Gastronomic torture

The festival of Rosh Hashana in its current form must be the idea of a Jewish mother who, not content with force feeding her family enough to feed a battalion, sees the 2 day chag as a perfect opportunity to do it 4 times over.

These last two days I have eaten until almost ready to explode - just when you think that it's over, another meal comes along.

Prayer, eating and sleep. Thank goodness the day after is a fast day - I dont' remember exactly Gedalia's role, but if he had to be murdered then this was a pretty good day to choose.
