Melissa and I have been friends and kibbitzing for a long time. And much of that friendship has taken place while we were supposed to be writing. Both of us had published pieces on Jewish websites, but we noticed something missing: none of them seemed to speak to the real-life experiences of our demographic.

This past year, I was dismayed to discover that Heritage Day fell on Rosh Hashanah, one of the most sacred holidays in the Jewish religion.

On Thursday afternoon, the URJ (Union of Reform Judaism) summer camps announced that they will not be having onsite camps this summer.

In fifty years, I have never been in my synagogue in the afternoon on Yom Kippur. This past year, however, was different.
