Like Manischewitz with a twist, this saucy book will show the young Chosen Ones how to mix their Jewish roots with their happenin’ lifestyles. Bursting with playful anecdotes and amusing advice, Life, Love, Lox is the essential companion for any Jew looking to squeeze a little style out of the ol’ Torah. Ten chapters in all—like “Challapalooza,” “How to Lose a Guy in Ten Plagues,” and “Lox, Stock, and Bagel”—dish on how to put together Shabbat dinner for the real world, how to meet the (observant) parents, and how to embrace the high holy days with style. Covering everything from Kosher Kissing and making matzah balls to Speed-Dating and the Dayenu Diet, Life, Love, Lox is the best thing to happen to modern Jews since the Glatt Kosher hot dog cart at Yankee Stadium. This is a humorous girlfriend’s guide to living the hip life while keeping it Jewish.

Carin Davis, an award-winning singles columnist and feature writer for The Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles, was first introduced to the plight of the single Jewish girl at age nine, when no one asked her to the B’nai Tikvah Purim Carnival. Brian asked Andrea, Evan asked Rachel, and poor Carin spent the night alone, trying to win a goldfish in a plastic bag. Over the years, she sharpened her social skills slow dancing at Bar Mitzvahs and flirting at AE Phi formals. In 2001, she began sharing her Of Mice and Mensch dating adventures with Jewish Journal readers. In addition to her work in The Journal, Carin’s feature and sports articles have appeared in Jewish newspapers across the country. Carin graduated Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude from UCLA, with a BA in Communication Studies. Before sundown, she works as the Vice-President of an animation company. In her free time, she hosts Iron Chef: Matzah parties, Torah and Tonic Shabbats, and volunteers with The Jewish Federation. From: http://www.lifelovelox.com/html/bio.html
