10th of Av - Friday in Israel

I'm grilling chicken and blogging at the same time. Hope I don't get anything on the keyboard...

OK people...I'm done with the chicken and done with blogging today - must get ready for shabbat. Shabbat Shalom - a quiet a peaceful shabbat to all (except Nasralla, who I hope gets bombed to hell). Next round up - Motzei Shabbat...

Bye!

  3. Shabbat Shalom, Jameel! And every day is a good day for Israel-- some are tougher than others-- but as long as we can still call it Israel, it's a good day.

    And there will NEVER be a day when we can't call it Israel again.

  6. Hey, I'm grilling the bird tomorrow. What's your technique, other than to keep the PC off the grill?

  7. I stayed on Kibbutz Nir Am when I did Volunteers for Israel. Thankfully the only thing close to danger we had were a few scorpians in our bathroom.

    It's just breaks my heart to hear all this bad news.

  8. I want to hug the guys who did the Nasrallah song (tzniusly, of course) - I've played it about a thousand times (yes, even during the 3 weeks. I don't consider it frivolous!).

    We'd be grilling, too, but we're having vegetarians over for dinner. *snif*
