40 year old frum virgin: How not having sex ruined my life!
I didn’t know what blogs were when I stumbled upon Nice Jewish Girl back in 2005, it was super interesting to read about a frum girl struggling with her natural sex drive and the halachic requirements of shomer negiah. She just updated her blog for the first time in 5 years and it’s terribly sad to read about how being ...
Read More40 more challot for the girl with big hips
I started to read this in the shul bulletin and sighed. We have many very spiritual folks in our shul, and one single young lady — a very special girl, with great talent in fabric arts, sheitel making, and I’m told she has a great voice too. But she’s not very attractive. You could say she has a face for ...

Read More2am Knishes on Broughton? Oh HELLS yeah
Here in Slowvannah party people have a problem: Bars are open as late as you can hang, but there’s nothing to eat north of Victory after 10pm but ick pizza that looks and tastes suspiciously like snot on cardboard.It’s an entrepreneurial no-brainer, really: Drunk people need food. Make something cheap, easy and utensil-unnecessary and get it to them. Seeing as ...
Read More22 Women Visionaries Get the Recognition they Deserve
The Jewish community seems to love making lists of its best and brightest. Every time a new list is announced, we cringe to see how many women have made the cut. Two out of 10? Five out of 50? Seven out of 50? Let’s not forget the National Museum of American Jewish History poll where women made up 47 of ...
Read More20 ways you know you’re in a frummy house
I’ve been in a lot of frummy homes in my day, I myself grew up in a very non-frummy home – complete with swimsuit models adorning our walls and the large television. We had very few seforim that were in public, my fathers gemara of the week and a mikraos gedolos which my father used, besides this we had a ...

Read MoreYou Own Personal Lorax
One of the many things I appreciate about Judaism (which is longer than the list of the things I don’t appreciate, promise) is that we have a whole holiday dedicated just to trees.Tu B’Shvat celebrates the “New Year” for our leafy friends and the emergence of the first blooms of the new cycle. Some of you are looking out the ...
Read MoreSimcha and Bitachon
What does bitachon really mean and how do we acquire it?You cannot have trust without faith as it says, “Those who know Your name trust in you.” What is Hashem’s name? The word Hashem literally means, “the name” but here it refers to the letters, “yud, keh, vuv, keh,” which have enormous symbolic value. They are a contraction of the ...

Read More101 reasons why I want to get married
So I found this really super lame post called 101 reasons to get married, so lame was it (I would love to articulate the lameness of it a bit more – but I don’t want to make the author of it commit suicide, so let’s just saw it made me want to puke into the jar I just opened for ...
