It's nice to see you, Erin, esp seeing you so happy.
Saffron: But we've been wed. Aren't we to become one flesh? Mal: Well, no, uh... We're still two fleshes here, and I think that your flesh ought to sleep somewhere else.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I AM happy! It's weird, but nice. I have felt very cut off from the internet

Interesting. The newest American Girl doll is Jewish. [link] Looks interesting, and even managed to not offend Abe Foxman, who's offended by pretty much everything in the world. I kind of wish they'd picked an earlier time period than 1914, though -- the first Jewish community in what would become the US was in New Amsterdam in 1653, but I can think of barely any popular culture depictions of Jews in America before about 1880.

“Not dead yet!”
My guess, Hil, is that they chose that time period to coincide with the rise of the union organizations. The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire was in 1911, so I wouldn't be surprised to see something similar occur in one of the subsequent books. Or to have her father risk his job with involvement in a union.
It's definitely interesting. I suspect Abby may want one for her birthday.
