my calendar is from Bagel Hole and it has both Hebrew and English dates with every week’s Parasha and candle lighting time.
its one of those big ones u hang on the refrigerator. is that what u meant?
Happy to help ro66! just remember G-d is ur BEST friend, u can tell (or ask) Him ANYTHING, and He listens to e/t!
WAIT! mod 42, u r just starting to explain! dont stop now! come on tell us the story! PLEEEEASE??!!!! with a cherry on top….
msseeker, you no one can ever blame
of making your rhymes sound too lame!
you even remind me of my dear friend Lane,
a fierce little monkey no one could tame!
(yes i know that makes NO sence AT ALL but i ran out of ideas :))
im actually eating a bowl of cereal right now! lol!
Ok, i don’t get it, who is Joseph and y is e/ o on here obsessed wid him? I feel like I’m missing out on a good joke…
i didn’t know i can contact a mod!
HIIIIIII MODS!!!!!!!!!
Hiiiii!!!
also if u want to alter a gown, (and ur doin it by an extremely proffesional dressmaker) keep in mind that alterations may cost u almost as much as the gown itself…
cshapiro, its funny cuz her vera wang was also from davids bridal! lol! but as to how the seem of the original dress was hidden – im not sure, the dressmaker did a really good job! there was no lace on the top of the dress… the bodice had a lot of folded and bunched up fabric so the dressmaker sort of continued the existing design blending the original dress with the added piece… i’m sorry thats the best way that i can describe it…
I hope this helps! 🙂 btw mazel tov! and besha’ah tovah!
a friend of mine bought a vera wang strapless gown and built it up. it came out gorgeous!!!!! no one knew it was built up. but i guess it also has to do with the syle of the dress (when its beaded it may be harder to fix…) and the dressmaker u use. good luck!
ps i hav yet to see a kalah that isnt pretty on her wedding day!
i read.
Dr Pepper,
HAZIT!!!!!!!!!! THAT POOR GUY!!!!!!!!!!!
but i’ve got a card,
i stole it from my sisters yard!
how can you drink lard?
isnt it hard?
how is it that if u dont get paid
u have the money to by lemonade?
stamper, im sefardic and i agree with u 1000%!!!
ef613, u r correct in ur statement, however once all questions of lineage are answered there is usually no problem. (this is only refering to the edict that u mentioned…)
thanx ronrsr, kapusta, and coffeee addict!
dont worry, there was no way i was goin out with a guy like that!
i just wanted to make sure i wasnt the crazy one in this situation, so thanx for agreeing with me!!! 🙂
a shadchan recently called me and asked if i wear a seatbelt.
i answered a firm “Of course!!!” thinking this was an easy one…
but then the shadchan was like “oh… the guy specificly asked because he doesn’t believe it is tzeniut for a girl to wear a seatbelt…”
does anyone else think this is crazy or am i the crazy one???
hence the CR Posters thread….
speeking as a former counselor, my answer is yes to all ur questions. as for how much i must agree with Another name on that one. just keep in mind that most couselors dont get paid much from the camp, and it is really nice when parents show hakarat hatov that the counselor took care of their child and made sure that the child had an awesome summer. i believe it is the counselor who makes the summer fun, not so much the camp, activities, or trips.
hope this was helpful! 🙂
Ok I know I may sound a little stupid with this question, but aren’t Mizrachis charedi?
Thumbs up shloime060!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
Hi ro66!
first of all u should know that u r not the only one facing this issue. unfortunately many (if not most) of us do. i was once at a class about kavanah in teffilah and the speaker’s advice was to think of specific needs in each beracha. for example in the beracha of chonen hadaat u should think about a certain area that u wish that Hashem grant u clarity. as a student i always thought of a test or assignment, now i think of shidduchim…
in the beracha of modim, the speaker advised to think of just one thing u r grateful for since the last time u prayed. even if its something as trivial as finding a parking space this morning.
basicly one shold try to harness his thoughts to think about something practical and day to day.
there is no problem to small for Hashem to handle! 🙂
Hope this helps!
Hi, im sefaradic – syrian acctually. i was the only sefardic girl in seminary and i hav 2 say i got on very well with the ashkenazim. some of them became my closest friends. if situations were different i would hav no problem marrying an ashkenaz guy, exept that the minhagim are different. being that it is the wife who must change and follow her husband i find it a little difficult. but to be honest i dont see that much of a difference between us. so we speek a little different, eat different food, pray with a different nusach… but r we not all serving Hashem? we are more machmir in sertain areas and ashkenazim are more machmir in others. so what?! we r all Jewish and we all serve Hashem – that is the main point.
p.s. anyone here heared the song yalili on youtube?
“the use of “frumkeit” to explain certain ideas or shittos, that are not a part of yiddeshkeit. This would include any so-called “chumra” that actually has no basis in halacha.”
plz explain which “ideas or shittos” u r reffering to.
thanx!
a Yid sure did
cook it in a lid.
Really! i dont kid!
i dont think anyone should go into a marriage thinking of divorce. thats first.
second, think about those kids u wanna hav – do u think its a good life for them to hav parents who are divorced? think about their future!
third, the whole mind set that divorce is o.k. and perfectly normal is a pretty new one (in the last hundred years or so) and one that is not condonded by the Torah community.
fourth, if u want your marriage to work u must learn to give and to give up. my father always says if couples would only do that there would be no reason for divorce. u cant be selfish in a marriage,constantly thinking “whats in it for me.”
and going into a marriage just for the sake of being married and wearing a tallit, sounds pretty selfish – especially if u r thinking about divorcing your wife in a few years anyway.
we r supposed to get married in order to build a FAMILY and a Bayit Neeman BeYisrael.
(btw i used the “you” term not meaning “you” personally, but anybody)
moskidoodle, of course i did!
the hashgacha,however,
is unknown cuz its from madrid.
DaasYochid, i agree with u.
if there is enouph going on to make u suspicious then i think the matter must be investigated. this is the wellbeing of a child we r talking about! though of course one should turn to Da’at Torah before taking a specific course of action.
I dont know about getting there from the catskills, but dutch wonderland in lancaster pennsylvania is a great place for families. it is an amusment park for kids with BIG rides but not SCARY rides so kids of all ages have a lot of fun there. it has a mini water park area as well. dutch wonderland is also very close to Hershey park. there is a great hotel near by called willow valley/double tree. (it has 2 buildings – the original and the new one which is partnered with hilton) the hotel has a really nice kiddy pool and GORGEOUS grounds – lake and all!
hope this is helpful! 🙂
quark, y does it bother u if other ppl r more religeous than u? u obviously believe in live and let live, so if certain topics bother u then dont read them. and dont comment on how annoying they r either. some ppl acctually enjoy having different views on different issues.
btw, in order to serve Hashem out of love u must fear Him first. look it up…
I’m not quite understanding this discussion. is there anyone out there who believes in NOT reporting abuse when he/she is absolutely sure of whats going on?
I’m in the mood for some mozzarella
Let’s hope it doesn’t hav salmonella
Thanx bortezomib for your encouraging post! 🙂
And thanx kapusta for the link. i really found that speech inspirational and entertaining!
LSH, Mrs. Brog gives a sewing class – i believe in benei yosef (ocean pkwy and ave p)but i could be wrong (about the location i meen).
deedeeluver, i know EXACTLY how u feel! what i usually end up doing is going for a manicure!
I wish! but i meant the horse. lol!
Hi everyone! i hav a question? does the shidduch crisis really exist? to me it seems that it does, but how can it if we KNOW that Hashem has set aside zivugim for EVERYONE before we are born? being “on the market” and without many shidduch suggestions, i dont know what to think.
MiddlePath, my father always taught me that the secret to a happy and healthy marriage is to always be giving. so it sounds to me like you shouldn’t worry too much on the marriage front. 🙂
and i dont think you should feel guilty for being a giver. you are only following Hashem’s example!
Good luck!
kapusta, thanx 4 the tip!!!!!
we wont know till hes here! but in my mind hes comin tomorrow!
Yes, ayin hara is very real. i remember learning that ayin hara can come when one looks at his friend’s beracha with a critical eye. i.e. “what did he do to deserve that?” at this point judgement takes place in shamaim for both parties. if the person who received the beracha is indeed found “unworthy” then the beracha is taken away. but the person who is looking on with the critical eye is found to have a lot of beracha as well he is considered a cafuy tova and some of his beracha is taken away as well.
i dont know about all of u but i think this is terrifying!!!!
Rav Abuhatzeira is the 5th gadol to pass away in a just a few weeks! he is also the second Jew MURDERED in a few weeks by a fellow Jew!
