Shana tova (happy new year)!

DSC06349

On Friday, I celebrated Rosh Hashanah, or the Jewish new year with my boyfriend. It included wine and wonderful food that my boyfriend had cooked for us. It was all so delicious! I think Rosh Hashanah is my favourite Jewish holiday since it is always so festive, you eat good food, and it's a new year with new beginnings! So, happy new year!

Tunisian chickpea soup with parsley. I think this is the best soup I have ever tasted in my life.

Those honey cakes look incredible! Are they in the shape of roses? That's fantastic! It was a mistake reading this post on an empty stomach, though.
Your boyfriend has cool hair.
Speaking of hair, I like whatever is black in yours!

SV: En god nyhet - man trenger ikke å kunne noe som helst html for å bruke wordpress :) Det er noen ting - f.eks. å legge bilder i sidebar'en - som man trenger html til, men dette finner man ferdige koder for i forumet eller i supporten til wordpress, og det er bare å "følge oppskriften". Å ha et eget domenenavn vil bare si at man rett og slett har en ny, helt egen adresse til bloggen sin, det har ingen innvirkning på oppbygningen av bloggen din, eller innholdet :) Når det gjelder å flytte innholdet fra Blogger til Wordpress, så vet jeg at det går an, men jeg vet ikke hvor bra det fungerer. Jeg lagde bare en ny blogg i wordpress, og la en link til den gamle på "about me"-siden min.
