    NSH: What’s butter cake?

    Thanks to my mother for the recipe! Crust is OP.

    Mushroom Quiche:

    2 onions – dice and saute till brown.

    1 box mushrooms – slice, saute. When water comes out of mushroom, stop.

    Take off fire.

    Add – 2 heaping tbs flour

    2 eggs

    1 package grated cheese (mozzarella).

    Mix. Pour into pie crust.

    Bake 350 for 45 – 60 min.

    I was skeptical of the OP, since I really like custard donuts.

    But today, I ate custard sufganiyot and jelly sufganiyot, and Popa is right. The jelly ones really do taste better as sufganiyot than they do as donuts.

    I’m sure members of the CR will be happy to let you have it if you post your food plan and how it’s going.

    I was once working as a cleaning lady and the mother kept a collection of scotch under her bed! And she yelled at me when she noticed I had taken them out to clean under the bed, because her husband was home and she was scared he would see.

    It’s called Impostor Syndrome. Research shows that 2/5 successful people consider themselves frauds. Most of the research has been done in women but it is estimated that a similar amount of men feel the same way.

    You can google CLANCE IMPOSTOR PHENOMENON SCALE (CIPS) to take a free online test and see if you’re an impostor or not. 🙂

    Asking for pictures is sick. Seminaries ask for pictures because they want to have a good ratio of girls getting married soon after seminary, so they pick the prettiest girls. I personally know that they often sell the folder of pictures to shadchanim and prominent politicians like Mitt Romney.

    Really?

    Vogue, I don’t believe it. If anything, rap negatively affects people’s health in all the studies I’ve read. Unless you want higher blood pressure.

    To answer the OP: Chofetz Chaim people are on a higher madreiga than everyone else. If you’re not on that madreiga, it could be hard for you to keep up.

    So they have to discourage you 3 times from marrying into Chofetz Chaim. If you marry someone from CC anyway, it shows you’re able to stay on the madreiga.

    LAB, the issue isn’t as black and white as you’re making it out to be. “Asking out” can mean anything from asking for his/her number to go on a date, which I think is inappropriate, to asking for his/her Rebbetzin’s contact information so he can find out more about her, which I think is fine. I neither support nor oppose asking out in either situation.

    Hashem has His ways of getting people together who are meant for each other.

    Provided both parties follow the spirit and practice of halacha, there is no reason this can’t work out.

    Is this different than someone marrying their friends’ sibling, which happens pretty frequently? This just requires more carefulness and tznius to ensure the initial impression holds up.

    From the website: The Rabbinical Council of America has mobilized many of the ?nest minds and eloquent writers from the rabbinate

    and academia to produce a contemporary American Siddur. It faithfully projects the ever-expanding intellectual strength,

    It’s apparently supposed to be more sensitive to women etc.

    You’re asking a good question. There’s a fine line between being untznius, and pursuing something that has a chance of working out.

    SF: Approaching is fine. Going on a date just because someone approached you is not fine.

    Had someone ever done that, I would have told them the name of someone to contact to set up the shidduch, and made it go through normal shidduch channels.

    Attraction is important, but you don’t want to lose sight of the essential foundations of a long term relationship in your initial attraction. I think the ability to research and match hashkafos is a wonderful aspect of the shidduch system, as well as the ability to say no gracefully after one or two dates, which minimizes premature emotional investment.

    Therefore, even if you meet by yourselves, I think it’s important to use a shadchan and do research.

    writersoul: don’t do bangs, they look too cutesy and you want to look more professional and adult if you’re short.

    I like side bangs, just long enough to tuck behind your ear when they get annoying.

    I’m still confused. How would not listening to rap affect someone’s health in a negative way?

    Vogue, no one is “beating up” on you. It’s possible that your own guilt feelings that are making you feel threatened.

    Being asked to clarify what you said, or being challenged on an opinion you stated, is part of normal online communication.
