Does anyone have, to give away, back issues of Women's League and/or Hadassah Magazine from any year 1984 on? I have some scattered issues of both and I'd like to make a collection that doesn't look so much like a swiss cheeeze. So if any of you are cleaning out closets and drawers or overloaded magazine racks in the den or from under the sofa, might you consider sending them to hot muggy Spain?
If by chance you have no back issues of W'sL and/or Hadassah, seems like just yesterday I was yet again asking for free-b new year's calendars like those that are given out by local american and canadian jewish funeral homes or/and supermarkets. If you have any of these within reach and aren't all that bothered about sending them along to Spain, we here in Valencia would be as happy as penquins with popscicle sticks. Any number from 1 to 10 is acceptable And for a touch of the slightly silly: For anyone who happens to be in Valencia during RH/YK, don't be a stranger. La Javura will be in the Salon Ribera of the Hotel Astoria-Palace for Erev Rosh ha-Shana, Kol Nidre and Yom Kipur. The 1st and 2nd days of RH will be in the Green-painted Sinagoga here in my apartment. On Erev RH there's a fish/milk/vegetarian pot-luck buffet. I make most of the dishes which are 100% cosher. It is not for nothing that the "Introduccion al Judaismo" class spends a lot of time in the kitchen making cosher dishes from the famous canadian-born israeli Molly Lyons bar-David's cookbooks. For 99.9% of all spanish persons, kosher is a really weird albeit interesting, martian-style concept. We must remember that Spain is the only place on the planet that has been known to put bacon bits into lemon sherbert. Iamim Noraim is free. Lay lead (not a little frightening at times). Pick a chair. Have a seat. Everyone participates. Live long, prosper and I'll send a chocolate to one and all who take it upon themselves to learn spanish this year; it is a very useful language. Shana tova, may it be sweet, healthy and happy.
