#90

Today is Yom Kippur. I kind of wish I was Jewish so I could celebrate it. I saw families dressed up heading to temple today all around the neighborhood. They fasted all day before having a HUGE meal at sundown. I wanted to crash one of the dinners to feast on kugel, lox, israeli couscous with mushrooms and onions, brisket, latkes, knishes, blintzs, and lots of challah. Yummmm. But I think the major reason I was crushing on Yom Kippur was the family togetherness I saw. Whole families were together in the streets. Some lady was having 40! of her family members over for dinner. I realized I missed mine and it made me very excited for Thanksgiving and then Christmas!

But alas there is one thing that made me hate on Yom Kippur. Dozen has changed to their fall menu. Umm its hard to believe that its even better than their summer one but it looks that way. I mean caramel apple, orange chocolate, worms & dirt, cherry coke, peppermint, s'mores, pumpkin maple, yummmmmmmmmmm. I saw that today's offerings included caramel apple and orange chocolate. So after some encouragement from Toi, Buddy and I headed for some cupcakes only to find out that Dozen had closed early. I'm guessing for the holiday or they had just sold out early because of the holiday but it totally bummed me out. Oh well, I guess their is always tomorrow and the chance to get a peppermint one.
