כ״ז בניסן ה׳תשס״ו (Tuesday 25 April 2006)

Today is Scott Dubin’s Yom Aliyah and it was a huge honor on my part to present him with a bottle of champagne (it’s Israeli, so I guess it’s just sparkling wine) and some shoko b’sakit and rugalach from Marzipan to welcome him into his new home. He’s also going to be staying here, in [...]

An alphabet meme

כ״ד בניסן ה׳תשס״ו (Saturday 22 April 2006)

I am tagged. Accent: Generic American. Slow, with a few regional peculiarities (I still say “pinguin” instead of “penguin”). Booze: The Shyster is my all-time favorite drink.
