L'Shana Tova!

It is Rosh Hashanah, the "Head of the Year," and we are propelled into the year 5778.

One immediately starts to think of celebratory dishes--honey cake, cherry blintzes, potato-mushroom knishes, apple kugel, a fine smoked brisket, challah, tongue and chopped liver, pomegranates and dates, and gallons of Manischewitz wine.

Some of us remember fondly the Hadassah Bazaar, once held annually in Vancouver and other cities across North America. In Toronto, as many as 60,000 people would line up at 6:00 a.m. to get in.

It is ten years now, since the last bazaar was held, but we can still taste the honey cake. Mazel tov!
