'The Killer In Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
it's sort of the anti-Theo holiday.
Well, no, because you don't have to do it.
My family comes from a non-dairy cooking tradition, so we practically never do. And even when my mom attempts to try and have something new on the menu, and makes a cheese cake for dessert for this holiday, we have to eat it before the actual (meat containing) meal, due to the kosher rules.
I'd like a roomba, but I'm pretty sure that Ozzie would try to eat it.
Also, why am I awake?
Monkey!
Perkins, I think it is so you can get to the office early and pack.
No offense, msbelle, but I am pretty certain that you are CRAZY HEADED WRONG on that one.
Sean! That's amazing! I have a fear of heights and I don't think I could EVER do that. Woo hoo!
I treated myself to a short no fat latte with a shot of caramel because today is payday!
hmmm. Perkins clarifying that she is not nice.
Nilly, how long do you have to wait in between the dairy and the meat? I'm wondering if my family's mid-afternoon ice cream the other day could be re-interpreted as an early Shavuot celebration. (My parents are the people who went to a Seder days before the start of Passover, so.)
A train made me about fifteen minutes late to work this morning, and I left my coffee on the kitchen counter. Sigh.
how long do you have to wait in between the dairy and the meat?
As a good Jewish girl, my answer is: that depends.
There are different rules for people who come from different communities (because it all evolved for centuries), and sometimes even different rules for different kinds of meat.
Usually, it's 3 hours after chicken (or turkey) and 6 hours after, um, anything that had 4 legs, in the lack of a better word for it in my vocabulary. Some don't make that differentiation and wait 6 hours for all kinds of meat (and, yup, that's where I am. 6 hours are a really long time when chocolate is concerned).
The shortest wait is one hour. Dutch people can clear the table, wash the dishes, wait a while, and have ice-cream for dessert. Most other people either resent them for their luck to be born Dutch, or try to see if they can marry one of them in order to accept their way of conducting things. I guess your parents could qualify as Dutch, right?
(Also, I'm a skipper - when does the - YAY - new job start? And are you enjoying your well earned vacation in the meantime?)
[Edit: SA, I hope this means no more bad luck for you for the rest of the day.]

As easily as they could qualify as Jewish!
New job starts Monday. Am definitely enjoying this vacation time. I was out for dinner with people from school last night (our 10 day reunion!), and it was great to see everyone so relaxed for once.
