The Season of Bejewelled Bazoombas…

Kitty Crosby — Mon, 18 Feb 2013 22:51:54 +0000

The girls and I were at the mall this past week in search of nice spring shirts that were long enough to cover the midriff of my daughters that I think are now up to somewhere around 5 foot 9 and 5 foot 10. I’ve already been on my diatribe about dressing teenage daughters with [...]

I hereby admit…

Kitty Crosby — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 21:52:09 +0000

I, hereby admit publically, I am a hypocrite. I would like to think that I am not. I imagine myself being openly accepting of everyone around me all the time. However, last night, while watching Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding I found myself narrating the grammar (and clothing, hair, car oil for tanning and on [...]

A love letter…

Kitty Crosby — Fri, 18 Jan 2013 00:10:56 +0000

This week my blog isn’t Jewish as much as it is personal. Almost every blog here is political, controversial and always Jewish based. I always try to write about something uplifting and poke fun at our family’s growing pains and living Jewish in a small southern town. This past week, our small town has experienced [...]

If you don’t wear panties you won’t get a wedgie…

“If you don’t wear panties you won’t get a wedgie mommy.” Madeline Grace age 6. How can I argue with that? That comment wasn’t the first indication my youngest preferred comfort over fashion. My Madeline was a bit of a nudist. Nudie on the beach. Nudie running down the cul de sac. Nudie under her [...]

Dabbling on the dark side.

I have never been a fan of meat. I remember sitting for hours as a small child with a cold greasy glob of something. I’m sure that it was delectable to meat eaters before it congealed into a half chewed and spit out lump on my plate. There are photos of me asleep in a [...]

Good Yenta, Bad Yenta

Kitty Crosby — Thu, 03 Jan 2013 21:53:45 +0000

I have always known what a true southern momma is like. I have watched many matriarchs throughout all the years of living in Kentucky and southern Alabama. A good southern momma knows where her children are, what they are doing, what they are wearing, texting, Facebook-ing, eating, and who they are talking to at any [...]

The Menorah is in the freezer

Kitty Crosby — Mon, 31 Dec 2012 23:34:32 +0000

The Menorah is in the freezer… of course. I never know what to do with myself on New Year’s Eve. My husband is not a party person so going to one is not on the list. We spent most of our lives in southern Alabama (War Eagle baby. Yes… bellowing that is a requirement. One [...]

Is anyone ever Jewish enough?

Kitty Crosby — Fri, 28 Dec 2012 16:45:17 +0000

Let the preparations for Shabbat begin! The bread is rising. Soup is slow simmering, vegetarian and kosher. Now I sit and look over the variety of Jewish Blogs out there in the world of cyber information. Then at my very Scottish looking, blond and redhead children, I wonder… what exactly is Jewish? Who am I [...]

Out of the Jewish Closet During Christmas

Kitty Crosby — Thu, 27 Dec 2012 17:00:25 +0000

What an odd time of the year to begin a Jewish Momma Blog. The invitation to write is a wonderful surprise. But, this also puts me in a position of being 100% out there for the world to see and hear. My topics are normally light hearted and a look into our blended religion family. [...]
