The Big Babka!
It’s no secret that we New Yorkers are proud of our fine city. However, ask the average New Yorker on the street if they’ve been to the Statue of Liberty, and chances are that they haven’t. Not only that, the average New Yorker squirms when they hear their home referred to as The Big Apple. People don’t really call it that around here. No way!
So let’s try this. Everyone, not just New Yorkers, loves a good babka:
As a matter-of- fact, I bet New Yorker’s consume larger quantities of these chocolate treats than they do apples. Therefore, we here at Kosher.com will be ignoring The Big Apple moniker and instead honoring one of the city’s finest deserts by referring to New York as The Big Babka.
To help us celebrate, if you are a resident of Manhattan, please send in pictures of your best babka (one you’ve made or from your favorite bakery, and please keep it clean kids) or if you can’t get your hands on a babka, an entertaining pic of you asking for one will do. We’ll be giving away 10 babkas to the Manhattan residents with the finest pics (they will be posted here). Remember, creativity counts! You can leave your entries as comments here, by sending them to our twitter account, by joining and submitting to the Flickr group pool, or by way of a Kosher.com Facebook event we’ve set up.
