(Happy new year)
The new year always gets me filled with emotions and infuses me with high hopes for the coming year, that me and my loved ones will prosper, realize our dreams, love, rejoice, bloom and that goodness shall be all around.
The week before Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish new year) brings about a special festivity which is characterized by the ritual search for the best holiday recipe, finding the perfect gift for the hosts and of course the existential question "Where will you spend the holidays?"
An important part of the ritual, reserved for this special week, is to find an evening dress for the holiday meal… It is well known that the new year cannot begin without an oil stain or a wine stain on the new dress ;- )
