Mission Statement

The objective of this blog is pretty straightforward. Thank G-d, I have been maintaining a seder learning with my father for as long as i can remember. Now that I have grown up a bit and become a "balabus" with my own family and my own set of daily responsibilities,  it is increasingly challenging to find consistent time to learn together, let alone trade ideas and insights on topics already covered.

After giving this much thought, a blog seems to me to be a tool that can be of some use. Insights and discussion on the topics covered can be logged here in an organized fashion, not bound to one busy schedule or another. The material is simply available, all in one place, 24 hours a day with a platform for commenting on and discussing each post.

We are currently tackling Hilchot Shabbat (from the beginning), so that will probably be the primary focus of the blog content, G-d willing. If this proves to be a convenient method of sharing Divrei Torah, I may throw in some posts relating to the Parsha, Moadim and other assorted topics ... we'll take it slow and see how it goes.

Since the blog is open to the public on the web, I figured I would do my best to keep the posts clear and accessible to a wider audience so that those who stumble upon the site may find something worth reading.

Goes without saying that nothing written here should be used as a basis for p'sak halacha. Whenever in doubt, please consult with a competent halachic authority. My aim here is to learn Hilchot Shabbat (and whatever else comes my way) as well as I can and share some thoughts l'hagdil Torah uleha'adira.
