Description

In this week’s episode we study a text from the Shulchan Aruch about ways to bring joy for a holiday, which includes meat and wine, toasted nuts and grains, and new clothes. We talk about the joy of getting new things, and how, often in our modern society, we buy so many new things that the joy diminishes. Some ideas we discuss are saving the joy of something special and new to coincide with a special event or a holiday and buying used clothes which can contain the extra joy of wearing something historical, unique, and the story of its previous wearer.
