Emergency.
golden mom, I was just thinking about jj cholov yisrael…
(do you get a welcome btw?)
Horrible, I put my foot in my mouth and right off the bat said I can’t work on shabbos
“aint gonna work on Saturday, aint gonna…”
Hatzlacha. May the right job (in hours, location, salary, environment) comes along very soon.
Like several people mentioned, there is chewing gum and there’s doing jaw exercise. I don’t like the way it looks but someone chewing gum, mouth closed, is not so bad. The other just makes someone look… not very good.
AYC- agreed. http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/the-kiddush-hashem-thread
What happens next week?
Anyway lots of hatzlacha to you and whoever else needs (that would be everyone).
(Will you at least tell us if our good wishes worked?)
Welcome. Glad to have ya aboard. (From a former queen)
yossi: Lol, I was thinking that too…
Amen!
Any recipes you want to share?
If there are no actual pictures, I think its a great idea.
WIY:
Wow, I guess like they say, people believe what they want to believe. I seriously doubt anyone forced R’ Kletzky to say anything about the song. If he didn’t approve, he wouldn’t have said anything!! On top of that, the family gave pictures. People do not contribute to things they don’t agree with.
Apple sauce (or any fruit puree) is a standard substitute for a fat. IME it didn’t change the texture at all. I agree with tomim tihye that its probably easiest to start out with a base recipe and then change it to fit the requirements you want.
Sugar also has long term health risks, you have to decide which can be more potentially dangerous.
tomim, do you find that baked goods come out heavier or with an aftertaste when using ww flour?
I think its a great idea but both sides need to have a clear understanding that friendship and shadchan are two separate things.
I don’t know if this counts but I would guess a place that wouldn’t make it into the top 10 most popular guesses.
More importantly, did you take your car with you and how open minded are the people in this place?
State. And city.
How exactly would you move states without moving to a different city?
Its a little funny to me and I think I would be very uncomfortable. The only exception I would make is if something came up in conversation (just got _____ today, what do you think?) which would probably be on a later-stage date.
Oh, and I really don’t understand what the whole rain thing is about…
Unless this cousin is Israeli she wont be able to read the hebrew
Why not? Many not-yet-frum people read Hebrew. In regard to your second point, I’m all for talking to Hashem, but the words of Tehillim are very calming in a different way.
Staying at the kapusta hotel, IY”H. A number of Minyanim within walking distance, good food and a nice heimish atmosphere.
I just need a “do not disturb” sign for my bedroom door and its all good.
😉
The Kreider Farms is AMAZING. And you get a smaple of Cholov Yisrael milk (chocolate or regular) or ice cream. Highly recommended!
Maybe its just me, but I would think a farm is the worst place to get a sample of milk.
It IS derech eretz that she give up a little comfort for Torah. It is derech eretz that he learn more rather than less. And learning shouldn’t be given up for comfort, comfort should be given up for Torah.
Its really nice if she wants to be mentchlich about it, and she should be, but that doesn’t take away his responsibility to act like a mentch.
And speaking of dates, he has many more the she.
*gasp* ?
I think you may have missed out on a couple.
kylbdnr, mazal tov! May you and your chosson (?) be zoche to see Bracha and Hatzlacha in everything and build a Bayis Ne’eman B’Yisrael!
photogenic, mazal tov!! (and btw I don’t think I welcomed you yet)
If I get an opinion, I really don’t like the way this thread is going and it should please be closed.
Maybe she would appreciate a good song? The one thats coming to mind now is “You’re never alone” from Avraham Fried but anything along those lines, really.
Who said anything about making money? How are they supposed to cover costs? It would be very nice if people would give their services free of charge but thats their business, not ours…
Lol, Goq!
Don’t mean to intrude on anyones conversation, but in answer to the OP, it was Memories (from Journeys?)- somewhat Tisha B’av related.
Lamed bais, gimmel, and the next few kapitlach have some very “comforting” (for lack of a better word) pesukim. I would recommend going through it if you’re looking for something that can’t be mistranslated.
(I found those very helpful when I needed it.)
Hatzlacha
Ms. Critique, I think to sum up your comment, you can say “don’t expect to put a son/daughter on a plane and expect them to grow up in ten hours. Immaturity is not location-specific. (I’ll also add that I enjoy your comments.)
b_h, I got a kick out of your post. Welcome back.
Just five more minutes. Pleeeeeeaaase?!
I’ve met one CRer and have had contact with two others (did not know IRL before). Definitely up for a CR get together, I’d love to meet some posters.
5:16 to be exact.
Look at all the divorces/broken engagements/unhappy marriages of today.
Look at how many people are happily married today? Its not everyone, but its many.
A broken engagement makes it no harder for Hashem to get him to you. This may also be a good time to daven that he, (whoever, wherever he is) has Siyata Dishmaya in his Avodas Hashem in general and in the specific areas you found were problematic the last time around.
Please let us know when there is a Mazal Tov.
Hatzlacha
i wanna place a question here. i read about mommas issues in past and also here. yaela too and all the others. while if we use our brain some seem less of a big deal then other but its how each individual reacts to it. i feel my issues are chocking me(shulem bais, depression, some yiddishkeit issues, issues with parents and some minor abuse from someone as kid which i call not abuse but using)but when i read here what people went thru i feel i dont have the right to even think of complainin. does anyone else feel like this? is it normal?
Don’t they say that if one had to choose a “pekelah”, he would choose his own?
In any case, lots of hatzlacha with everything.
Amen! I know I’m a little late, but that was very nice/sweet of you. May all your tefillos (for yourself, and everyone else) be answered l’tova.
A (belated) happy birthday to SB and MP!
(I’m also very flattered to have been mentioned by name!)
one thing i don’t understand is the singing, who needs music on Tisha b’av the rabbonim prohibit acapella so why do they put it on the dvd?
I didn’t see it but I guess it was just voices…? They probably asked a shaila (in previous years), but to answer your question, music (or singing) has a certain power and can touch a person in a different way than just talking would.
cshapiro, I don’t know about the bridal gowns, but the other dresses at DB need to be ordered which means you need like six weeks or so until they come in. If you decide on that route, do it ASAP.
For anyone reading: I’ve heard (more than once) that people who used the seamstresses at DB weren’t happy with the finished gown.
msseeker, please be mochel me. In no way did I c’v intend to hurt or embarrass you. I was a little (maybe more than a little) upset and I went too far.
R’ Yisrael Belsky has a teshuva on this. I believe he says not to listen to upbeat acapella music. The issue is that music will bring you to dance. Upbeat acapella can do that. Slow music, even with instruments, is allowed.
Could someone define dancing?
BPG, Lol!
I’m sorry, but, Zeeskite, if that was your worst tragedy, you have been very blessed. May you always be blessed with things that feel major, when they’re really minor (and may you realize, not through experience, how minor they really are…).
Maybe that was the worst she was willing to speak about?
Amen to the bracha.
I will also put in a motion that this thread be closed.
I agree with the OP in general, but one point; by discussing something it does give it legitimacy, but the first step in fixing the problem is awareness. People can only look out for something if they know to look out for it. (I should also add that I didn’t read the texting on Shabbos thread for the same reason you mentioned.)
Lomed Mikol Adam: Yeah, and look at the results. 50% of their teens are texting on Shabbos r”l.
A. When did it become “theirs” vs ours? Aren’t we one nation?
B. To use that terminology, its ours too. (very sadly)
THAT POST DID NOT GO THROUGH! Why? Because some mod was probably afraid to “insult” the MO. Yet the most vicious slandering against chareidim gets through with no problem. So who are the bashed and who are the bashers?
At this point I would normally say something. Since I don’t really know what to say anymore, instead I give you a bracha that Hashem let you see the beauty of all Yidden. Even those that you may not agree with.

Dear mod that deleted that post, thank you for saving my blood pressure from going up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why does it seem like every thread turns into bashing MO Jews…
I was wondering that myself.
so are you saying Rosa Parks was not tzniusdik?
If you take into account societies morals and values being a lot lower nowadays, she was probably a lot more tznius than the average woman on the street today (one with good tznius).
