Food A Honey Cocktail for Rosh Hashanah
Growing up, there were exactly four bottles in the Sussman family liquor cabinet — if you could call an out-of-the-way cubby above the microwave, reachable only by footstool, a “liquor cabinet.” The Kahlua was used for brownies or chocolate cake when we ran out of vanilla extract.
