fa la la la latkes

Two posts in one day??? Well, I had to announce that…

CHRISTMUKKAH HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN!!! According to the law book of the holiday, Christmukkah begins on the first night of Hanukkah and ends on Christmas day or the last night of Hanukkah (whichever goes the latest). Some years, I am told, can last up to 30 days long! Now that is a holiday season if you ask me. Last night, we ate potato latkes and lite the Menorah beginning with the candle furthest to the right.

Thanks, Joy and Kevin, for joining us to celebrate the first night of Hanukkah…I mean Christmukkah!!
