The Flight Delay That Changed Two Lives Forever
Meaningful People
Shushy and Ben Turin — better known as Cooking in Heels and Eating in Flats — share the incredible story of how fate, faith, and a delayed EL AL flight brought two unlikely souls together. What began as an innocent Wi-Fi request at an airport turned into a 12-hour conversation that changed both their lives. From Shushy’s Brooklyn upbringing and strict seminary world to Ben’s yeshiva years in Israel and dreams of making Aliyah, their paths seemed worlds apart — until divine timing proved otherwise. Through heartbreak, family resistance, and unexpected miracles, they discovered that love isn’t about fitting into a box — it’s about creating your own.
