>> Challah *is* the queen of bread, and on Sunday morning it makes *awesome* French toast. I learnt this firsthand while living in a partly-Jewish household for a bit. <<

I once made bread pudding with challah.

>> The two things I love about my Jewish friends... damn, they can *cook*... and they *think*. <<

Yes, I've noticed that my Jewish friends tend to be adept at debating.

>> One of them told me that her Rabbi told her that you could sin, you could even not believe in G-d, and still be a good Jew... but you could not be *uneducated*, and still be a good Jew. <<

Wow.

>> Looking forward to more of this. <<

Yay! Happily it turns out that I have a good handful of readers who are familiar with Jamaica Plain, so perhaps more prompts will appear in future fishbowls, creative jams, etc.
