So Simple & That Good Coffee Cake!

New Beginnings
September is all about new beginnings. children are going back to school, people saying goodbye to summer with Labor Day BBQ and fall fashion collections hitting the stores. In Israel September is often about the high holidays, Rosh Hashana, Kipur and Suckot all happening in the same month. It means that most people are crazy busy with planing dinners, buying gifts and also, if they can find the time, doing some thinking. Being as far as I am does not take away all that thinking and a few elements came together this past weekend. I thought about all the struggles I've been through and still am, what parts of it can I kiss goodbye, what will still be part of my daily life and what will simply sort itself on its own. A few images came to my mind and as always a taste bud arose to life in my mouth.

I think a lot about Eran and I trying to move forward in this life as a married couple and what that means. I love this picture because it reminds me that the journey should be together, and that we should always try to look forward and just be there for one another. And in a similar way I wanted to bake and eat a simple white cake, nothing fancy or fruity, just white moist and soft. So I made this simple coffee cake as a reminder that some things are better when they are in their most simplest form, like a bride and a groom walking together to their chuppa. To New Beginnings.
