I think my mother is one of the most beautiful women in the world, with her crazy curls and nose and glasses and pink, pink face. She’s unbelievably smart and sharp and funny as they come, and I’d love to see a Disney princess like her.
I love Disney and I’m a total fan of the films, but I think it’s wise to point out their socio-cultural shortcomings. That’s how we get better, by realizing what we can do for the world. New kinds of princesses with compelling stories could fill out the Disney pantheon in a really fun, beautiful, satisfying way.

Breaking the Mold In Jewish Education

As someone who has a lot of trouble learning using the typical Jewish education model, this D’var Torah for last week’s parsha really resonated with me. Definitely recommended reading for anyone who is currently attending or ever has attended school!

Sixty-Four Things I Love About Israel

A funny and touching list that will definitely improve your knowledge of Hebrew slang and make it easier than ever to shep nachas about Israel. Hope you all had a meaningful Yom Ha’atzmaut/Israeli Independence Day!

Something truly amazing: the Magen David, the Jewish star, contains every letter in the Hebrew alphabet. 

I’m not much for modern poetry but this woman has a beautiful and well-spoken message about Judaism. 

“Shabbat Light” - an Owl City parody. (:

Good Shabbos, everyone! Enjoy the day off. :)
