Susan's Book: Casting Lots?

Tupperware

Yep. I talked about Tupperware. I referenced a dish I bought from my local tupperware lady. I fill it to the brim with veggies and leave it in the fridge (or on the counter). Easy access to healthy food.

You can use it for food storage or bust this little dream out at parties.

It's legit, and purchased from a for reals Tupperware lady. Meet Lindsey MacMurray -- she can hook you up! ?

You can get this dish HERE (just search for "Serving Center Set")

She also recommends the Snack-Stor Large Container

Note: NOT SPONSORED, I just do freaking love that dish.

Enjoy!

Graphic Worthy Quotes

Because we say very deep, very entertaining, very quotable things on this podcast:

“The family that gets arrested together stays together”

“Judaism for me is the way I orient my life. It’s how I understand my relationship with God. It’s the values and the rituals and life cycle events in Jewish form that orient me in the world. I don’t feel like they’re absolute truth. I feel like they are one path to God and a meaningful life shared by lots of people in the world so we can have this joint potential to heal the world.” – Susan Silverman

“I have decided that I’ll be the first to hug my kids and the last to let go.” – Rachael Herrscher

“If we really cared about this as a world we could do something—we have the technology.” – Susan Silverman

Susan Silverman Bio

Susan Silverman is a rabbi, author, teacher, activist and founder of Second Nurture: Every Child Deserves a Family -- And a Community, a program to find permanent, loving families for all children -- with the added bonus of supportive communal contexts for their families. She is a founder of Miklat Israel, an NGO that assists the State of Israel in creating a sustainable solution for asylum seekers residing in the country and on the board of Women of the Wall.

I have always wanted to be a mom -- and have always wanted that to include adoption. I think I have seen families as something beyond a crucial, loving entity, but a force for social transformation.
