It's that time of year again. Kaporos is afoot and we're faced with the age-old (well, maybe just a hundred or so years old) dilemma of whether to use a chicken or the spare change we find around the house.
For those of you unfamiliar, as part of the 10 days of repentance between (and including) Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, Jews are to engage in a pretty curious ritual. It's called kaporos, or in my family, "zoys challie foosie."
Here's a pic, it tells way more than a thousand words: Chicken head face!
So, anyone out there use a chicken--other than barseff?
