Exhaustion hit me so hard the other day I couldn’t think straight, so when we had to think of a place to take our guest from abroad, I said Jaffa, thinking Eid El Fitr was over on April 1 and everything would be empty.  But not only were the restaurants crowded, there was no way to get through the streets.  Ezi did some driving up one way roads and around cars that should have been filmed and we finally got out to the more Jewish neighborhood of Puah restaurant and the other cool cafes, but by then I was so hungry nothing could satisfy me.  

I’m still exhausted but I had to confess my foolish cultural mess.  I should never have been so stupid to forget my neighbors’ holidays…
