One of the problems [with the] disease model doesn’t really let anyone get to the heart of the matter. The addictive substance can be dangerous, but our hearts are more so. When we examine our hearts, we find is that the greatest danger is that we are hooked on ourselves. If I am an alcoholic, my ultimate idol is not the bottle. It is I. I idolize myself. My desires are of first importance. My cravings rule – cravings for popularity, freedom from pain, revenge, or freedom from frustrations at home or work. Addiction is self-worship. This means that even if I give up alcohol, unless I deal head on with my biggest problem, I will never truly find freedom. I will just find something else to serve my desires.

Jews celebrate Rosh Hashanah - the beginning of the new year. The tradition
prescribes that we have to eat sweet things -as an omen for a sweet new
year. As such we serve slices of apple covered with honey. The real staple
is the Honig-leikech (the honey cake). This is my wife, Elena, recipe. This
honey-cake is the same that greets us as we return from the temple after
Yom-Kippur, to break the fast.
Beat sugar, honey and eggs for 5 min. 2. Add tea and brandy Add spices In a
separate bowl, mix flour with baking soda and baking powder.  Incorporate
to the sugar, honey, egg, etc., cream. Mix raisins, peels and nuts with a
bit of flour and add to the preparation. Fill 2 Aluminum English cake molds
(10cm W * 30cm L * 5cm H) up to 3/4 of their height. (My grandmother used
to make this cake in around mold with a hole in the center). Bake for 20
min. at 160 C. Now the mix will reach the border of the mold. Rise temp. to
180 C and bake for another 30 min. until done. Let cool, slice and serve .
This cake can be stored for up to 2 weeks wrapped in aluminum foil and it
can be  frozen to keep it for longer periods.
A good and sweet New Year for everybody!
