apple cake

Sure. I would like the recipe. Is there a reason that apple cake is a Jewish thing?

I don't have the recipe, but I'm Jewish so I can guess. It is traditional at the Jewish New Year's to have apples dipped in honey - symbols of wishing us a fruitful and sweet new year. While most people make Honey Cake for the New Year, some people make Apple Cake instead. It is very possible that the recipe has honey in it, which would make it a perfect Jewish New Year's cake.

(HTH)

Thanks. I was doing a search on apple cakes recently and found many Jewish apple cake recipes. I knew there had to be a reason. Now, if I could only find someone that could explain why the Easter bunny leaves chicken eggs ....

the easter bunny doesnt leave the chicken eggs thats just been put into our heads as we grown up. the reason there are eggs is becuase in older times when they used to fast for the holiday the kids would decorate eggs and would have them to eat at the end of fasting as for the easter bunny i dont know where he/she came from..maybe its a conspiracy that has to do with the cadberry cream egg company haha jk.

If it isn't the Easter Bunny, than who does leave them? Just wait until next Easter and don't be surprised if you get nothing. The Easter Bunny is a very sensitive fellow and you might have hurt his feelings. MS

The Easter bunny is MALE? That makes the egg thing even more intriguing....

"> The Easter bunny is MALE? That makes the egg thing even more

He's male and the eggs are colored ,,,,,,,,,,,ummmmmmmmmm,, very interesting

Yes, and the very small chocolate eggs left by the bunny... I don't even want to think about that!!!

Ha! Ha! This brought me out of lurking. My sister has a friend whose brother told her about "Magical Mystical Blueberries". When this girl was very young, her mother caught her under the rabbit cage outside. She was gathering "Magical Mystical Blueberries" to put in her cereal. :-)

Ugh!

Suddenly it seems so much simpler to be Jewish.
