I have no sketches of Shushan . . . but have been thinking that would be a good idea if I can gear myself up to do that. Meanwhile, here's another image of Esther.
Here's something interesting. The Talmud line that some translate as "Be happy; it's Adar," has also been translated as, "When the month of Adar arrives, happiness increases." The Jewish magaine has a drash on this translation. If you're short on time, just read the last two paragraphs on that page. It talks about miracles of nature (e.g. Passover story) and miracles related to the way events unfold in our lives (e.g. Purim story). If you want to catch the real spirit of increasing happiness, check out this blog entry all about Purim in an Israeli school -- amazing fun!
I'm posting a noisemaker tonight . . . not because anyone mentioned whatshisname but because I have one more noisemaker that has not been posted. This clown-lips whistle can be held between the teeth. It sounds a bit like a siren.
