If you put the cell phone in a sock, would you ever consider using it in the rice?

Yeah, when I read roza's suggestion, my first thought was - whoa, that would send rice flying all over the room!

There is definitely a "singles crisis" in my husband's sock drawer.

Are you looking only for socks with yichus? LOL

actually yes. I think if you take a sock from such a family, it would be beneath their standards to look elsewhere! LOL

Shoes are beneath their standards.

Maybe the Sock Dating Agency can date my husband's sock I found under the bed... My guess is Jurassic Era. Twisted Evil

I think the idea is good, but I posted above about sock puppetry, feeling that it takes someone off the derech. Who knows how many hands go in that thing before it makes a lifetime commitment?

Well, now we are talking! I've been imagining a sock pairing imamother meeting for a long time!

Anyone have a shidduch for an old xmas stocking (orthodox conversion).

Can one shidduch a 40 denier with a 15 denier of the same color or is that considered marrying "out"?

grin

Tue, Apr 08 2008, 3:36 pm

maybe it depends if they date on the "out"side of the drawer or not?

I have some young socks- they aren't of marriageable age yet. Can we just do tenoyim & then wait till they are old enough?
