🥖✨Wheat, fruit, and a little bit of magic… Shavuot begins tonight!! 🌾🍇🌙 Not just a day of cheesecake and flowers (though I’m not mad about that), Shavuot is one of the most ancient and meaningful celebrations on the Jewish calendar. It marks the moment we honor the wheat harvest in the Holy Land and the seasonal shift when the earth gives generously: think olives, figs, grapes, pomegranates, and dates. Symbolic, earthy, and absolutely beautiful. Traditionally, Shavuot also celebrates the receiving of sacred wisdom (yes, that famous moment at Sinai), but it’s just as much a celebration of first fruits, both literal and spiritual. It’s a reminder to pause, reflect, and ask: what are we harvesting in our own lives right now? ✨If you don’t have anything planned, don’t worry, there are still so many lovely ways to bring the spirit of Shavuot into your space. A simple spread of seasonal fruits, roasted veggies, fresh herbs, rustic breads, anything grain-based or nourishing. Basically, any food that feels grounded, earthy, and made with love. Light a candle, eat something meaningful, and take a moment to feel connected to the season. Wishing you a meaningful, nourishing, and mystical Shavuot. May your harvest, inside and out, be sweet 🌾💫

Chag Sameach to everyone celebrating Passover which started this past weekend.

This page comes from our beautiful facsimile of British Library Manuscript Add. MS. 27210. This manuscript, c. 1320, is known as “The Golden Haggadah” due to its extensive and sumptuous illumination.

This page, fol. 15r, portrays Miriam (Moses’ sister), holding a timbrel in the upper right, while the other illustrations portray the preparations for the Passover festival typical of northern Spain in the 14th century: the master of the house distributing matzoh and sweets to the children, the family cleaning thoroughly and making sure there is no leavened bread in the house, and sheep being slaughtered for the Passover feast.

🕎 Happy Hanukkah! 2025 🕎

As winter settles in and the nights grow longer, Hanukkah arrives as a quiet but powerful reminder that light still wins. The Festival of Lights is not about spectacle or excess; it’s about remembrance, resilience, and faith carried forward one flame at a time.

Hanukkah tells an ancient story of perseverance. A small people, a threatened faith, and a miracle that came not through abundance, but through faithfulness. One day’s worth of oil burned for eight. That alone should stop us in our tracks. In a world obsessed with having more, Hanukkah teaches us the power of standing firm with what is right.

Each night, as the menorah is lit, we’re reminded that light does not need permission to shine. It doesn’t argue with darkness it simply exists, and darkness retreats. Every candle represents hope, endurance, and the quiet strength of tradition passed down through generations.

This season is also about family and community. Gathering together, sharing meals, laughter, and stories these are the things that anchor us when the world feels unstable. Hanukkah doesn’t rush. It asks us to slow down, to be present, to remember who we are and where we come from.

May the glow of the menorah warm your home and steady your heart. May it remind you that miracles still happen, that faith still matters, and that even the smallest light can change everything.

Wishing you joy, peace, and steadfast hope throughout Hanukkah and into the year ahead.

Chag Sameach.

All I want for Hanukkah is Palestinian liberation, just like Shatzi. May her memory be a revolution, and may we carry forth her torch. #Repost @jvpny Shatzi Weisberger Z”L, affectionately dubbed the People’s Bubbie, taught us about what it means to spend all of our days — and not just when it's convenient — fighting like hell for a just and livable future for every single person, from our neighborhoods to Palestine.  In her loving memory, we are proud to invite you to a joyous, online Hanukkah celebration to benefit the Palestinian organizing of @adalahjusticeproject. Join us for a night of comedy, burlesque and political inspiration, as well as stories about the People’s Bubbie and lessons we’re learning about building multi-generational political communities. This Hanukkah, we are raising $40,000 for Shatzi's favorite US-based Palestinian partner organization, @adalahjusticeproject, which plays a critical role translating what’s happening on the ground to US audiences, building bridges with Black, indigenous, Jewish and other communities, and galvanizing people towards action. In spite of having few resources, Shatzi was a monthly donor for years. The organization is led by an incredible team who Shatzi loved and trusted, and who we are deeply honored to organize alongside. Israel just elected its most fascist government in history — when 2022 was already on track to be the deadliest year for Palestinians in recent memory. In the face of an unthinkable level of cruelty — carried out with US tax dollars, in the name of so-called “Jewish safety" — what is our responsibility?  You can RSVP for the celebration and donate at the link in our bio. We can't wait to see everyone there. Bring your grief, gratitude, pride, joy, and love — for Shatzi, for our movement ancestors, for political community, for liberation. #shatziweisberger #jewsforpalestine #judaism #hanukkah #chanukah #chagsameach #peoplesbubbie #freepalestine #jewish #tikkunolam #palestine #palestinewillbefree #jewsagainstzionism #jewsagainstapartheid https://www.instagram.com/p/CmVIP1NsW3_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
