Jewish women, especially orthodox Jewish women cover their hair after they get married. Some orthodox women will wear a hat at all times but still let their natural hair be seen, others will cover it entirely and not let anyone but their husband see their natural hair, by wearing a scarf called a Tichel that completely covers their hair, or a wig called a Sheitel (which, if I'm not mistaken, Clem's mom was wearing).MarleysGh0st wrote:Translation, please?

BTW, Clem, I got the sense that Kara wore the Beret not so much as a fashion statement but that she is Shoma Shabbas based on the photo of her husband. Am I correct? If so, that would make BAM an all orthodox Jewish contestent day. What are the odds? Maybe a minyan to one?

We joked that the show just didn't want to spring for kosher food for two different days. But truth be told that was right around the holidays and there just weren't that many tape days we could make at that time which makes it less of a coincidence.
I thought the beret looked good on her.
Shomer Shabbos generally refers to people who try to adhere as strictly as possible to the laws of the Sabbath, no use of electricity, no riding in vehicles (there are things like Shabbos Elevators that are allowed), rules on tearing or creating things, lighting fires, etc. It also extends to keeping kosher at all times and various other laws, customs and traditions.
