Revisiting Sukkot

Sukkot is over, but I couldn't resist sharing one more Sukkot story. After lunch, the Scientist class headed outside to check out the sukkah. "What are these?" they asked, noticing the boxes of fragrant branches stacked inside. We opened one and found fresh greenery. We noticed that there was no tape, no glue, no string. How would we get the branches to stay on the walls of the sukkah. Jonathan quickly discovered an efficient sukkah decorating technique: find a hole, push the end of a branch through one hole, and then weave it through another. We had soon completed the mitzvah of beautifying the sukkah and at the same time created a sweet smelling sukkah for others to enjoy.
