Haveil Havalim #110

Welcome to the 110th edition of Haveil Havalim the Jewish Blogging Carnival. We'll call this the "Lesson edition."

From Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

And how many hours a day did you do lessons?' said Alice, in a hurry to change the subject.

`Ten hours the first day,' said the Mock Turtle: `nine the next, and so on.'

`What a curious plan!' exclaimed Alice.

`That's the reason they're called lessons,' the Gryphon remarked: `because they lessen from day to day.'

This was quite a new idea to Alice, and she thought it over a little before she made her next remark. `Then the eleventh day must have been a holiday?'

`Of course it was,' said the Mock Turtle.

`And how did you manage on the twelfth?' Alice went on eagerly.

`That's enough about lessons,' the Gryphon interrupted in a very decided tone: `tell her something about the games now.'

111 March 25 - Soccer Dad
April 1 - Pesach Vacation
April 8 - Pesach Vacation
112 April 15 YidWithLid

As of now the next two weeks I'll be hosting. However is someone decides that he/she wants to host on the 25th let me know at dhgerstman at hotmail dot com.

I don't intend to have Haveil Havalim either the week before Pesach or on Chol Hamoed. If there is anyone who really wants to host it on Chol Hamoed, we can talk, but April 1 is too close and I'm sure preparations will require a lot more of everyone's time.

In addition to e-mail you may submit entries to Haveil Havalim using the submission form over at BlogCarnival. Or feel free to e-mail me at dhgerstman at hotmail dot com.

Also if you'd like to host an upcoming edition e-mail me at the above address.

Remember, that while the hosts and hostesses of Haveil Havalim do a wonderful job of editing and searching for interesting posts, they can't see everything. If you want a better chance of being included in Haveil Havalim please submit one or two posts for inclusion.
