Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie icon! / Handwriting the Torah

New icon:



Trivia fact for Sunday, Feb. 28: Under Jewish law, what implement must be used in handwriting a Torah, the first five books of the Old Testament? A feather quill from a kosher bird, usually a goose or a turkey. An iron or metal writing implement cannot be used because it could puncture the parchment document and because metal, which is used in making weapons, is considered a symbol of death.
