In Which Sarah Goes to Paris

craving fulfillment

(see tory's latest posts for a eurodisney update and PICS, mine will not be right now)

I just ate what the French call a "new York bagel": pastrami, mayo, israeli pickles, more mayo, and a tomato on a poppy seed bagel. I mean, it's no Bagel Bob's but it definitely did the trick. And though I spent a little more at Hollywood Bagels, Paris than I wanted to, it fulfilled a craving that was, until now, unceasing.

I leave for Croatia in twenty-four hours and I am so excited. I have a new guide book and I have learned of all the wonders of Croatia. Its many steaks stuffed-with-pork-and-oil specialties and its many clothing-optional beaches.
I haven't even had a chance to get excited for Greece, which is only ten days away!

Today, to prepare for my trip I bought a box of egg matzos and a box of chocolate covered matzos. The former is for my enjoyment. The latter is a thank you gift for the Croatian rabbi who will be welcoming my goy boyfriend and I into his home for his Passover Seder.

All in all I have a feeling the next few weeks will be pretty exciting.

Missing Sarah and wanting to let her and the rest of the world know. Sounds like she should have been the "Rabbi" for the seder in Croatia. Well, maybe another time. Wondering whether it was warm enough to take advantage of clothing optional beaches?

Hope you get to Greece on time and enjoy it. Let me know if you like Santorini. In Athens, at the authentic restaurants we just went into the kitchen and pointed to what we wanted to eat.

Don't forget to see the ruins - you can't come home without seeing all these amazing antiquities.

Love, Mom

p.s. Hi - to all of Sarah's friends!
