Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That He-brew site is pretty funny.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

All of our holidays are "eat and then eat some more" ones, though.

You say this as if it were not one of the major selling points.

I have to quote Cindy: "Will convert for food".

This year, Rosh Hashana (which is a 2-days holiday) is on Thursday and Friday, so it's right next to shabbat. This means that there will be three full days of large meals. People try to prepare themselves already.

Stomach-stretching exercises? Buying pants with elastic waistbands?

Some people do that, too. Some are just moaning the "how much weight am I going to gain?", "which present will I have to bring to the annoying aunt?", "will we have to eat that disgusting thing that this annoying aunt is preparing?", "why on earth did I volunteer to host anything?" and "what are the current prices for flights abroad in the upcoming week?".

Send me some over.

The food is even nicer on Rosh Hashana, in some families (like, thankfully, mine), because parts of it are puns on the names of the foods, who are written or pronounced similarly to verbs or other words, so we can use the food as a way of asking something good for the upcoming year, using that verb. It's like eating a celery and saying "may we get a raise in salary", stuff like that. So the evening meals (during which this is conducted) are lots of fun.
