Welcome to Litsy!

I planned to do a TON of cycling on my vacation, but so far I‘ve only had one day where it wasn‘t pelting down rain and/or so smokey I couldn‘t safely spend 8+ hours outside. Sigh.

So today I went shopping with my mum instead. I came away with some much-needed new clothes and a couple of books: the tagged, plus an omnibus of three culinary mysteries from the 1980s.

Yezierska‘s stories are exactly what I feel as an American Jew. Reconciling inherited traditions and modern life. Things aren‘t bad or good, merely different. The best road through life is live and let live while honoring your own history and family.
Through her stories I feel more connected with my culture and my immigrant ancestors.

I enjoyed listening to this in the car yesterday. It was fun to hear about the day to day life of this 1920‘s Brooklyn family.

Our goal should be to help improve the lot of others in line with God‘s covenantal expectations that we are to be concerned with justice and human dignity.

I wish you all peace. #shabbatshalom
