Gender Female

Occupation Professional Jew
Location Sarasota, Florida, United States
Introduction I'm a nice Jewish girl...in her 50s, so maybe not a girl anymore...with kids (2), dogs (4), parrots (3), turtle (1) and a husband. And a yen to go to rabbinic school. But there are still some unresolved issues that need ironing out -- when? where? how to pay? am I insane? etc.
Interests Judaism, Jewish music, Torah study, Siberian Huskies, dragons, Sarasota High School Drama Guild
Favorite Movies I'll cop to having a weak spot for romantic comedies; also the Shrek movies (great for marathons on depressed days) and light fare like Enchanted and Death at a Funeral (the original). I'm not deep. Get over it.
Favorite Music I live and drive with teenagers... therefore most of my musical consumption is pop/rock. Unless we're talking about Debbie Friedman, et al. Love that beautiful modern liturgical music. Also Missy Higgins and Joshua Radin.
Favorite Books Jewish storybooks and fairy tales -- LOVE that stuff!

You can punch a hole in an apple using a straw. How do you think that makes your milkshake feel?

Never punched an apple with a straw, but if you cut it sideways with a knife (i.e. across the center instead of from top to bottom) you'll see a star inside it. There's a lovely story about how it got there. Ask me sometime.
