Jewlicious began 5 years ago on July 2004. In that time we have written nearly 5,000 posts and generated nearly 70,000 comments. We've also run 5 Jewlicious Festivals, the last of which attracted nearly 1000 participants, much to the consternation of the Long Beach Fire Department I'm sure. I've been blessed to be associated with some of the coolest people I know as fellow writers, including The Middle and Muffti who were here right from the get go. Running Jewlicious is often a thankless task. Unlike others, we never got fancy shmancy funding for offices in New York equipped with a wet bar, ping pong and fooz ball tables. But I did get to meet and befriend some awesome people, like the army of volunteers that make the Jewlicious Festival happen and most notably Rachel Bookstein, her husband Rabbi Yonah, and their totally edible children.

Penelope: Great post! Great contest! A VIP weekend in Trieste, Italy? I am SO there!
pea: I enjoyed the interplay between Vicki and her husband. The actual story took second place to that. I love Jewlicious and am looking forward to more from Vicki!
USA: Trainers consulted with the Jewish Cultural Center and they Ok'd it? What's wrong with their Jewish Cultural Center. I find all the humor implied here distasteful including using Giraffes instead or that this might be OK'd in the US because we never had pogroms. This is not humor and is anti-Semitic wherever it is in the world. It's not funny in any form. Thank G-d Jews have left Russia and to the author of this article thank you for writing it, but don't try so hard to be apologetic by adding humor to what you know is downright disgusting.
