As for the difficulty to access your blog the problem seems to have solved itself somehow.</p>Jack commented on 'The bread of affliction'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01156fbe3e6b970b2009-04-02T10:48:54Z2009-04-02T10:48:54ZJackhttp://wwwjackbenimble.blogspot.comIt is a good reminder.

The downside to sending our children to day school is that they have very little exposure to a world of people who are far less fortunate than we are.</p>Jack commented on 'The bread of affliction'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01156ec5f533970c2009-04-02T10:48:53Z2009-04-02T10:48:53ZJackhttp://wwwjackbenimble.blogspot.comIt is a good reminder.

<p>A third-grade teacher at an expensive private school, in an attempt to raise her students' social consciousness, gave the class an assignment to write a paragraph about a poor child. The first assignment read: "Once upon a time, there was a poor little girl. She was really, really poor. Her mommy and daddy were poor, too. So were the maids, the nannies, the butler, the chauffer, the pool boy..."</p>
<p>All kidding aside, great post, and excellent suggestions. With all the griping about the economy, thank G-d most of us can still put food on the table. We should be grateful, and give to those who are less fortunate. And a Happy Pesach to you & yours.</p>RaggedyMom commented on 'The bread of affliction'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01156fb88b1e970b2009-04-02T00:44:07Z2009-04-02T00:44:07ZRaggedyMomhttp://raggedymom.blogspot.comGreat post, great reminders that will give me the motivation to keep us all going strong over the next few...<p>Great post, great reminders that will give me the motivation to keep us all going strong over the next few days!</p>
<p>As for husbands doing the shopping, when mine goes, I assume that about 85% of the list will make it home intact. The rest will be exchanged for other things (some on purpose, some not), and several extra items will make it home, prompting me to say things like, "How much tea do you think we actually need?!" At the end of the day, these gripes are really blessings.</p>Elisson commented on 'The bread of affliction'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01156ebc7fe5970c2009-04-01T20:28:08Z2009-04-01T20:28:08ZElissonhttp://elisson1.blogspot.comYou make an excellent point.

We who have should remember those that have a lot less, especially at this time of year when we eat <i>lechem oni.</i></p>
<p>As far as the dangers of food shopping on an empty stomach are concerned, my thoughts are set forth <a href="http://elisson1.blogspot.com/2005/04/cant-get-much-verse.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>. </p>Jesse commented on 'The bread of affliction'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341c581e53ef01156fb20c47970b2009-04-01T15:12:23Z2009-04-01T15:12:23ZJessehttp://anotheraliyahblog.wordpress.comThanks Trepp...I've been so wrapped up with saving every penny for Aliyah I've completely lost track of myself and the...<p>Thanks Trepp...I've been so wrapped up with saving every penny for Aliyah I've completely lost track of myself and the fact that I'm lucky enough to be able to save like that.</p>
