Hey Everyone,
I haven't spoken to many of you in quite some time. It seems that at around this time of the year, after Chanukah till Purim, we get settled in, immerse ourselves in our own lives, and wait out the cold in the hopes of warm weather and summer freedom. With that said, I will share some of the events of the past few weeks.
We recently returned from a trip to Montreal where we stayed in the heart of the old Montreal, a few blocks from the Olympic center and close to china town (yes they have a china town there too). Overall the trip was enjoyable, pretty cool sights, extremely pricey, and tons of kosher food. It seems out there that the Jewish community is in LOVE with Chinese food and sushi. You cannot go into a cafe, pizza store, Israeli restaurant, or the kosher market without being offered General Tzo's and a California roll. Ironically, the night before we left we went out to a Sushi restaurant in Manhattan (our first time in a year or so).
We spent last weekend by Tuli and Chani Frankel, friends of ours from Crown Heights, but now living in prospect heights. Simcha Aron Cyrulnik, Avi Stein, Shmari Rodman, and Aryeh Levin joined us. If that wasn't enough, on Moztei Shabbos we went out for some pizza and were further joined by Yossi and Dov Notik, Justin Forsberg, Sholi and Dovi Goodman, and a few other friends. I couldn't help but be amazed at how different, yet connected all of us still are.
For the rest, life is going well, I am working very hard at both my jobs. Feeling slightly intimidated by it all, but enjoying the experience nonetheless.
We are headed out to California in 2 weeks, which should be fun.
Hope everyone is doing amazing and would love to hear from you all
Love
Idaho and the always-lovely Etta
Shabbat Shalom
