So, I know that quite a few people know the Jewish joke: “they tried to killed us, we survived, let’s eat”, and a friend found this chart years ago explaining all the Jewish holidays and fast days through that joke, with one very important addition: TREES.
And since today was Tu B’Shvat, I found myself thinking that this would be a great day to share it.
Enjoy :)) and hag sameach!! <333

I think we, as Jews, don't talk enough about the eating cheesecake and staying up late reading holiday. Name a better religious practice than cheesecake, I'll wait

Folk dancing celebration during the feast of Shavuot in a Galilean kibbutz, 1960s
Shavuot is a Jewish holiday that celebrates the giving of the Torah to the Jews at Mount Sinai and is especially known as an early summer harvest festival. In biblical times Shavuot (meaning "weeks"‎ in Hebrew) marked the beginning of the new agricultural season and may have had pagan roots. In Exodus 34:22 is written: "And you shall make for yourself a Festival of Weeks, the first of the wheat harvest, and the festival of the ingathering, at the turn of the year". Another name for Shavuot is Yom HaBikurim (meaning “Day of the First Fruits") which comes from the practice of bringing fruits to the Temple on this holiday to thank God.

Memorial Tablet and Omer calendar by Baruch Zvi Ring (c. 1872-1927). Rochester, New York, United States. 1904. Ink, paint, pencil, and watercolour on cut-out paper.
Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe, who arrived in great numbers in the late 19th century, brought the art of paper-cutting, which they employed for many types of written documents connected with religious ceremony. Baruch Zvi Ring came to Rochester from Vishya, Lithuania, in 1902, two years before he created this work. His earliest known paper-cut had been created in Europe when Ring was only ten years old. It shows the same love of intricate patterns and clarity of composition seen here.
The artist's signature appears in the lozenges attached to the lower roundels: "My handiwork in which I glory (Is. 60:21) From me, Baruch Azi son of Jacob Ring."
