Mayor Shops For Rosh Hashanah

2004_09_roshshopping.jpg

Mayor Bloomberg was getting his Rosh Hashanah shop on the other day along Avenue J in Brooklyn. Rosh Hashanah, aka the Jewish New Year and one of the holiest days of the Jewish calendar, starts on September 15. There are a lot of workshops and events at the Jewish Community Center for the holiday. And we know it's the wrong holiday, but check out this NYC menorah. We'll await the Bloomberg family Rosh Hashanah recipes at the NYC.gov site and keep you posted.

Mayor Bloomberg shopping during tax free week last year and hyping another shop & save promotion. If there's one thing the Mayor wants, it's for you to spend your money at in the city.

I sure hope hizzoner stopped by Avenue J's finest establishment, Di Fara Pizza!

As if NYY.goy is a site. Next time, try clicking the link it's faster... Ha!

I think whenever there's a story about Easter or any of them Gentile holidays, Gothamist should include a picture of a Christmas tree and a baby jesus. and Mel Gibson. menorah wtf

In Putney, there are amazing apples... and Vermont is famous for its beekeepers... so, for Rosh Hashanah, you don't have to shop in Putney -- the most important ingredients are growing right on the trees, and collecting in hives...
But, how do you grow a minyan?
