And if you've never tried it do slice up an apple as the sun sets this evening, dip it in some honey and you'll wonder why you don't eat it every day of the year. It's delicious. Enjoy!

Apple and Honey
It's that time of year again. Sunset tonight will be the start of the Jewish New Year. I mentioned in previous years' posts that apple and honey is a traditional food for this time of year as it represents the hope for a sweet and fruitful year ahead. I'm going to add a wish for a healthy as well as sweet and fruitful year for my family, friends and all the lovely people who visit this blog.
And if you've never tried it do slice up an apple as the sun sets this evening, dip it in some honey and you'll wonder why you don't eat it every day of the year. It's delicious. Enjoy!

Happy New Year, Ros! L'Shana Tovah! May we meet next year....
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, dear Ros, and may it be a fruitful and healthy year for you and yours. Thank you so much for your kind words.
ReplyDeleteShanah Tovah to you and yours. I'm all honied out having used it in cakes and my first ever challahs. I'll certainly be dipping my apple in honey; nothing like it!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a blessed Rosh Hashanah!
ReplyDeleteWe love apples and honey in our house.
Happy New Year Ros! I can't believe it's two years ago you first introduced me to this custom,,,,,I think it was at Josephine's house....?
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing what those foods represent together. How nice. I have never tried apples and honey, but as I have both in the house, I may well. Happy New Year to you, Rosalind.
ReplyDeleteHalf an apple is often my snack as I set off on my morning walk. Honey? Love it but the doc says no as I'm diabetic. I rarely have added sweetness on anything, but I met a lady of 93 once who attributed her longevity to honey - she ate about a jar a week!
ReplyDeleteAll the best to you for Jewish New Year. Can't go wrong with apple and honey.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely trying this tonight. Thanks!

Yesterday evening came and went before I saw this. Hope I'm not too late - it's such a lovely idea. (Or have I got to wait a whole year?)
ReplyDeleteHappy new year, Ros, to you and all your family.
ReplyDeleteHappy new year Ros.I hope the year is very sweet for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Rosalind. Sweet and sour.....just like life. Hope the next 12 months are fruitful for you.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I missed this. Wishing you health and happiness and I'll certainly be trying out sliced apple with honey : )
ReplyDeleteI've been Internet-less on holiday so I missed this post. I hope the coming year brings you health and happiness.
ReplyDeleteI missed this, too. I was too busy eating apple and honey, baking and eating honey cake and entertaining. Happy New Year! ~Miriam
ReplyDeleteHappy Rosh Hashana! I love honey, I'm convinced it keeps you young...Usually, I'll spread it on toasted bread, but I'm up for trying it on apples too!
ReplyDeleteI hope that the new year brings everything you wish for yourself and your family.
Happy Jewish New Year. Sorry I'm so late. It's my gathering time. Sounds great to me. I love honey and anything. Honey and just a spoon, right out of the jar. Haha
ReplyDeleteI agree that apples and honey are delicious! Wishing you, and your family a very happy and healthy New Year Rosalind!
