Shana Tova - Happy New Year


For those who are wondering, my sources tell me it is now 5771. Boy, how time flies!

And for those who are further wondering -- Rosh Hashanah meals usually include apples and honey, to symbolize a sweet new year. The star of David you recognize, and the shofar, the ram's horn that is blown for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. More on Yom Kippur anon (id est, on September 17-18.)

For the Catholics out there, happy feast of the Birth of Mary.
