The High Holidays are here!

Somehow, they always feel like they sneak up on me. It's like, I know they're coming. I do all the things to prepare, but then still they surprise me when they actually arrive! But here we are! Let's begin! Shanah Tovah, friends!

Rabbi's Message About Sunday's Rosh HaShanah Foods Workshop

Are you ready for the seder? No?
Did you know there is a tradition of a seder on Rosh HaShanah?

If, like most members of Kehillath Shalom, you are of Ashkenazic descent, you may be familiar with adding a blessing over apples dipped in honey on Rosh HaShanah so that we might have a sweet year. Jews with roots in Spain have a tradition that expands this practice to many foods that symbolize many blessings. These are called simanim, or omens. And they are eaten in an order (seder) on Rosh HaShanah evening.

Beyond food, tradition (superstition?) suggests that what we do on Rosh HaShanah will have an impact on the year. For example, there's a tradition not to nap on the holiday so that we do not sleep the year away. Perhaps you might like to think about what you would like more of in the coming year and do it (even symbolically) on Rosh HaShanah. We talk a lot about reflection and changes we might make at this time of year: let's get to it! Go for that walk in the woods, call that person you've been meaning to reconnect with, take a bit of time with your friend/spouse/parent/kid, write your elected representative. Make your wishes reality.

And if you want to know more about food omens, come to Sunday's culinary workshop!
