It is a truth universally acknowledged in Israel that Saturday afternoon should be devoted to the nap. No matter how beautiful the weather is, no matter how many relatives are here from abroad, no matter how much work thee is to do, no matter what noise the neighbors are making, one should sleep after lunch on Saturday. We are not religious in the observation of this ritual, but don’t call between 2-4. It is a holy time. And so very pleasurable.
