Wishing You a Sweet New Year
L’Shana Tova!
To observe Rosh Hashanah, traditional foods sweetened with honey, apples and carrots are served. They symbolize sweetness, blessings, abundance and the hope for a sweet year ahead. Fish is a part of the Rosh Hashanah meal, for it is an ancient symbol of fertility and prosperity and also represents knowledge since its eyes are always open. This is the time to reflect on our lives, values and relationships. The festive symbolic meal is an integral component of the Rosh Hashanah celebration.

L’Shana Tovah! I had to copy the1st commenter as I never really knew what the salutation would be on this holy occasion.
I hope all the family and friends that you wished to be in attendance arrived, health and happiness in the coming year.
I’m definitely not a Jew, but I’m wishing you a happy new year anyways!;)
Also, maybe I’m crazy, but that dollop of butter in the picture of the carrots almost looks like a heart.
Those carrots! Love them. Happy new year.
