As beautiful as Italy is, as fascinating the conversations, as delicious the meals, as breath-taking the wines… it’s really hard to be away from home right now. I miss Tracie and Baby P so much… On the plane across the Atlantic, I made this video to soothe my lonesomeness and homesick blues while I’m here. “The Story of Baby P So Far (to be continued)”… I hope you enjoy it as much as I do and thanks for letting me share it with you… Buona visione!
And on the subject of family matters…

A taste of Manischewitz for Rosh Hashanah — 11 percent alcohol, mevushal (i.e., cooked so that the wine remains kosher even if handled by non-Jews), “specially sweetened” wine, “containing not less than 51 percent Concord” grapes — inspired me to write a nostalgic post for the Houston Press on Friday, “Manischewitz, a Kiddush Cup Full of Memories.”
Happy New Year, everyone. Thanks for reading.
thanks for the sweet slide show 2B! we miss you too, here at home, but we’ll be waiting with open arms and a big belly to greet your return :)
