My kiddo heads to camp on Saturday and he’s gone for four weeks! Mom’s homemade challah was a MUST before left town.

If I’m not mistaken, I’ve created in these loaves. The rise, the deep golden color, the lovely crust. 😍

Now who do I ask for this EXACT weather and environment so the next time I make my challah they are this perfect????

“When life gave me lemons, I used them to fill other people’s baskets.”

Behind Anya’s Catering Co. and Ask Anya is a woman who understands loss not from the outside looking in — but from living it.

In August of 2023, Anya lost her mother after a long and heartbreaking battle with ocular melanoma. Somehow, she found the strength to keep moving forward, helping her daughter prepare for her bat mitzvah without their biggest supporter Then life shifted again. In early 2024, Anya’s father was diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer that had already spread to his dura. Six months later, he was gone too.

In less than a year, Anya and her siblings found themselves learning how to navigate life without either parent.

And in the middle of grief, mourning, shiva, family, food, visitors, phone calls, logistics, and the overwhelming question of “What can I do to help?” — Anya realized something.

People want to help. Families need support. But when you are grieving, even answering simple questions can feel impossible.

That is why Ask Anya was born.

Not just as a service, but as a way to care for families during some of the hardest days of their lives.

From planning and preparing beautiful trays and meals, to organizing the details families should never have to worry about while mourning, Anya steps in with compassion, discretion, and understanding. She knows the importance of privacy. She knows the comfort food can bring. And most importantly, she knows what families truly need in those moments: someone to simply handle it.

At Ask Anya, we are here for the simchas, the celebrations, the milestones — but we are also here for the heartbreak, the loss, and every life cycle moment in between.

Let us carry some of the weight so you can focus on healing, family, and being together.

With love,
Anya
