How I did it
How to stop biting my nails
It took me
1 month
It made me
Spicier.

How I did it: If you really REALLY really want to quit... here it goes:Slice open one really hot jalapenos....Take out a seed and rub it all underneath your fingernails.(Use a glove on the hand you pick it up with, the goal is to get it only under the nails... not all over your fingers.)Repeat with all 10 nails once a day... after about a week you will bite no more.

How to learn Hebrew Alphabet
It took me
3 days
It made me
feel smarter

How I did it: I just made up my mind to do it and I did it.I also taught it to my husband... teaching helps me learn it because you have to be repetitive.  It's all part of the bigger picture... learning to speak Hebrew! Read how I did it…

eat only fruit for 1 week
Why, you say? 10 months ago

My reason for eating only fruit for one week is pretty simple:
Healthy living, Happy loving, and Holy Shabbat!
LoL. It doesn’t have to make sense to you…

I just got home from the store and I stocked up on fresh and frozen fruits, canned fruit, fruit juice, water, and dehydrated fruit!

Don’t worry… I AM A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL.

This is a great way to detox and make your skin GLOW… but be sure to take a multi vitamin every day to get all the good stuff.

Wish me luck…I never said it was easy…

keep shabbat
Excited to keep Shabbat 10 months ago

I want to keep Shabbat, the only excuse I have to make is that we will be driving 53 miles just to go to shul. Other than that bit of work I will be trying my hardest to observe this holy time as best as I can.

I think the hardest part will be not using the phone or getting take-out… oh, or maybe not shopping. Oh well, it will be for the best!

Shalom!

learn hebrew
Been at it about 3 months! 10 months ago

Shalom!

I have been studying to “Medaber Ivrit” (Speak Hebrew) for about 3 months. I nailed the Alef-Bet in only 3 days and now I have two blessings memorized, the Sh’ma and the Modeh Ani!

I use little stickers all over my house to help me memorize common items like a fork (mahzleg) or flowers (praheem). I think I am picking it up pretty quickly, and this Saturday I will be attending my 1st jewish shabbat service!!!

I’m one excited gentile!
