Can you believe this is the first chocolate fudge cake I've ever made? I've recently realised that there are quite a few 'classic' bakes that I haven't made or featured on this blog and I would like to change that. I was also looking through my recipe books over the weekend and there were so many recipes that I've never made but I really want to try. So I'm going to make an effort to not only make more from ...

Someone has published a book filled with questions asked of Rav Chaim Kanievsky and his answers.

In the book, an interesting question posed to Rav Kanievsky is if someone cannot get his children into his school of choice because he is Sefardi with an obviously sefardic name, would he be allowed to change his name ot an Ashkenazi name or would that be considered deceitful?

Rav Kanievsky answered that if he knows he can get his kid into the school and the only impediment is the name... Читать дальше...

Dressing women as a personal stylist is a lot of fun. I really do love it. However, simply because every woman on the planet has their fair share of body issues, knowing how to dress these concerns is a part of a stylist's job that few people consider.

Suicide

About five months ago Toys 'R Us announced it was going to be doing away with dividing its toys for sale by gender. No longer would there be sections of toys for boys and sections for girls. Rather, all toys would be together and each person could choose whatever toy he or she preferred without having to have an entire section of toys away from his or her likely discovery.

The announcement was... Читать дальше...

As anyone with eyes open has seen for years now in the American political context, the Republican party has long used racial resentment cynically, as a tool to get white working-class voters to vote against their own economic self-interest. As anyone with eyes open has also seen, those working-class white voters have included an ample proportion of working-class white Catholics in the North who deny any racial motivation for their decision to abandon the Democratic party for the GOP, while strong...

Tresa is one of my besties. My besties are a short list of friends that I would walk over hot coals for. And, one thing I always do when she comes over and we're having eats, which is always, is that I pull out something with crunch and crisp. It doesn't matter. If Miss T is eating hot creamy oatmeal, she wants a little crunch with it. Even if it's just a few pretzels that, by the way, are awesome with hot creamy sweet oatmeal!
