Leg cramps: second recs for hydration and potassium. IF bannans don't do it potassium chloride is sold as a salt substitute. Also, going to bed on an empty stomach (that is not eating too close to bedtime) can help if she does not already follow that practice.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Thanks guys. I will pass these on.

Thank goodness for my mother and her ability to talk endlessly about anything. I had the worst anxiety attack that I have had in ages a little while ago and TCG is not home. Mom talked with me for a while on the phone, and I'm feeling much better now.

Also, from the names on the captions, it looks like a lot of the people are Persian or Arab Jews.
I think Beth Jacob covers a pretty wide spectrum. It's a big Orthodox synagogue with a school and a lot of members in walking distance. The area Kroger and Publix both have in-store Kosher bakeries and meat departments.

I think I'd thought that most Jews in Atlanta were either German or Eastern European. The more recent immigrants from the Middle East have been tending toward certain places -- Persians in LA, Syrians in NYC -- and I hadn't really thought that a significant number had gone to Atlanta.

Ah. Google tells me that the Sephardic Jews in Atlanta are mostly Greek and Turkish.

Glad that you're feeling better, sj.
I just had a random attack of "Crap! What if I never get married? Can I still have kids?" I honestly have no idea where that came from. Probably because I skipped Purim, and thus skipped an opportunity to be social.

Thanks, Hil. I'm still just a little shaky, but TCG is home, so all is good.
Hil, do not torture yourself with crazy what if's.

Yeah, what-ifs are bad. I'm the second-youngest of my generation of cousins on my mom's side, and of the about 25 or so of us, only the five youngest aren't married yet. The older ones who have married all married Christians. I've overheard my mom and her cousins discussing which of the younger bunch of us will be most likely to marry someone Jewish and raise Jewish kids, and the consensus seemed to be that I was the most likely, with my cousin Marc a close second. (Of the remaining three, one has said he no longer considers himself Jewish, one has said that she'd be OK with a Christmas tree in her home, and one is somewhat overweight and in her mid-thirties, so the older generation seems to have given up on her.)
