(I'm a little Jew boy myself. .. ) After all, it is usually qualified by an adjective such as: hot, dumb, brilliant, Diane Keaton-like, blond. By the way, you know what a shaygetz is? It's a man who thinks a shiksa is a small electric razor! (Ka-boom.) I never thought of shiksa as being derogatory.

How interesting. Great blog. Keep the good work going. In many Indian languages, “Shiksha” means a Student or disciple of a Guru from whom they master an art or a science. How interesting.

Oh such sweetness (and a little bit of sour) Thanks for giving so much Barbara with your writing! I love your blog, best of luck with the baby and the warm summer months.

I remember going out to eat there with you a few times. Of course, it closed years ago, with the lingerie shop closing years before that....which is so sad. And I don't like jarred gefelte fish--only homemade. Ladylark--I am glad to bring back memories--even if you didn't like the raisins! Thank you, Lydia. The lemon was a momentary inspiration. It turned out really, really well, though. Cat--thank you! Glad to meet you. Hope you keep coming back! Glenna--that is so funny. I haven't made shiksa balls for my parents yet. I should. They would probably like them. Then, we could have some blintzes for dessert. Not kosher, but then, neither is a shiksa. Oooh, lindy--that Jewish wedding soup sounds fabulous! I may have to make that sometime! Whee! Interesting about your daughter finding someone of a similar ethnic mixture....really neat. Risingsun--Yeah, they are really, really good. Though I am not allowed to make them again for a while, as I mentioned before. I think that in the fall, instead of having applesauce with them, I will make my Applachian hillbilly fried apples to go with the blintzes, and see how that grabs Zak....
