Happy Chanukah

[davids]

Remember, a great miracle happened there:

Same to you! I may just have to go out to a nearby restaurant with latkes better than mom makes*.

*Shhh, don't tell her I said that.

We had solar powered dreidels and stuff FedEx-ed in from The Sharper Image atmo. Happy Chanukah.

Those look good. davids is still in the lead in the music department. Aimee Mann, Susanna Hoffs and Ted Leo for the win.

Just lit the candles!

Gave my wife her gift (thanks again Chase!) As the family goy, to make a menorah is my job usually. But last few years, such a work order has not been sent out by the central office. But the gift is still appreciated.

Menorah Jones atmo -

I saw a t-rex menorah which I thought was pretty cool, but apparently they are plastic toys with candle holders glued on

My, Miami Vice Menorah. Please note the white and green speckle paint. And, the Blue Anodization.

Happy Chanukah to all

[davids]

I used to make latkes from scratch with my mom's recipe (from the good folks at Osterizer...) but now we get 'em out of a box.
And they're damn good.
No photos, we ate them all.

To all my Hebrew pals I hope you have a meaningful holiday and can spend that time with the people you hold most dear.

This thread motivated me to whip up some last minute latkes with the only available suitable ingredient, a massive sweet potato. Candle lighting was fun, especially because our nearly three-year old knows the blessing word for word on her own. Which is certainly more a reflection of her ability to memorize than any kind of devoted practice on my part.

did candles with the girls during thanksgiving week this year because...reasons.

Took coworkers to a traditional jewish christmas lunch yesterday since I'm sending a bunch to Kenya/Philippines over the next few weeks. Fun was had by all and a bunch of misconceptions were dispelled. Sweet potato latkes should become a thing at my house. We are in the south after all...when we were in Okinawa we did beni-imo latkes.

The "Jewish Christmas"?
It's a major holiday?

C'mon, let's share stories.
