The Two 2 Weeks to Purim Countdown Havel Havelim

cross-posted on Shiloh Musings

Chodesh Tov! This week's Parshat Shavua, Torah Portion of the week is פְקוּדֵי Pekudai, Keep Accounts, so calling this edition of Havel Havelim a "countdown" does make sense. Also Judaism is full of numbers and counting; no doubt that's why Jews are considered as being good at business, nu?

At present Blog Carnival is "down" again, so all of our communications will be via our facebook page until further notice.  You can also email me  shilohmuse at gmail dot com.  Next week's host is Esser Agaroth; please send your posts/links and any you see that fit the guidelines to esseragaroth@gmail.com. Havel Havel is THE international Jewish blog carnival and has been going on for over a decade.  It's weekly and posted either before or after Shabbat, depending on the convenience of the host blogger.

Please read, comment and share the carnival, round-up, and all of the various links, thanks.

I don't know about you, but I have a busy week, so no more chitchat.  On with the show.  Please remember that I may not agree with the content of the various posts.  Each blogger is responsible for his/her own posts. Quite a few were sent in by their readers and not the bloggers themselves, and I found the rest. To guarantee your blog's inclusion, you must send your links to the host of the week.

And as my norm, I'm just posting the titles, embedded with the links so click and enjoy.
