Beginnings #BlogElul 19


Yesterday we had a faculty meeting for the religious school faculty. One of my teachers prepared this treat to celebrate the beginning of our school year and of our Jewish new year.

Inside each of the "pieces" of the round challah was a foil wrapped blessing for the new year. The faculty had written these blessings - but without knowing the goal. This is a family tradition for this teacher - a blend of Sefardic and Ashkenazic ritual. The challah was delicious! And yes, the honey pot is an apple.

The blessing that I received, was ironically one that I had written - May you be happy with all that you have!
