And then this Bear, Pooh Bear, Winnie-the-Pooh, F.O.P. (Friend of Piglet's), R.C. (Rabbit's Companion), P.D. (Pole Discoverer), E.C. and T.F.

jewish mothers

I ran into a (yeshivish, and somewhat strange) woman from my building. I've spoken to her two or three times and this time somehow it came up that i'm getting marreid in a week. After the normal mazel tovs, she asked,

"So, are you taking prenatal vitamins?"

I was retrospectively tempted to say something about how I was debating between folic acid and synthetic estrogen, but really I just said,

"Thanks. That's a good idea."

The better part of valor.
