Following a warning, frogs were the 2nd of 10 Divine plagues set upon Egypt by G*d when Pharaoh refused to free the Hebrews from slavery. - Pesach Haggadah

G*d said that “through this you will know that I am G*d."

Abandoned Shmura Matzoh on Passover Seder Plate

Square hand-hammered copper Seder plate was gift from my father.

Seder is the ritual service and dinner for Passover holiday's first or first two nights commemorating the Exodus of Israelites from Egypt. My Grandma gave me a Seder plate when I was married, and my in-laws also gave me one. When I was a child I made copper hammering art.

Menorah / Chanukiah for Chanukah

I feel especially good seeing the Menorah lit in my neighborhood large mall because in 1981 I went to the Mall management and told them that I wanted a large Menorah at the mall. There were many red and green decorations for other faiths for buyers to appreciate but nothing for the Jewish faith and Chanukah was at the same season.

Through Rabbi Joshua Gordon, obm, Director of Valley Chabads, I arranged for Chabad to build the large menorah for greater community to enjoy. Rabbis come and light each night. Choirs come and sing.

A menorah still stands and that is good. Amayn.

By 1980 I also arranged for the local Veteran's Administration Medical Center to build a large menorah, the first time the VA ever had a menorah on their grounds, the then Chaplain, Rabbi Joseph Elsant, obm, wrote to me.

Anagama pot

by © Joy Krauthammer

During my ceramic graduate work at Brooklyn Museum School of Art, I studied with Japanese potter Toshiko Takaezu. A decade later I created with Japanese Anagama and Raku firings and immersed my soul in Wabi-Sabi. I was reborn to unlearn, and learn new ceramics. Unglazed greenware pots pick up patinas and glaze from woodash and rice hulls during 3 days in the hand-stoked Anagama kiln, fueled by trees we chopped. My Wabi Sabi story is in Week 34, August 22, 2015.

"Characteristics of the Wabi-Sabi beauty aesthetic include imperfection, asymmetry, asperity (roughness or irregularity), simplicity, austerity, modesty, humility, harmony, intimacy, and integrity of natural objects and processes.” Wikipedia

Driving Miss Daisy

DRIVING MISS DAISY, a comedy-drama about prejudice and 25 years friendship that crosses faith and color lines. Pulitzer Prize winning 1987 play by Alfred Uhry adapted for Academy award-winning movie, 1989, in English and Hebrew.

A favorite because I had interviewed playwright for a magazine article.
The Atlanta, Georgia character in real life is buried near my beloved Grandma, z’l.
