adding that she went out 
recently to buy a card table 
to add on for more space. 
 “This is a passion for 
me; it’s a labor of love,” she 
says, adding she grew up 
in a shomer Shabbos home 
with a vibrant Shabbat 
table, joined regularly by 
her parents’ friends. 
“I expect to have a lively 
table,” she says, adding that 
she tries to incorporate 
something religious and 
spiritual as well. 
She seeks to bring energy 
and excitement to the 
Shabbat table, she says, 
and is always glad when 
guests feel welcome to stick 
around after the meal to 
chat and play games. 
 “I‘d say inclusivity and 
togetherness is really what 
Shabbos represents, and 

having Shabbos candles 
you can see from the table I 
think is really important.”
Wolfson has an open-
door policy and loves 
when people knock on the 
door, meaning she always 
keeps an extra seat and 
place setting at the ready, 
so an arriving guest feels 
like they were already 
expected, she says. Guests 
are welcome to pop in 
for board games Saturday 
during the day, too, she 
says. 
“If you let it be known or 
make them feel like they’re 
expected, there’s a better 
chance they’ll be willing to 
come again and not think 
twice, and I think that’s 
really important, to make 
people feel welcome and at 
home.”
