Nilly, that's about the same size that I wear. One of the best places that I've found for shoes is the children's department at Nordstroms. They sell the childrens lines of Steve Madden, Nine West, Candie's, (I think also Kenneth Cole, but don't quote me on that one), which are generally identical to the adult lines except for a slightly lower heel, and sometimes the leather parts replaced with fabric.
And boys -- let's watch the swearing.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Right now it seems like I'll be in DC from the 30 or 31st of August until the 1st of September - the last stop before returning to Israel.
excellent, I'll be around then, and fully moved, I expect.

Thanks for the shoes tips, Hil.
I'll be around then
Great.
I have to run out - this whole different-timezones-things again.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I remember a discussion about a pregnant woman craving something to eat on Yom-Kippur (a fast, and pretty much the holiest day of the year. Breaking the fast is a huge deal), and I think that she was supposed to be given what she was craving, if it was really that strong a need (but fed to her in a special way, little by little, with big breaks between each small bite).
Wow. Now that's what I call an exception to the rules.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Nilly, there is a Nordstrom's right down the block from my apartment, so maybe we can swing by, if time permits.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Nilly, all faxed! Whoot!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The safest way - the one that I use here, at home, in Israel - is to look for stuff that have a kosher certificate approved by a religious authority, both when it comes to products and when it comes to restaurants and the like.
Are all authorities equal? I mean, in NYC there are, I'm sure, different certificates from different kinds of religious authorities.
Just checking.

All authorities are not equal.
I mean that seriously, not snarkily.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Nilly, excellent - but I got the link from Hil last night while we were playing Literati, and clicked on it from there. Got the info I wanted, and didn't keep it. Hil? Do you still have it?
My oven is the highest rated consumer range (it edges on professional) and will do 600 degrees or so. Trust me, that kills pretty much anything in there, short of aliens who live on the surface of the planet Mercury. And after that, the direct flame of a blowtorch.
Do you need to be there for bread-baking preparation? EVen if everything going in has the kosher sign?
