Marsha Blovotnick is schvitzing. Her sister just invited herself over for Shabbat dinner (oy!) and she’s woefully unprepared! She’s in such a tizzy that her thoughts, emotions, and daily activities are all jumbled up. Simply put, she’s puzzled. Will you help Marsha figure out what she needs and where in Philly she can find it? She’s a busy woman, so come back each day to help Marsha unravel another piece of the puzzle.
Everything Marsha needs can be found in her favorite neighborhoods: Manayunk, East Passyunk Crossing, and Rittenhouse. But although you must identify a real location each day (use Google Maps), neither you nor Marsha will find anything tangible there. What Marsha needs is more like… wisdom. Solve any three daily puzzles to add my latest prize card to your collection! The only time you might need to schlep somewhere is if you figure out everything Marsha’s searching for…
