Best of the Jewish/Israeli Blogosphere #303

Welcome to the February 6, 2011 edition of haveil havalim. Here is the standard boilerplate

Founded by Soccer Dad, Haveil Havalim is a carnival of Jewish blogs — a weekly collection of Jewish and Israeli blog highlights, tidbits and points of interest collected from blogs all around the world. It’s hosted by different bloggers each week and coordinated by me.

My apologies for not having a more comprehensive HH, but I have been jammed for time so this sort of a makeshift, thrown together deal. We need hosts. It would be great if you could help carry the load along with the others who have stepped up. And now on to our carnival:

The Rebbetzin’s Husband presents What Parents Do and Defrocking a chassid. Kiss a Mezuzah, one of our newer hosts and someone who has helped quite a bit presents My Rabbi Made Me Buy an iPhone

Israelity shared Cow chocolate, Just another day in the neighborhood and Egypt revolt strangely missing Israeli element.

Seraphic Secret offers Israel, Alone Again. Daniel Ben Shmuel presents Reflections on “Meraglim” (the documentary) and Animal Day In Egypt
