Is this not the cutest thing you’ve ever seen?

I’m slightly obsessed with it even though when someone gave me a gold “Aliza” pendant, I sort of freaked and had a flashback to my ghetto childhood. All the “cool” girls who used to rag on me wore their shiny little MEAN GIRL names around their neck.

Thanks to fan Rachel Lavin aka @fideoqueen for suggesting the perfect 5th anniversary present. Now I just have to get Rabbi Hausman on board. You can check out more of her work here: http://lajoyeraguera.posterous.com/

If you haven’t already, please mosey on over to Rabbi Hausman’s blog. Last week, his weekly dvar torah on Parshat Re’eh was in the Jewish Journal to much well-deserved praise and fanfare. It was called “Seeing with the Sixth Sense,” not the Bruce Willis movie but the “sacred sense” or the “sense of the holy.”

This week’s dvar torah on the weekly parsha, “Parashat Shoftim: Winter’s Fruit – A Recollection” is JUST AS GOOD!

Like my blog, you can also subscribe to his. And the writing’s better over there. I mean different. No, we’re not competitive at all. 🙂

You can also follow us on Facebook. These days I’m on Twitter and Facebook more than I am over here. 140 characters is a bit easier right now.

If you ALSO follow Rabbi Hausman, then you’re following the whole family. That sort of sounds like you’re stalking us. Hmm. DON’T STALK US. Just sayin’. Though I will try to be better about posting when and where you can see us at upcoming speaking engagements in the Los Angeles area.

When we have kids, they will surely start their own little Hausman blogs and Facebook fan pages, which I will watch like a hawk until my cop aunt makes me take them down. I just hope this doesn’t turn into a creepy a reality TV show–I mean, we ARE in LA–because I hate reality TV.

No, I won’t judge you if you don’t judge me on what we’re watching OR not watching on TV. I’m more of a Fringe, Bones, Pretty Little Liars kinda girl.

Have a wonderful Shabbos! From the woman who was supposed to be at the Glatt Shop an hour ago. Whoops.
