So adorable. This "Happy Birthday, Hanzo" reminds me of the 'lift-the-flap' books I used to love reading to my children and grandchildren. Thanks for the memory jog. I hope your 2025 is off to a good start.
Happy birthday Hanzo, happy New Year Etgar and many thanks for Alphabet Soup and all you offer us through it. I love getting your posts each week. Wishing everyone peace and a more sane world in 2025 - somehow!
Nu?? So when does the birthday boy become Chief Rabbit? And will he be Ashkenazi, Sephardi, Charedi or Reformi? We are agog, Etgar. Please relieve us of the burden of ignorance and BTW, happy 2025., :)
Somebunny to love and love us in return. The best we can hope for. Thank you, Etgar, for provoking thought all year long. Now... did somebody say something about carrot cake...?
I've often wondered how non-kosher animals feel about their place in Israeli society. It'd be insulting on one level, but enormously reassuring on another.

you look like a little baby rabbit
with green eyes and soft skin
you taste like salt and chicory
wild leeks that I carried home
you smell of soap and metall
left out in the sun
my parents’ yard
there‘s a tenderness to you
and harshness
that makes me cry
you make me cry little rabbit
you little bunny
hot piping tears come out of me after I hear your words
what can I do there, little bunny
you make me cry with hot tears
after I hear you hurtful words
that make me want to bite
into your stomach
and chew you
and crawl inside your skin
and hold you
and get hold of you and grope you
and eat you up
and crawl inside your skin and grab you from the inside
and get a taste of your warm flesh
and be ingested by you my little rabbit
my sweet sweet bunny
my little baby
i am ready to give birth to you
many times again
and pull you out
out of my thirsting aching body

Best wishes Hanzo and a very happy New Year to you and your loved ones!
It is refreshing and comforting that you are so smitten with Hanzo! Shanah (secular) Tovah!
Happy Hanzokah to you too! I lived with two rabbits for 2 years. They can die of fright too.
I know , but during the missile alarms he is surprisingly brave

Happy birthday Hanzol and happy new year to all
