And if I blog seven days in a row, my GMA said that she would give me a really special prize too.... So now I have some incentive.
Plus, I have chosen a good time to step up to the challenge as a lot is happening in good ole J'lem. From March Madness in Jerusalem, to the approaching Passover holiday, to vacation starting tomorrow, I think I will have plenty to blog about.
So to begin my blogging endeavor, I would like to share a warning to all those who are living in Israel and buying Matzah for the upcoming Passover holiday. Thanks to our good friends in Boston, Charlotte and Daniella, for sending us this article and warning us about this possible catastrophe.
See you tomorrow,

Jerusalem (AP) -- Israel's Chief Rabbinate is warning
Israeli citizens to be on the lookout for pirate matzah.

A week before the start of the holiday of Passover, Israeli
police raided a warehouse containing a 7-ton stockpile of
matzah with fake kosher certificates.

Matzah is flat, unleavened bread Jews eat during the
weeklong holiday instead of regular bread.
Israel's Chief Rabbinate published photos Wednesday of the
matzah packages, warning shoppers not to buy them. The
rabbinate suspects that non-kosher flour was used to make the
matzah. "I can't believe that someone would do something like
that," said Roy Wolf, manager of a leading matzah factory in
Israel, after receiving calls from concerned customers.
