By Sara Esther Crispe I tried to explain that sometimes mommies can make mistakes and lose sight of what is most important, and I asked for her forgiveness . . . | | Joys and Challenges |  | Gopher Hunting
The road to maternal gratitude
By Chana (Jenny) Weisberg “Loser! You are wasting your higher education on changing diapers and wiping runny noses! You are squandering your potential on scrubbing dirty dishes and baking macaroni and cheese casseroles!” It’s at moments like this that I know that no tape or book or inspiring thought can provide the heavy-duty help I need . . . | | The Month of Iyar |  | Transformation Through Intimacy
Sefirat HaOmer, Part VI
By Shimona Tzukernik Contemporary culture is hooked on sexuality but knows almost nothing of intimacy. The former has to do with the body, the act alone. The latter is personal and also spiritual.

Trying to Leave Egypt
By Hanna Perlberger If I am to truly leave Egypt behind, it won't be as a result of getting that black belt, becoming proficient with a .45 semi, engaging in more therapy, reading self-help books, meditating on Hebrew letters or Your divine attributes, eating right, increasing my daily fiber intake, or even praying. There is no solution other than to cry out to You, I suppose... | | Shabbat and Holiday Recipes |  | Shavuot Recipes
Shavuot is traditionally celebrated through eating dairy foods. So get ready for some guilt-free cheesecake eating, as we observe the giving of the Torah to the Jewish people! |
