The brisket is cooked.  The challahs are baked (and impressively tall this year!).

The table is set, and I think the honey cake is going to a be an especially good one this year.

    and a L’Shanah Tovah Tikatevu to you! (I had to google it so I hope I’ve got it right?)
    Your table and baking look lovely – just as much attention to detail as your wonderful creations:)
    Maybe you can share with us your honey cake recipe (if that’s not disrespectful to ask)

    Everything looks so lovely!
    If you start typing up any recipes, I would also love to hear how you make the brisket. 😉

    Did you sew or buy your challah cover? It’s beautiful. And so are those challah loaves!
