Goodbye, friends? No!

No way, no how!  Our new slogan here in MamaLand is, "You say goodbye... I say 'Hello, New Way of Connecting with Friends no thanks to Google's FriendConnect.'"  (seder or no seder)

To be honest, I have no idea what the imminent demise of Google FriendConnect means to me, as a blogger, but the thought of a single one of you missing a post makes me ever so sad. Luckily, we have options!  Oy, do we have options for you.

Hmm... what are the options?

Oh, yeah!

1.  If you're reading this in a blog reader, you're already okay; I'm not going nowhere, as they say in my old 'hood (I was raised in a Greek and Italian neighbourhood, I swear!).
2.  If you're reading this the old-fashioned way, in my blog itself, look way, WAY up to the top-left corner.  Do you see the word "Follow"?  Yeah, that one.  Click it!  Then click "Share" right next to it... just because you're nice.
3.  You can subscribe by email!  How sweet is that???

Enter your email address:


4. Or...you can hit this great big orange button to see all your fabulous RSS-feeding options:

But really, why limit yourself to only one option???  Go ahead and do all 4, just in case.  That way, you can be sure you will never miss a scintillating minute of our...

Adventures...
in...
MamaLand!!!

New slogan:

Keeping the JBlogosphere lashon hora free since 2006,
unlike some other Jewish blogs I could name.
(ha ha ha... get it?)

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
