The hardest part of Rosh Hashanah in the modern age in California seems to be finding a round challah. The local grocery stores don’t seem to stock this except for Ralphs in La Jolla that has its own “Kosher Experience” all year round. The best round challah is found at Trader Joe’s but you have to get there early before they sell out.
There’s a video about how to make a round challah.
Our Torah Observant Christian congregation is having a Yom Teruah/Rosh Hoshanna service tonight. This’ll be my first one. Shofars and everything. The congregation is having a kosher celebration dinner (provided) and we are providing dessert.
Well, happy 5781.
