Almost Pesach!


Look at the lovely etrogs!

Oops! Wrong Holiday!

Yes, those will be perfect for Succot, but they're not from my tree, so they're not for me.

Let's get back to Pesach...
OK, maybe not almost, but it's in only two months. It's time to start emptying out the freezer. Buy less and use what's left.

When the house was full, I'd start the routine around Purim, which is exactly a month before Pesach, but now it's just me and my husband. And we should be eating less, not more.

I should have started the inventory a month ago, since this fridge's freezer is larger than the old one was.

In the meantime, let's do some visiting...

First let's see the Orange Gallery; there was lots of talent in Gush Katif.

I'm not the only one taking walks; Sarah is, too.

Marallyn vents a bit. Her dream sounds nice.

Anshel's Wife writes about the effect a canceled wedding has on them and others.

Cosmic X gives Katzav a chance.

Soccer Dad writes about a football couple inducing the birth of their baby, so dad could play ball.

Jameel tells us one of those wonderful "only in Israel" stories. Yes, our people are wonderful, it's just the politicians...

And one more for tonight, schmoozED writes about the different ways we relate to the Bible. Why don't Jews value it more?

good night!

Actually Tu B'shvat and an Ethrog go together. To see the prayer to be said on Tu B'shvat for a nice ethrog, see my Hebrew blog at
