Reminder
Make an Eruv Tavshilin before 2nd Days of Pesach In order to prepare for Shabbat on Yom Tov, one
must designate an Eruv Tavshilin before Yom Tov. Therefore, on Thursday, April 28, erev Yom Tov, the head of the household, or designee, should set aside a baked item (like matza) and a cooked item (eggs, fish or meat). S/he should then recite the both bless-ing of "Baruch...Al Mitzvas Eruv" and the Eruv Tavshilin proclamation, both found in the Artscroll Siddur (p. 654). The foods set aside for the eruv should be saved and may be eaten on Shabbat.
An Eruv Tavshilin must be made even if one does not intend to cook on Yom Tov for Shabbat so that Shabbat Candles can be light.
