that's it, succinctly even!
*I* said something succinctly? Me? That's even more surprising than actually figuring it out correctly. Do you know already what you will read for the class?
cookbooks were (and are still) transmitters of culture because they outline food taboos and regulations and tastes
I know it's not your topic, but what immediately jumped to my mind when reading this sentence is the kosher rules, how they've evolved over the years and the discoveries of new foods, and how now, when many different communities are all in Israel, the differences between their pasts are being highlighted through the familiar foods.
The way you look at the topic, through the changes in women, is fascinating. Your source material is from specific places, or a variety?
Laura, Cindy - thank you, so much. Your words mean a lot. The thing is, with my daily life, there is no much difference, other than the frequency of checking the news. The bombings is far north from where I live (well, "far" in Israeli terms, but still), so there actually is very little effect on my daily routine. The people who live there, however, can't even pretend to have a proper routine anymore. And Israel is so tiny, that you can't not-know somebody, or plenty of somebodies - who live in these areas, whose family members and friends are servign in the army, right there. So the biggest effect, now, is the emotional one, just like with you.
How did I become the morning shift, is my question.

On the other hand, lots of cool people to chat with.

This would be a fascinating bit of research to do. Not to mention the perfect excuse for a falafel-sampling tour.
Nilly! What Laura and Topic!Cindy said, and I've been thinking about you a lot and also! I wanted to tell you that we're playing with a band from Tel Aviv next week!!! They are called Monotonix.

I'm thinking that the porn stars are more likely to be naked. Just a hunch....

That's so cool! How did you get together?

They were booked at a local club playing with friends of ours and my guitarist heard about it and thought it sounded like a fun show to get in on. So we asked if we can play too! I'm just hoping my voice is back next week. It's all croaky now from a stupid cold.
lisa, I hope so, too. Feel better.
