If you missed the Judaism Unbound 24 Hour Digital #Shavuot event, and you missed Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg's pre-Shavuot Zoom Salon, you can still catch the Beit Toratah #shavuos study event! (but it looks like there's a fee to support them.)
But you can also just find a youtube video or something on opensiddur or, hey, pick up a physics book because the torah is infinite and there's nothing not in it!
Thank you to @opensiddur for making available אֲשׁוֹרֵר שִׁירָה/Ashorer Shirah ~ a #piyyut (liturgical #poem) in honor of the #Torah by Ḥakham Raphael Baruch Toledano (1890-1971), #rabbi of Meknes, #Morocco ~ https://opensiddur.org/prayers/lunisolar/pilgrimage/shavuot/ashorer-shirah-a-piyyut-by-raphael-baruch-toledano-ca-20th-c/
Perfect for preparing to welcome #shavuos ~ ~ ~
While preparing for #Shavuot ( #shavuos ) I was pointed to CheesecakeWizard.ai ~ it uses #articifialintelligence to customize free variations of #cheesecake recipes. (I tried it a few times ~ some great innovative recipes, and also a few times that it froze.) https://cheesecakewizard.ai/
Getting ready for #Shavuot ( #shavuos ) by looking for free online study options ~ would appreciate hearing from folks who know of any open, online #TikkunLeilShavuot groups. For folks studying on their own, #Sefaria has good study guides. Here's one I plan to use ~ The #Mystical Evolution of Tikkun Leil Shavuot - From the #Zohar to R' Yosef Karo: https://www.sefaria.org/sheets/411716?lang=bi
"When Haifa Was Party Central at Shavuot"
In the 1920s and 30s, "For a few glorious years, the city of Haifa gave Tel Aviv’s Adloyada Purim parade stiff competition with its Shavuot street celebration, Bikurim..."
