The Latest Bar Mitzvah Fad?

I was so delighted to contribute to this article in the Forward. The image above is of my niece Ruby in my bat mitzvah dress - with my mother and me standing behind her! I am so proud of her - she did an amazing job and had an awesome green bat mitzvah.

Here are some of the other green elements that were included in the event:
