HOME & FAMILY Three Tears By the Well...
Urei Betuv Yerusholayim
An Act of Chessed - Pass it On by Menucha Levin Seven years ago, with all the innocence and hope of

attempted to buy our first apartment in Israel. This
experience, looking
back on it now, was not very different from two other major
life events:
planning our wedding and having our first child...
Still no rain. Not enough rain. Everybody was talking about
rain.
Elisheva's father, who grew sunflowers, declared that at this
rate,
by the end of the month, his whole crop would be ruined. Not
enough
rain.

standard or no therapy to see if it's any better...
WHAT'S COOKING?
Oats, or `quaker', as the Israelis call it, gets its Hebrew
name after
the round cardboard Quaker Oats container depicting the
`chossid',
pardon me, Puritan Quaker, holding a box of Quaker Oats, with
a Quaker
holding a smaller box with a Quaker holding a smaller box...
you remember
the picture?
