I cannot wait to read this.

Ok how can I get that doorknob hanger.

For two years I didn't have a belly button

I believe we call that "a torrent, somewhere"

I really appreciate it! Let me think on it, I might have a different idea from a commission standpoint.

As an aside, I have one of your pastel Jupiters and I adore it.

Also I'm notoriously indecisive and at this point I'm genuinely unsure why I keep adding messages to this thread?

I do really appreciate the offer though! And I'm totally open to the idea of a commission in general, I'm just not sure if I'd want to pair them with these specifically, if that makes sense?

I'm a little babbly, sorry

So the backstory here is that I have two kids, and one's favorite animal is foxes and the other's favorite is racoons so whenever I see fox jewelry I also look for raccoons because I want to have them both. So I think I'd want the pieces to look similar-ish if that makes sense?

Awesome.

Last question, not a deal breaker but: do you also have raccoons.

Does the earring on the right just look different from the left because of glare or is the design eroded?

These are earring studs right? I made that mistake once before.

Thank you!!! I love a good dangly earring. Just not so much with the poking into my head when I'm wearing a hat.

Oh cool! I...have honestly never considered that I could bend the wire myself.

Still an earrings noob. 😁

Ok great, then French hooks are fine! I just have to figure out how to wear them so the wires go down instead of straight back...

Butterfly earring

Blue leaf earring

Thank you! Now this might be my ignorance of earring wearing, but are these also considered French hooks?

I only happen to have a copy because I was in Israel in yeshiva when my rebbe did a shiur on it so I picked it up in Jerusalem somewhere.

Oooh can I recommend a book? It's called הסתרים באסתר and it essentially synthesizes all the midrashim into like a cohesive narrative with some additional commentary.

I don't know how easy it is to find online though and I don't think it's in English. But if you can get it, it's worth it.

YES!

Oh, Kate Rockwell from Mean Girls!

YES! I saw Beetlejuice 1.0 before the pandemic really started and it was Sophia Anne Caruso, but after watching all the clips of Elizabeth in v2.0 I like her energy so much more.

Also Elizabeth Teeter rocks in everything

Ok but what are you waiting for? Welcome to the candy store!

Beats me. I'm Ashkenazi.

A screenshot of Sefaria

Huh. Sefaria for me shows it correctly then.

Oh I *always* forget about Parah. Zachor, Shekalim, Shira, HaGadol, sure. Friggin Parah.

Wait what special haftorah should it be?

But that is the right haftorah for Ki Tisa?

Which one is it giving you

Today? It's not open until April!

Come back to NYC for Schmigadoon, I'll go with you
