Lib Kvetch o' Day Part Deux... and supper

"Further to my previous email, here's an error I just received which I have encountered before:
When reserving a book, if you forget to specify which branch you'd like to pick up at, the system returns a "#HOnot defined" error.
You should probably simply not allow the user to place the hold unless the form is entirely filled in.  This is simple enough to catch before processing.  Thanks!"
 
Just so this post isn't all about kvetching, SUPPERS!
 
Yesterday (Tuesday):
~ Roasted red pepper & black bean soup with a hint of chipotle (ie I pulled out the two chipotle halves before I puréed the soup so it would be warm but not spicy, if you know what I mean...), served with extra-rich sour cream (Ted bought it for an experiment - the stuff is so thick and gloppy - yum, but we'll probably never buy it again).
~ Yellow-pepper and red wine tomato sauce on home-boiled Fettuce.  At this point, I was starting to get tired and the mouth-painkillers were wearing off so I let Ted take over the boiling & plating and heating up the
~ Ace-Bakery bread.  I'll never get tired of it, but honestly quite hard to eat with only half a mouth that doesn't even open all that well yet.
 
Today (Wednesday):
~ Superstore Chicken
~ Oven-Fried rice (got to get going on that right about now)
~ Plain rice for Naomi, because I'm nice
~ Veg on the side
 
Pretty uninspired, but Ted's working late, Naomi has swimming, so there you go.

What do we tell our kids about Chabad and “Yechi”?

If I start by saying I really like Chabad, and adore the late Lubavitcher Rebbe, z"l, well... maybe you already know where I'm headed. Naomi Rivka has been asking lately what I think about Chabad.  She asks, in part, because she already knows how I feel.  She already knows I’m bothered, though to her, it’s mostly about “liking” and “not liking.”  I wish things were that simple. Our little neighbourhood in Israel has a significant Chabad presence, and Chabad conducts fairly significant outreach within the community.  Which sounds nice until you realize that this is a religious neighbourhood, closed on Shabbos, where some huge percentage of people are shomer mitzvos.  Sure, it’s mostly religious Zionist, and there are a range of observances, for sure, but we’re pretty much all religious here in some way or another. So at that point, this isn’t outreach but inreach .  Convincing people who are religious to be… what? A lot of Chabad’s efforts here are focused on kids, including a
