Day 185 (Shabbos)

Our first Shabbos in our new home! It was a good one. (We even mangaged to get the living room clear of boxes before Shabbos.) We ate at home Friday night, and at the Golds' (that's what I decided to call the family who's really helped us move to Towna) for Shabbos lunch. As per the usual, Husbinator and I took turns napping in the afternoon. When I wasn't busy sleeping, I was thoroughly enjoying my new Shmitta book. (For the record, it's by Rav Yosef Zvi Rimon: if you want a simple, clear, and thorough text, this is it. Available in English and Hebrew from who-knows-where.)

Also, on Friday night, they announced in shul that, um, well, they didn't have any food for kiddush tomorrow, so please bring what you can. Bamba had been on sale, and we also got ourselves nearly a kilogram of chummus. So we brought that, along with some extra sodas (you had to buy 4 to get the sale price) and teas (3 for the sale price). And Husbinator knocked everyone's socks off by bringing a bottle of Jim Beam. Now everyone knows who we are :) Hey, the mishna says, "Buy yourself a friend!"
