Tel Aviv Diary: Karen Alkalay-Gut

Right.
Who ever celebrates Valentine’s Day in Israel except for restaurants and underwear shops? I actually bought Ezi a bouquet of vegetables, but that was it. We’ve got Tu’B'Av for a love day, which is more of a day of first love, and I don’t think we need a kind of confirmation of adoration. If we do some kind of reaffirmation of vows it would probably be something like Tuvya’s “Do I What?” to the question of ‘do you love me?’ And i like it that way
