The ages of singles are going up. People are expressing a lot of frustration with the shidduch system and with being presented shidduchim that have nothing in
Well, it is Pesach again! I love Pesach. Even though we spend so much time cleaning, it is such a special yom tov. I especially love matza. Matza is pure G-dliness. When you eat shmura matza (the special hand made matza) you are really eating G-dliness. How often can you partake of food that is
