Purim Links, Baby Names and More

March 18, 2011 by Hannah Katsman

Purim is coming soon! Here are links for the holiday and more.

1. I posted about Israeli Baby Names at the Nameberry blog.
2. Our Shiputzim translates the Megillah into Heblish.
3. Jacob Richman has a wonderful collection of videos and websites for Purim.
4. In light of the earthquake in Japan, this website helps you prepare for emergencies.
5. Better late than never: I posted a video on making hamantashen at Cooking Manager.
6. Is donated breastmilk safe? Read about breastmilk ice cream and health at Green Prophet.
7. Haaretz writes about an initiative to match up Orthodox homosexual men and women for marriage.
8. I found this interesting post on Israeli rudeness by a blogger I’d never seen before.
9. Chana Jenny Weisberg shared a moving story about her neighbor.
10. Rafi shares a cute video on Purim costumes in Mea Shearim. If you still don’t have a Purim costume, you can get ideas here.

Shabbat shalom and Purim Sameach to all!

  Frayda, you’re the first one to comment about it! Thanks. I heard it’s hard to view on Blackberry, though–working on it.
