No conflict here...

Shabbat dinner is the part of Judaism I can really get behind... it was my favorite part from the very beginning. And I'm thrilled to betsy about it today... I have my challah rising, plans for everyone to get a nice bath and have the house clean and pretty in preparation. I think this is such a lovely tradition and it's so important to me, I think, because we didn't really do it all that often when I was little. Or when my poor mother tried, Scott usually managed to stage some huge drama that ruined the whole thing.
