Shabbat with the kids

Sarah and I bought this traveling Shabbat tea candle holder in what is left of the old Jewish neighborhood in Paris. It is in the shape of a pomegranate, which is an ancient fruit and Jewish symbol. It got some use on a sailboat or RV trip or two, but has been stored and mostly unused since we found it many years ago in that far off place. We imagined using it for future travel adventures throughout the world. While that didn’t happen as hoped, I wound up needing it for home use last night instead. Perhaps this little Shabbat candle set will yet find itself on more and distant adventures. The future is unwritten.
