My egg salad is just not the same
I am so blessed to be in the land of Israel.
Berg Productions, Jeff and myself filmed at an Air Force Museum in Beer Sheba. I climbed in and out of a few of the planes. Yes, I have this picture of me flying and the Russians being very afraid. Brig. General Yakkov Turner started this museum so that everyone could see the different kinds of airplane the IAF used during the attacks from Israel’s enemies. The museum is next to the air base, so we were treated to the sounds of aircraft taking off and landing. Interesting fact: it take six minutes to fly in a jet from one end of Israel to the other. Think about that for a minute.
Will and I went to hear Taki (Will’s former roommate) at the Jerusalem Symphony. Taki is the first oboe in the symphony. Mahler’s One was especially well done. It was a long day, but well worth it. I am not sure what is going on with the Jerusalem Symphony. Very few people attended the concert. It was sad to see so many empty seats.
The weather is in the mid 60’s and a little breezy and sunny. Everyone is rushing around getting ready for Shabbat. I have a few last minute things to do also. Flowers and some grocery shopping.
Talked with Ohed this morning at the B&B. It seems he has bought another B&B. This one in Rehavia. So, all in all, Baka, German Colony, and Rehavia. We laughed about him having an empire. He has done well.
Breakfast was the usual fare of fresh veggies, scrambled eggs, pasta, coffee, toast, yogurts, cheeses and labanes. They must have a new chef, because my egg salad is just not the same. I am one of few Americans at the B&B. The language I hear most is French, German and then some British.
May you have a blessed Shabbat.

Dear Sandra,
Six Minutes!! Wow! That puts the size of Israel in perspective doesn’t it. It is hard to observe Shabbat in a small Gentile Texas town, but we do what we can. We have a Torah portion Bible Study on Saturday mornings. We are convicted that although Sunday worship honors the Lord and He is pleased, He, Himself chose and perfers the Sabbath. I Love Israeli breakfasts, I still fix them at home sometimes! Imagine fish and salad for breakfast! Have you ever had egg salad made with Mayo and Blue Cheese? It sounds a little different but is very good. I understand this is favourite in South America. I hate to hear about the small attendance at the symphony, it seems no one loves real beauty anymore. We are big fans of Zola’s music. We are hoping to go to the symphony in W April 17th in Waco. All our best. Shalom
