The Best Books I Read in 2011 · Woman. Legend.Blog
http://blog.vickiboykis.com/2012/01/the-best-books-i-read-in-2011
The Best Books I Read in 2011. I realize this is post is little late, but I was otherwise. Since Mr. B gave me an iPad. For my birthday and I started commuting by train. I have been going through books like crazy. I think I must have read around 30 books last year. The hard part is finding really good books. Those are the books you don’t want to put down even though it’s 11:49 and you have work tomorrow. Fortunately, I’ve sifted through the piles and found some real gems this year. After I was finished w...
Why is Philadelphia so disgusting? · Woman. Legend.Blog
http://blog.vickiboykis.com/2012/02/why-is-philadelphia-so-disgusting
Why is Philadelphia so disgusting? So there I was last night, bone-wearily tired, coming home from class in Center City around 8:00, going to Suburban Station to take the train home. Keep in mind, that if I miss the 8:04 train, the next one is at 8:45. So I have four minutes to catch the train, or else I have to leave class early and miss some statistical knowledge truth bombs that my professor is dropping on us. I ran down the stairs to the metro and suddenly-. And why is there traffic. All of this is t...
My favorite books of 2013 · Woman. Legend.Blog
http://blog.vickiboykis.com/2013/12/my-favorite-books-of-2013
My favorite books of 2013. Basically, all I read this year were any books about Russia in 1937, so my favorite books are anything other than those books.Ok, maybe I read some other stuff, so I didn’t go insane. Here they are:. If Elizabeth Bennet had the washing of her own petticoats, Sarah often thought, she’d most likely be a sight more careful with them. Tell the Wolves I’m Home. Was it the fact that the author’s middle name was Rifka? Art and the fact that it kept making its way to best lists. June s...
In Miami and in Vapiano · Woman. Legend.Blog
http://blog.vickiboykis.com/2014/04/in-miami-and-in-vapiano
In Miami and in Vapiano. South Beach Bathers, John French Sloan 1907. By Karen Russell, is a weird jewel of a novel about a nuclear family running a slowly-dying gator wrestling park on a small island off the Gulf Coast of Florida. Russell’s Sunshine State is surreal, dreamy, swampy, thick with mud, mosquitoes, and warbling birds. The seeming impossibility of a tropical paradise combined with the exuberance and proximity of South America, the salt and heat, and, of course, a python-killing contest. Going...
Being American · Woman. Legend.Blog
http://blog.vickiboykis.com/2013/06/being-american
In spite of everything I write about my Russian and Jewish identities, there is a piece of me that is wholly American. I can’t define what it means to be American entirely, because I only notice it when I’m not in America. The last time was when we were in Italy a couple weeks ago. Maybe Naples needs to advertise more and draw in tourism dollars, I said, the wheels already turning. The city could organize a commission to combat graffiti, paint the monuments, and draw from online reviews to draw more ...

History vs Art, and other concerns | Chava's Footsteps
https://chavalah.wordpress.com/2015/02/05/history-vs-art-and-other-concerns
The journey of an interfaith Jew. February 5, 2015. History vs Art, and other concerns. At 12:32 am by chavalah. Still from the movie, “Selma,” starring David Oyelowo. The natural follow-up question might be–does that make the movie less “true”? But to be hypocritical (another component of the complexity of “truth,”) I feel disappointed that Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel was omitted from the movie, even as he marched to Selma amongst other white clergymen who were depicted, so I’ve read. The way that she ...

I’ll be the first to admit that I never watched the Star Trek television series’/movies prior to this one (why is that? Two words: Star Wars :P) but what touched me most deeply in J.J. Abrams’ 2009 foray into alternate reality was the glimpse he gave us of Vulcan-educated MC Spock’s. Relationship with his human mother, Amanda Grayson.

Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen in “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1”. This is where the meaning of the entire series comes into play.

The journey of an interfaith Jew. April 18, 2015. Finding a foothold with Passover 5775. At 8:20 pm by chavalah. This was also my niece’s second Passover, and she greeted me eating a piece of matzah. :p. She didn’t seem to like it much, but like most people she kept chewing anyway. She also seemed to like the broth from the matzah ball soup, so she’s slowly learning the ways of Ashkenazi Jewish food. Hurrah! Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.
