Being the hippie Left Coast Jews we’ve evolved into as adults, we have our own ways to celebrate the High Holidays. Here’s our checklist for tonight’s Rosh Hashanah proceedings:
1. Two round challahs made at three o’clock in the morning because we were too buzzed to sleep; one for eating, one for taschlit (casting away our guilt for the year with bread crumbs…yes, we need a whole loaf, and so do you, probably.)
2. Phone call to the ‘rents explaining that even though we wouldn’t be attending services this evening, we wouldn’t be going clubbing, either.
3. Gave tzedakeh in the form of a twenty to our favorite homeless guy in the Haight.
4. Phone call to our bubbe in Scottsdale, who cut us short because she didn’t want to miss the brisket being served in the nursing home dining hall.
5. Prayed for peace, tolerance and love for the entire planet. What we lack in formal yeshiva training we make up for in heart.
