Courtney W & Matt M - MOST INNOVATIVE FOLD

Our hamentaschen are inspired by jelly tarts from The Dragon Prince! The show was actually Courtney's first sight of hamentaschen, where they were persimmon (we used apple as a substitute), but the ones on the show looked more red so we also used strawberry and grape. We watched the show on our first date and connected with the differences in the human (Matt) and elf (Courtney) cultures, much like an interfaith relationship. Courtney also made some "healthy" hamentaschen as she's participating in Lent at her churches, but she's breaking her fast for a day for Purim! ;)
