The Holiday Spirit

by DK


Since I don’t really celebrate Chanukah formally, I guess I have to credit Festivus for providing the right backdrop for a change in my feelings towards Jewlicious, a website I have been known to, er, disagree with.

This week I met both Esther and Grand Mufti of Jewlicious.

Esther I met at Less Nessman’s rocking gig at Makor on Thursday, and I have to say, she is just as nice a person as her blog and writing suggests.

EV of Jewschool (Asaf was there as well!) introduced me to Grand Mufti at Heebonism on Sat. night, and he is definitely the kind of guy that I could talk to for hours, but there were girls there. I owe him a drink, (I completely spaced that at the time…don’t ask) so I hope that will happen soon.

You can’t get along with everyone from the other team, but I have liked both people I have met so far from Jewlicious, and I would enjoy meeting some of the other bloggers from Jewlicious as well.

Additionally, I feel comfortable that my core issues of contention have been settled.

Sure I have had some rough spots in my relationship with Jewlicious, but I have also found most of them engaging, and I have certainly learned a lot about blogging from them. Besides Jewschool itself (of course), Jewlicious has been an important site for me in my ongoing transition from a strictly print background to one that includes web media, as well as illuminating how it’s different.

So thanks, guys. I have added a link to your site in token gratitude.

Hehe, nice to meet you too. And Muffti will collect that drink whenever you are ready to buy it :) Anyhow, glad we can all get along.

Dude, if you met me, you’d like me too. Ask Muffti.

Happy Festivus.

I won’t even suggest that you two should get married. I’ll just say that I like both of you, and, dude, what a cute picture…

Kelsey, good to finally “re-meet” you.

And apologies, Lilit, but I’ve already been photographed with at least two other bloggermen (EV and Muffti) this month, so I’ll have to check with them to see if either of them has bought me a ring yet. After all, it’s only right…

Happy new year to all!

I agree - that pic of you is so yummy.

And some links thrown my way would be good too, DK.
