Procrastinate much? Procrastinate, much! Pesach caption contest!

I was over at the Dover Publishing website and noticed they had a featured eCard. “How lovely,” I thought. “I will see what it is, and maybe send it to my Most Loved Ones in honour of the upcoming Passover feast.”

So I clicked… and here is the image featured on their eCard of the week:

“How perfect!” I mused. “How utterly pleasing for the Pesach season. But… I wonder – it just needs the PERFECT caption.”

I realize a picture is worth a thousand words, but sometimes, a few actual words can make the difference between a good Pesach card and a fantabulous one. So I charge you, my loyal readers (YES, relatives are eligible!) to come up with the perfect seasonal caption to go with this image.

You don’t have to be Jewish to enter – come one, come all!

Is there a prize?

Glad you asked! I will include the winner’s name (or your child’s name, if you prefer) in next week’s Parsha Poem. If there are no entries before next week, OR no Parsha Poem next week (quite likely), then I will include the winner’s name in the following poem. If nobody enters at all ever, I will have to rely on my “standard names” of Clarence and Shmuli, so I beseech everyone to enter.

Leave your entry with your first name or child’s first name AND your suggested caption as a comment below or email it to me at Jay3fer “at” gmail “dot” com.

Are Jews an "underrepresented community" in children’s publishing?

I applied for a writing award yesterday. I'm not going to get it, but that's not what I wanted to share with you. Here's what I wanted to share. This box: I stared at this box for a long, long time. And then I decided not to check it. Even though I believe people like me truly are underrepresented, we probably wouldn’t fit the definition in other people's minds. Why? Well, because we're European. Because we are white. Because as everybody knows, Jews control the media. (do we???) If anything, some people say, Jews are over -represented in publishing. And yet. Some definitions are careful not to include people like me. Like this random definition from the State of California which defines underrepresented for some very specific business purposes as: "an individual who self-identifies as Black, African American, Hispanic, Latino, Asian, Pacific Islander, Native American, Native Hawaiian, or Alaska Native, or who self-identi
