We started making a sukkah when my older daughter (now married with an 8 month old delicious little boy) started going to kindergarten in Hebrew school. In Montreal, October can sometimes be brutal...but my fondest memories are of 10 of us (that's as big as the balcony we built our sukkah on would allow) dressed in coats and with a space heater to help us through. My daughter still makes a sukkah every year and Friday night we had Split Pea Soup with Dumplings, Roasted tongue that melted in the mouth, potato knishes and salad with apple crisp for dessert. Enjoy the rest of the holiday. I love Sukkot. We started making a sukkah when my older daughter (now married with an 8 month old delicious little boy) started going to kindergarten in Hebrew school.

I lived in Israel for 10 years too and I didn't even celebrate sukkot. It's nice to see that you remembered. Keren http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/franticfoodie/

Hi, tell your brother about the my blog in Seattle PI, you said he is moving to Seattle right.
I lived in Israel for 10 years too and I didn’t even celebrate sukkot. It’s nice to see that you remembered.

Some of my fondest memories are from this holiday. We would play in the Sukkah for days with our parents occasionally checking in on us and bringing us food.

I've never eaten an etrog, but I can tell you that my dad is trying to grow an etrog tree! He planted the seeds a few years ago and the plants are getting pretty big. I'll let you know when they're ready for harvest.... in another 10 years! :) My parent’s sukkah was always bright blue too!
