Happy 45th Anniversary to us!
It's been quite a ride.
Here's the back-story. :)
A tallit-and-tefillin-wearing woman in a traditional Conservative synagogue?! An unorthodox—and non-orthodox—perspective on Jews and Judaism from a perpetual misfit. This blog, welcoming the entire Jewish community, is dedicated to those who take Judaism seriously, but not necessarily literally.
Once upon a time, I belonged to a left-wing egalitarian Conservative synagogue, where I was one of a number of women who wore a tallit—and one of the few members who used an Orthodox prayer book (adding the Mothers, of course). Having moved since then, I now belong to a right-wing traditional Conservative synagogue, where I’m almost always the only woman wearing a tallit—and one of the few members who adds the Mothers. I seem destined to be forever . . . on the fringe.

Happy Anniversary! I clicked your "backstory" link and it reminded me that when I met you and your husband at Limmud 8 years ago, I was so impressed that the two of you were dancing up a storm in the aisles of the Saturday night concert. May you have many, many more years of dancing together!
David, thanks so much! And from your mouth to G!d's ear!
