Is that black and white cookie what Bostonians might call a Half Moon? It's sort of like one half of a whoopie pie, with half of it frosted with white frosting, and half frosted in chocolate?
Jesse are you here? Can you translate to bridge the New York --> Boston communication gap.
Cindy, it was incredible. First real vacation our family has had, ever, and we couldn't have picked a better spot. What a beautiful country. And Nilly (who I was unable to see this visit unfortunately) tells me the Passover weather was one of the best she can remember.
I remember Nilly saying that. That's great. Were you visiting any family or friends, or were you there only as pilgrims? What did you get to see while you were there?

Okay, science folks, I've a question for you. Is the Southern Hemisphere warmer than the northern? someone claims it is true but I'm skeptical. and if it is, why?
Dunno.
Summer in the Southern Hemisphere is both shorter and brighter, as the earth is closer to the sun then. Dunno if that translates into it actually being warmer.
So is this, like, comparing the average temp of a bunch of points in the Northern Hemisphere to the average of a bunch of points of the Southern Hemisphere? If so, it depends on what points you pick. Maybe it's based on infrared emisions picked up by satellite?
If the Southern Hemisphere is warmer than the Northern, it would probably be due to average weather conditions in the two hemispheres.
Anyway, what it comes down to is that I don't know.
Okay, science folks, I've a question for you. Is the Southern Hemisphere warmer than the northern? someone claims it is true but I'm skeptical. and if it is, why?
Are we talking land temperature? Certainly more of the Southern Hemisphere's land area is closer to the equator than is the case in the Northern Hemisphere, so I'd think that the average land temperature might be different.
There's more water in the southern hemisphere than the northern. That might have something to do with it? Maybe it's the El NiƱo effect?
I'd be skeptical too. Maybe they are just arguing temps for location of landmasses. I mean, the Asian continent is HUUUGE and northerly.
erika, you talking about berger's cookies? Cakelike and covered in a huge plop of chocolate cake frosting on them?
Is that black and white cookie what Bostonians might call a Half Moon?
Yes, I believe so, but I'm sure people would say they are different. I don't really eat either, so I dunno for sure.
I think I got some of those in my box of Balmer things, so not just NYC
erika, I'm bettin' you got Berger Cookies. Which are a sort of cake-like cookie with a fudge top. very balmer! [link]
