Happy New Year (to the tune of The Christmas Song aka Chestnusts Roasting on an Open Fire)

Luckshies boiling on an open flame,
Jonah stuck inside the whale,
Shofar blasts being blown everywhere,
While sins get cast out from a pail.

Everybody wants the matzah balls and challah,
Herring, gefiltefish and Tums,
Tiny tots with their eyes full of cake,
Think trips to temple are no fun.

They know that next week grownups have to stop eating;
Mom and Dad’s patience just never lasts.
And though they might end up like big old grumps,
Apples and honey will soon smooth out the bumps.

And so I’m offering this simple phrase,
To kids from one to ninety-two,
Although its been said many times, many ways,
L’Shana Tovah Tikatevu to you.

And a cheat sheet for anyone more interested.

    Hey – which one of us is bringing the twelve-pack of mini-vodkas?

    Daniella – Thank you very much. From your keyboard to you know who. Or maybe someone even smarter?
