housewarming gift for a

Question 19.16: What would be a good housewarming gift for a Jewish friend? Single Page Top Document: soc.culture.jewish FAQ: Miscellaneous and References (11/12) Previous Document: Question 19.15: I'm a health care provider? What do I need to know for Jewish patients? Next Document: Question 19.17: What is the meaning and origin of the phrase B'shaah Tova? [ Usenet FAQs | Search | Web FAQs | Documents | RFC Index ] Question 19.16: What would be a good housewarming gift for a Jewish friend? Answer: The nicest housewarning gift would be a mezuzah, which Jews affix to the doorpost. If you don't have a Judaica store near you, you can order one through www.judaica.com. Take a look at [5] http://www.judaism.com/mezuzah/ You'll also need to get a mezuzah parchment, which they have available. If that option doesn't work, consider a good Jewish book, or a gift certificate for a Judaica store. Both would allow the family to start a good Jewish library. Lastly, if neither of those pan out, consider something nice for the house. If the family keeps Kosher, avoid getting items used for food, as you don't know if they could be made Kosher. However, other items, such as picture frames, plants, etc. are lovely. Of course, the best gift is your good wishes and the knowledge that you are a friend. The handmade stuff is nice as well: knowing they'll be tired, offer to take them to dinner at a restaurant of their choice :-) Top Document: soc.culture.jewish FAQ: Miscellaneous and References (11/12) Previous Document: Question 19.15: I'm a health care provider?
