There’s a song called ‘Live Blogging the Himmel Family Bris.’ I kind of went for it here in terms of - it was really fun to be explaining ritual circumcision in Nashville - a lot of brises are done in hospitals, but many are done in people’s homes, and there’s a lot of food, and a lot of leftovers Picture Quote #1
