How has this gem of a book eluded me until now? It was released in 2002 and I ogled over it for so long at a friend’s house last week that she let me take it home. Sisters Jennifer and Victoria Traig, who created the fabulousness that is Judaikitsch: Tchotchkes, Schmattes & Nosherei, are brilliant, funny balabustas.
I know Jennifer’s name from her more recent book, Devil in the Details, about her obsessive-compulsive tendencies, which explains the painstaking glue job on the “Neil Sedaka Box”.
What would happen if Martha Stewart were abducted by a tribe of trailer park rabbis? Judaikitsch! Filled to the brim with crafts, collectibles, and creative cooking, heres the ultimate guide to a funky, festive Jewish lifestyle.
Or, as I like to call it, next year’s kindergarten Shalom School curriculum.
Hi. I love your blog. More, it was nice to meet you at the UnConference. I know, I know, it’s a late note. But, I am behind these days. Your blog is fabulous. Kudos!
you’re right, it would make a fun kindergarten curriculum…a little off-the-wall but for sure it would be fun!
