If you’re tired of baking sourdough bread and have finished streaming the latest offerings during quarantine, why not live vicariously through the characters of “The Marvelous Mrs. Masiel?” Amazon Prime’s award-winning comedy about the rise of Jewish stand-up comedian Midge Masiel is finding new ways for its audience to engage during COVID-19. While it’s no Maisel Day, and the cast is already re-watching season 3 during “Maisel Mondays,” mega fans can still find creative ways to keep the show in their hearts from the safety of their homes.
Make your quarantine more marvelous with the help of Midge.
Cook up classics
Make Ashkenazi delicacies that will make your bubbe’s kvell. Fans on Instagram can find Shirley Maisel’s noodle kugel recipe and Midge’s famous brisket —which is similar to the recipe found in “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” novelty pink Haggadah. There’s also a recipe for potato latkes proving that fried potatoes are no longer just for the festival of lights, they are also for quarantine.

Craft a cocktail
If you are going to lose track of time, do it with a cocktail in hand. Make a Glam Gimlet with lime juice and gin, or the Maisel Manhattan topped with a cherry. Whether you’re giving a L’chaim in honor of the first responders or simply getting through another week, please remember to drink responsibly.

Burn off your troubles
If you’re feeling lethargic, turn on your favorite “Maisel” episode and follow along to “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Exercise Challenge.” Is Joel watching the kids? Do 10 jumping jacks. Does Susie say “Tits up?” Ten pushups. You’ll be toned and entertained in no time.
