#R-SUe
SUKKOT is the Fall Harvest festival. In ancient days the Israelites thanked G-d for a good harvest during a weeklong festival. Today, we celebrate by building and eating in temporary booths outside of our homes. We decorate them, often with colorful paper chains, represented by the strands of colorful seed beads. We also shake the Lulav, made up of three kinds of plants: myrtle, willow and palm, and smell the Etrog, a fragrant citrus fruit similar to a lemon.

Shabbat earrings—could you die over the little candlesticks? I’m more into the tribal bone look myself, but I seriously love these from Yontifications.com, a line of Holy Day-inspired jewelry designed by Judaica superstar Susan Fischer Weis.
Really, you need to check out the whole year—the adorable little shofar for Rosh Hashanah had me squealing like someone put baby bunnies in my sock drawer. And Sukkot’s baby lulav and etrog— lady, you’re killing me! The mini-matzohs and teeny hamantashen are so freakin’ precious I want to become a Hebrew school teacher so I could have an appreciative audience for them.”
