#tekheles is a noun

[dovymcjewpunk]

I was buying flowers to put by the bimah for Shavues, and the cashier pulls a pile of white and blue embroidery floss out of her pocket and asks my husband and I if we have these too. It took me a second to realise it was a messianic showing me their "tzitzis". I couldn't help myself. The words "yes, but the real ones" fell out of my face.
