Destressing the Chocolate Way

There's never a dull moment in Israel and today we decided to be part of the crowd in a fun competition taking place. The company "Elite" that makes yummy chocolates (amongst a few other products such as coffee) has a fun competition on the go. Purchase a slab or chocolate of their Origamoo range or אוריגמו. You can select the design of the paper from a few different wrappers and then the fun begins. Carefully remove the whole wrapper and follow the instructions on youtube for how to make up an Elite cow. 

The instructions are all in Hebrew so you get to practice your reading in Hebrew. They give some nice encouragement along the way too.

Take a photograph and share it on FB along with a tag that Elite requests and you now become part of the "Elite club". 

It's a fun way to de-stress from all that is happening in the world and to feel apart of the larger group of chocolate lovers in Israel. Of course, if you have managed to obtain a wrapper and gone through the process of making an Origami cow, you can now sit back and enjoy the yummy chocolate too.

Those entering have been really creative with their photographs, you'll have to visit the page on FB to find out. The images in this post are two of the ones we took after making our origami cows. Aside from the fun and de-stressing, there is another bonus, you stand in line to win an iPhone. 

Have a blessed day and stay warm as Israel prepares for another storm.

"Manners" in Israel - Get Some For Yourself Too - For Free!


ברוכים הבאים - Beruchim HaBaim!!! Welcome to Israel! It's one of the really wonderful greetings you'll hear... when you arrive! As time goes by however, you might find yourself wondering if words like "please" and "thank you" were ever a part of the Oxford Dictionary...

Please... don't forget your manners when you live in this beautiful country. In case you're wondering just what they're all about, enjoy this video. One thing that's clear is that I do know that the lessons this young man teaches us here are infinitely important, endless and perhaps some of the most powerful teachings we can take with us in our day to day activities.

Enjoy - and do share this post with your friends!

Send a 3D Selfie to Family Overseas!!!


Just when it seemed like "selfies" were the in thing - it seems that a new technology is on the arise - and Israel is in the forefront. The two young men in the video are pioneering a project to make this new technology a lot more affordable for everyone.

What does all that mean? It means being able to have a 3D photo taken of you, allowing an exact "mini-me" replica of you and your family which you can either keep yourself (if you'd prefer looking at it rather than in the mirror,) or sending to friends (who you know probably can't get enough of looking at you,) or even to family - who may in fact enjoy having a new "photo" of you on the piano or other piece of furniture!

Enjoy the video and be a part of helping these young men achieve their goal! Check out their work here - 3DUSelf
