Days of Awe (and Latkes)

Field & Pantry friends, I am sorry. I began this post on September 17, intending to write about the Jewish high holidays, the fall, the cakes and tarts and preserves of the season. I stepped away from my desk for a moment and clearly entered some kind of time machine because here I am, many weeks later, sitting down to complete the post. Where did the time go, we all like to say? On one level,

How to Share an Egg by Bonny Reichert
“Grief is not what I thought it would be. It comes over me at random moments- a pressure behind the eyes. A crawling under the skin. My insides feel disorganized and chaotic. A light has been left on in the closet. Each tiny bit of disorder adds to a hot ball of anger growing inside me. I find myself yelling about nothing.”

How to Share an Egg by Bonny Reichert
“Someone can love you as much as it's possible to love. He can guide you and shield you and tell you everything he knows. He can share the truths he's learned through on of the most brutal events in human history. Still, they are his truths. No matter how vast his experience, no matter how much he has overcome, someone else's truth cannot be your truth. Nobody knows the path you're supposed to take; the decisions you must make to define your own journey toward independent selfhood. That job is yours and yours alone.”
