December in HHI

I made 400 latkes for the temple. 30 pounds of potatoes, 15pounds of onions. I smelled awful. It took two days to get the smell out of my hair.

Sept 2015

Jack and Abe went through the Steeler Football game. The food is so expensive. They bought nothing worthy of food and it cost a lot.





Sitting at Nathan's baseball game. We were playing an orthodox team. I find it wrong to see the women. The little girls are weary nag leggings and long dresses. They can not play baseball. One woman has she hair in a scarf. The other woman is wearing a wig to cover her real pretty hair. The man has his scraggy beard and kippa.





Pray strings





Mothe all,covered up. The boy has long curls on each side of his hair.





And while the women are all covered up, this man can wear a pray under garment with his chest, stomach and hairy arm pits showing.
