Over the last couple of weeks I have been laboring over what the new name of this blog should be. Some people might be able to come up with fifty great titles in twenty-nine seconds, but it’s really hard for me. Obviously it can’t be My Falafel Times anymore, because Gary, Preston, and I left Israel two months ago and moved to Brussels, Belgium. God has opened up a whole new door of ministry, and we are so excited about it. Israel is still a central theme of my life, so you’ll still hear about the subject, but sadly enough I definitely don’t see many falafels in Belgium.

Just wanted to say on this beautiful Rosh Hashana morning how grateful I am for my new website and also give a little glimpse into our exciting festivities for the holiday. (“Exciting” is a grandiose word for what we did, but we had fun!)
First of all I want to give a HUGE shout out to Daniel Dessinger for helping me get WordPress set up on my new website. He transferred all my blogging history from Blogspot into WordPress and got me set up on an awesome theme. It’s been a learning curve for me, but I truly think WordPress is a superior program to others out there. I just love the clean, solid look of it. Anyway….thank you so so much, Daniel for all you’ve done and are doing on my site. I’m forever grateful! Btw, he is a web marketer and blogger extraordinaire. Click here to visit his website. The links on the left of his site lead to his other blogs and interests. I wish I could download all his web & blogging knowledge into my brain….
We are in the second day of the 2-day Rosh Hashana holiday. Normally accustomed to celebrating with our large family, these pictures are a little comical to me. (I wasn’t feeling very well on Friday, so I didn’t put any effort into setting a nice table as you can tell.)
Shabbat candles and round challah
I like the pic above because of the candle light effect, but this one shows the challah better. (My tiny oven always gets the challah too brown, even when it’s covered with foil.)
After our day full of writing projects and internship-planning, here we are about to eat schnitzel and watch something on tvshack.net. Notice the external speakers attached to the laptop? This is the life!
Have I ever said I love living in Jerusalem?!
