The Jewish Holiday of Hanukkah starts tonight and I am sure many of you will be lighting you Menorahs when the sun goes down this evening. When I was searching for something fun and unusual to post, my usual places such as Life Magazine Photo Archives came up empty, and I didn’t want to post another boring photo of candles burning, so I will share a children’s book about traditional Hanukkah potato pancakes - latkes (locally latkes are available at The D’Bronx Deli):
For the musical part of this post please enjoy a Hanukkah song written by the US Senator from Utah Orin Hatch.
Happy Hanukkah!
Happy Hanukkah! When I was 13, I went to 26 Bat/Bar Mitzvahs and really pretty bomb dig at the dreidel
Oh, and chocolate coins..gelt…yum-o!
A woman goes to the post office to buy stamps for her Chanukah cards.
She says to the clerk, “May I have 50 Chanukah stamps?”
The clerk says, “What denomination?”
The woman says, “Oh my God. Has it come to this? Give me 6 Orthodox, 12 Conservative, and 32 Reform.”
Ha
Never let it be said I don’t respect all manner of holidays: Today I went to Menorah Medical Center to have my mammies grammed. Just, you know, to celebrate the holiday. That does count, right? Menorah?
Sure it counts, can’t be a coincidence
I may be a little late, but Happy Hanukkah to you and wishes for a fantastic New Year !
