This thread reminds me of an old joke: A brief synopsis of all Jewish holidays: they tried to kill us, we won, lets eat.
It seems that we Jew are always concerned with what is on the menu and the more the table groans, the better we feel. A true story – many years ago while driving by a Salvation Army church, I happened to notice their sign said “Jesus is coming, are you ready?”. Emes – the first thing that went through my mind was “what would I serve?”
On a more serious note, I would like to wish you all a happy and healthy Sukkot complete with warm weather and a wasp free environment. Enjoy your families and friends and remember that you can diet next week.
