Necklace I created for my upcoming birthday.  The image is from one of my favorite paintings that sold quite a few years ago now.  The pendant is also available from my website, or, if you would like a beaded one similar to this, email me.

L’Shana Tovah Happy New Year Miss Eileen’s Etsy Picks 9.23.11

L’Shana Tovah Happy New Year Miss Eileen’s Etsy Picks 9.23.11: Morning all! Welcome to Miss Eileen’s Etsy Picks for September 23, 2011. Next week starts the Jewish New Year and the beginning of the High Holy Days starting with Rosh Hashanah. Please join me in welcoming in the new year.
Traditionally we welcome in the new year by blowing the shofar, or ram’s horn, eat apples and honey for a sweet start to the new year, pray at a body of water, and pray some more. My family would get together at Grandma’s. She would serve chicken soup, followed by a salad, then roast chicken. She always served in courses with lots of bread on the table. She said it filled people up that way and stretched out the food. For some of us, especially my sister, the bread was the best part. She would serve Challah, bread made with so many eggs it was yellow, and then braided before going into the oven. For Rosh Hashanah, the challah would be round, and sometimes there would be raisins in it to make it that much sweeter.
