L’Shanah Tova (Happy New Year)

September 14, 2015

apples and honey

Today is Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. We’re dipping apples in honey for a sweet new year, eating round challah, and reflecting on the year that’s gone by and the year that’s now beginning.

L’Shanah Tovah.

    A happy and healthy new year to you too! As my dear friend’s mom always said, good health first and foremost…the rest you can buy at Walmart!

    I have been meaning to thank you for all the wonderful information and tips in your podcasts. Much of my conversation at our Rosh Hasannah dinner last night was about what I learned by listening to your conversations! Thank you!!
