How can you tell that Rosh HaShana, the Jewish New Year, is fast approaching, here in Israel? Easy - just walk into any grocery store, and you'll be greeted by these in the produce section:
A happy and sweet New Year to all!
Don't forget: On Tuesdays, just post any photo you like (it must be one of your own) that contains the color RED and then link to this blog. Happy Ruby Tuesday!

Wonderful shots Toby! Ktiva Vechatima Tova.
Are they beets?
Sorry I'm not sure...
Happy Ruby Tuesday ~
I LOVE pomegranates but they aren't in our stores yet. It's funny how many North Americans have never tasted this fruit.
Patti - these are pomegranates, sweet and delicious. A sure sign are the "crowns" on top!
what re they? sorry, first time i've seen such fruit :D I like their color though. happy RT!
Sorry if I was misleading - the crown on top of each one is a hint that they are pomegranates - not that they are sweet :)
Mmm I love these too, you should photo one cut open it would be so pretty
A favorite of mine!!!! I just planted a tree last year...hoping in a couple of years I'll have some right in my own back yard!!
My Ruby Tuesday is up...this week, "Sweet William" --scroll down below my Tuesday's Heads or Tails section.
I've never eaten any.
I like the last closeup shot showing the little crown.
Great minds think alike.
But I love your pomegranates better. I can hardly wait for the chag... yum!
Precioso!! Las Granadas me recuerdan A UNA festidad en especial, muchas gracias por compartir estas fotos conmigo, me llenaron el alma de esperanza, Chany .-
Thanks for coming, everyone! Those of you who haven't tried pomegranates should try if you get a chance - they're wonderful, and so pretty!
G6 - I'm quite impressed that your table is already set for the holiday - I'm still in the planning stages.
And Chany - ¡Soy feliz que usted disfrutara de mi fotografía!
Wow pomegranates!!! Happy Jewish new year to you! :)
Quiet a number of my Chinese neighbour grew pomegranates tree in a pot,the leaves are used to chase away bad luck, I think.
Happy Jewish new year to you.
ooohhhh i love pomegranites..gorgeous inside & out!!
Nothing typifies Rosh Hashana like pomegranates - yum! (Reminds me, I need pomegranate juice for the roast I'm making for chag. Must get that.)
Thanks, everybody! And Robin, I'm glad to have helped remind you :)
Um, those are luscious! Love the crowns on the top. Much more grandiose looking than the one I bought yesterday here in NJ.
great shot. Love their juices. happy RT
Relax Toby -
That photo is from a previous year.
I imagine that the table would get a bit dusty, no? Besides where would I dump my mail (much to my dear husband's chagrin)?)
Have a lovely chag.
Oh looks yummy like that...Happy RT!

I just celebrated my birthday.
Looks succulent.
my grandmothers back porch would have been filled with crops she raised this time of the year great memory
