Friday Favorites | Cooking in Style

It’s the Friday before Rosh Hashanah so we are gushing about something that was made in Israel that you can sport while you enjoy cooking adventures in the kitchen for the holidays.

Once again, our friends at ModernTribe have a practical item that’s fashionable and meaningful! Do you want to make sure you keep your temple clothes kugel-free? Want to avoid a clothes-altering explosion of powdered sugar from the honey cake you baked? Do you want to make it look like you were rockin’ it in the kitchen while you sneak in the catered platter for your holiday guests? Protect your outfit and look adorable! We are totally gushing over the Modern Pomegranate Apron designed by Barbara Shaw and made in Israel.

During this International Week at The Wedding Yentas, we wanted to make sure we tip our hats to some of the most exotic places to be married by honoring them with Real Weddings and a Friday Favorites installment. We’ve taken virtual trips to Mexico and South Africa and today we are visiting Israel by obsessing over the apron.

Why pomegranates? Pomegranates are a symbol of fertility and abundance, so it’s only fitting that you should wear it with pride during this season of new year, atonement, and harvest. Thankfully, ModernTribe brings Judaica and Jewish gifts to the new generation of Jews that will help them express and develop their Jewish identity, and this apron is another example of how ModernTribe successfully equips its customers with the best Jewish merchandise available.

And it could be yours! Get cookin’ and look cool while doing it. Just enter to win for your chance to have your own apron.
