Shabbat shalom! Spoke too soon last week, celebrating spring in early April; our second bomb cyclone of the year forced the postponement of two Wednesday night events, Two Jews, Three Opinions and the Foxes reading from Liz Fox’s book. Watch this space for their re-appearance in May. Oh, and there was an election in Israel on Tuesday, and the Israeli attempt to land a probe on the Moon failed on Thursday.
We’re exactly a week away from Passover, and if you are still looking for a bottle of wine to bring with you to your seder, check out our Israeli wine recommendations.
Meanwhile, enjoy our spring, and here are this week’s posts:
