חודש טוב! Happy new-month!

The month of elul has started, which means it’s exactly one (lunar) month until Rosh HaShanah (Jewish New Year). I know I’m not ready, but I think nobody else is either, this crazy, strange year. Hoping someone figures out what’s going to be happening; sooner, rather than later.

Our olive trees are full enough that the branches are hanging low, so we took 3kg of olives off one of them, and are starting the processing. In a couple months we’ll have nice olives, hopefully.

Esther and I finally got new phones. Her old one wouldn’t hold a charge any more (we’d already replaced the battery once), and my old one wouldn’t respond properly to touch. So we upgraded to the Redmi Note 9 Pro. All I can say, is “wow!”. Absolutely incredible battery life, great screen and cameras. Let’s hope they hold up for another three years.

The Dems are in serious trouble, I think. If the best they could do was have Cardi B (a particularly foul-mouthed rapper and former stripper) “interview” Biden, things aren’t looking good. I can’t even begin to talk about the disaster which is the DNC. The less said, the better.

Things you may not have seen:


I made a new release of 8th this week and also announced a sale, so hopefully I’ll open up my email after shabbat to loads of new customers. Probably not, but one can dream!

Sarah’s ultrasound didn’t show anything alarming, so her doctor sent her to another doctor for more tests. Hopefully some sort of resolution will occur soon.

The weather’s been fine for ME summer, so no complaints. Shabbat should be a bit cooler than average (and I see clouds as I’m writing this).

Our gustatory experiences this shabbat will include:
my rye-sourdough rolls (ver 2.0), Moroccan olive-lemon chicken, basmati rice, garlicky green-beans, some kind of eggplant dish, various salatim, and refreshing watermelon.

Until next time,
shabbat shalom!
