The holidays being early this year, the first day of Rosh Hashanah came on Suzanne's first day of school but she chose to create cheeses and salads and apples and challah to go with desserts as we prepared for the Kramers to arrive so that apples could be dipped in honey and Peter could sit in the ``Jeff chair'' adding to our collection of people in the small chair before we sat down to eat this meal

which amused people on both sides of the table and the author in this self portrait as desserts were served and Suzanne maintained her end of the table.
