[community profile] questionoftheday asks: Does your family have any unique holiday traditions? What's the story behind them?

My answer: For Rosh Hashanah, we bake a birthday cake for the world. Weather permitting, we take it outside and have the wind blow it out.

For New Year's Eve, we eat a chocolate orange. Originally this was because we had usually picked one up on Boxing Day (just about the only time they're reasonably priced), but the tradition has fossilised enough that when Sobey's had a post-Easter sale on chocolate oranges and we saw they didn't expire until January, we went ahead and bought our New Year's orange then. It's been sitting in the cupboard since spring, and its time has almost come.
