F Is for Friendship: Hard and Fast Freindship

I guess as fasters go I’m a pretty good one. Not that I enjoy fasting — I don’t does anyone? But I can manage pretty well without eating and drinking for a day and that’s a lot more than most of my friends can say.

So when Penina called me two weeks before Tisha B’Av and said “I have a great idea let’s make a Tisha B’Av day camp together ” I agreed.

“Sounds good ” I said.

“Awesome ” Penina said. “My mother said we can use our basement and I already have like 20 kids from my neighborhood signed up.”

“Already signed up?” I asked. “And you’re only asking me about this now?”
