Shrek, it is actually interesting because my father surrounded his house with big German Shepherds for protection and I heard this is common among holocaust survivors.
The frum people who live in NYC are petrified of all animals, as they never had pets. I find people from out of town less afraid of animals.
Do the people in the coffee room think that owning a cat is the same thing as owning a dog? Do yeshivish people own cats, is it “done”?
cookies 123, I think that in most cases, real hair is much nicer than wig hair. Real hair moves and looks alive. Shaitel might be beautiful but it’s still artificial hair and I can tell a million miles away, even if it’s very expensive.
What do you care what everyone thinks and what they do, just focus on yourself and your own spiritual growth and don’t point fingers at others. that’s my policy.
“agave nectar is just concentrated fructose (primarily). I don’t see why it should be any better than high fructose corn syrup.”
Agave is absorbed by the body slower than sugar is absorbed, so people who are into the glycemic index like the agave. Agave does have calories and is very expensive. I don’t think it’s worth it.
nj girl, I heard this on the radio recently…that eating something sweetened with artificial sweetners causes the body to crave sweet things, like cake and cookies etc, afterwards.
I have heard that the disposable tins and aluminum foil not so healthy either. 🙁
Thank you Chava Brocha.
can people please provide links on the internet showing it is dangerous to cook with plastic? I am having a hard time finding any. thank you! Ima of three
Surprising that the FDA allows them to sell these crockpot liners if they aren’t healthy.
choulent recipes don’t belong here where the discussion is on how to clean the crockpot.
Regarding the chemicals from crock pot liners leaking into the food, is that true?
This year I am planning on serving fleishig for the evening meals and dairy for the two lunch meals. cheesecake here I come! 🙂
this should be your worst nisayon in life, that you were not permitted to go to your daughter’s graduation. Get over it and be thankful for what you have. Many would do anything to be in your shoes.
Dead as a door knob.
Unfortunately, our Yeshivos cannot afford to pay teachers much of a salary. So the teachers cannot afford cleaning help. If you want your kids to be in school, get together with other parents and privately pay a teacher to teach your kids. You get what you pay for.
Adorable, I do not pay with cash, but All Fresh sends me a pink coupon in the mail (money back) to spend next time I shop.
let’s be careful with loshon horah about stores because we don’t want to take away from anyone’s parnosah.
I think coffee acts like a diuretic because of the caffiene.
It’s legal for them to sell expired food? someone could get sick chas v’shalom 🙁
I never eat choulent because I don’t like it but Abbaofthree eats it for shabbos lunch. 😉
I never give rides to strange men and I told my daughters the same thing. not safe.
Lactaid is not kosher for passover. almond milk is a good idea.
I have one, it’s called a seer pelah in hebrew, translated as WONDER POT. I got mine a long time ago in Israel. Maybe you could buy one on e-bay and kasher it.
There was a book written about the Klausenberg Rebbe and his life. I have it. He was a tremendous tzaddik. My mother was born in the same town as the Rebbe (Rudnick) and her family davened in his father’s shul. The Rebbe lost his entire family in the holocaust but after the war he became the father and mother of an orphaned generation, when he himself had lost so much.
How about fish? Salmon is yum and very healthy. chicken chow mein with shabbos left overs? Turkey?
Ha ha, wolfish musings, I was also in public school for kindergarten only. When I was older I used to carry my penny for tzaddakah in my shoe.
All of these questions are made up anyways.

speaking of the costs of dairy products, orange juice is going up too. Tropicana is upping the cost of their juice by eight percent.
CharlieSmall, a chobani yogurt is not really enough for a breakfast. I usually eat two of them in addition to a fruit/banana and a bowl of oatmeal.
The macabeats made many Jews proud to be Jewish. More power to them!
I like the chobani greek yogurt, not cholov yisroel though.
Shev143, the new Weight Watchers diet came out in November. You still count points, but you are allowed more points, at least twenty nine points. But now carbs are more points and fruit is zero points, just not dried fruit, only fresh fruit.
I just brown the meat in a pan and add the sloppy joe sauce from a can, maybe Hunts makes it? Then spoon some over a hamburger bun.
Shelack is a special polish they put on and then your hands go in this box where the polish hardens. Then it lasts for about two weeks and then you have to soak your nails in nail polish remover to take it off. some people say not so safe because of the UV.
Has anyone tried the shelack nail polish? Is it safe?
Ashkefardi, I agree with you about letting it cook a long time. I put the choulent up to cook thursday night, my family likes it that way.
one eight ounce can of tomato sauce, lots of fresh minced garlic, and some osem chicken soup powder.
flanken too…just so darn expensive 🙁
If Hillary Clintin would have become president then we would have no pics of our president in the frum papers.
When I was a child, I used to read the Jewish Press. I especially loved the tales of the gaonim, stories about tzaddikim. I alway say the Jewish Press helped me become frum…
Yated, Mishpacha, Bina, delivered. I buy the ami magazine, also zeman. love them all.
I did start spring cleaning but the real pesach cleaning is after purim!
meant to write I would consider it FOR my daughters.
what are hidduchim? LOL. I would consider it from my daughters if it was right for them. just because someone has yicchus doesn’t mean they have good middos.
overcome the urge by getting away from the kitchen/fridge and going to bed. most people eat because they are tired.
My theory is that the boys in yeshiva have very little outlets during the year so on Purim they go totally nuts, trying to get it all in. I wish they would take that energy and make a purim play. Some boys would really benefit from making a play and getting the attention they crave that way. A certain local yeshiva used to make a purim play purim night, and charged admission. It was fun for the boys and the yeshiva got much needed funds.
My parents belong to an orthodox shul, the Rabbi is a Chabbad guy and he wants the people to come to shul, does not want to turn them away if they are coming by car and gradually he mekarvs people so they don’t drive to shul anymore.
