I have been busy:

Not very professional!
When we managed to get it to this, mainly thanks to Joe

Good enough to dance in
I took him to Israel:

November 2010, Bat Yam, Israel

Sunny Israeli November
and treated him to all sorts of these:

Yummy Israeli Munchies and some beer
The purpose of the trip was visiting my mother:

Strolling in Mahne Yehuda Market with my mother
and meeting the new member of our family:

The latest addition to our family: Noam

Noam, December 3, 2010
In Mahne Yehuda – the famous market of Jerusalem, I even managed to find this:

Not really a great find!
Which is really nothing compared to other things this lovely place has to offer:

General view of one of the alleys of Mahne Yehuda, Jerusalem

Lovely huge Eggplants

Sweets - Halva and Baklawa
and then we came back to this:

The view that greeted me in the morning after we returned
which believe it or not, made me very happy.
You’re back! :D
Noam is beautiful. The whole trip looks wonderful. Does it really get cold enough in Israel for handknits?

Noam is a good reason to visit, as is your mother. The market is magnificent and the eggplant, oh my, is beautiful. It’s nice to hear you’re back! You’ve been missed.
What a wonderful trip! The eggplant! Oh, my. . . the eggplant! Your mother is beautiful — as is little Noam (such big eyes he has!). Thanks for sharing your trip with us!
