Barbara Bond posted this message on ESRAlist: As usual I was so rushed before my visit to the states that I almost forgot to get the prerequisite gifts so I called ESRA . WOW .. were the Ethiopian gifts appreciated?

The new playing cards went over very well not only with the 10-12 year old gang but also with my own sophisticated bridge gang of more than 50 years.

The new mezuzot are being honored as folk art on the mantels of each bedroom in my son's new house.
