Inspired Judaica
A few years ago, when Jennifer Rivlin Roberts of Atlanta was engaged to be married, she registered for Judaica at a local shop, but toiled to select pieces that reflected her taste—clean lines, inspired design and a contemporary feel.



Character Role
Add a little character to the telling of the Exodus story at Seder with one or more delightful Muppet-like puppets from Chai Kids.



Women's Voices
There’s more to the events leading up to the Exodus from Egypt than what we read in the Haggadah.


Celebrating in Israel
Families thinking about hosting a bar or bat mitzvah in Jerusalem have a new online resource: www.bar-mitzvah.org.il.


Sushi for Seder
Cindy Fern Itzkowitz, owner and founder of Shabtai Kosher, has created a version of sushi that doesn’t need to be kept on a bed of ice, topped with shaved ginger or dipped in soy sauce.

Student Aid 
Matzoh alone doesn’t do the job if your child or grandchild can’t be home for Passover.


A Week in Provence 
At the end of a trying work week, do you sometimes dream of escaping to Provence or Tuscany with their azure skies, picturesque architecture and flavorful cuisine?

People are Talking

What’s the harm of a little gossip among friends? Probably not much, but like that proverbial double-edged sword, gossip can easily turn into trouble.


Gender Politics

Dreams of equality from Israel’s early years have given way to a reality in which women face an uphill battle to win political power and influence.



 Raising Daring—and Confident—Girls

The co-author of the bestseller The Daring Book for Girls talks about helping our daughters discover the world and themselves.



Historical Context

If you missed The Jewish Americans, the absorbing three-part documentary series that premiered in January on PBS, you’ll be happy to know that it is now available on DVD for $34.99 at www.shoppbs.org.


Israeli Style

Shorts, T-shirts and leather sandals were de rigueur attire for Israel’s pioneer generation, who worked to dry up the swamps and turn barren land into lush fields.
