Rahm Time

Jacob likes to listen to the Sunday morning cable talk shows while reading the paper. Rahm Emanuel is practically screaming about the tax savings for middle-income American families. Too loud for this time of day, so Jacob offers to turn off the TV.
Other discussion topics include Jacob's tennis elbow (ouch, he may have to get a cortisone shot if the pain doesn't let up) and the fact that Ben is still sleeping ('Ben's still sleeping? hmph.')
Deborah gave me a kiss on the head before going to teach her Sunday morning classes at Temple Beth El (discussed in earlier posts).

Caloric Deprivation or Indulgent Breakfast?

The first meal of the day was Jacob's "famous" pancakes. Could the case be made that every time Jacob prepares a foodstuff it automatically becomes famous? Perhaps. Anyway, at two thick but small whole-wheat cakes per person, with approx. 10 blueberries, it was a delicious side for a complete breakfast. Except, that was the complete breakfast. Wow!
