Shabbat shalom from Israel! Tamar Sandler

Hey! I can’t believe we haven’t seen each other in such a long time!!!!!!!! My Shabbats have been so uneventful without having all of you to talk to and hang out with. It’s sad knowing Oona and I don’t get to play matchmaker with the place cards (just kidding never happened ☺) . It’s sad…
