays. They also enjoyed a soup and salad buffet as they made challah and new friends. The Rosen JCC's event ran simultaneously with the challah bake at the Roth Family JCC in Longwood.
