Light the candles!



Tonight is the first night of Hanukkah, which my husband and I celebrate. I've learned so much about the Jewish faith since marrying him 13 years ago. And I've gotten great at making latkes! :-)

No family to celebrate with this year, so we're not going to make any kind of big feast. Instead, it's dinner out at a restaurant of the hubby's choice. Yum!

One of his gifts is a stained glass dreydel. He collects them and this one is really beautiful. Hope he likes it!

To those of you who are also celebrating tonight, I leave you with this blessing:

Baruch ata Adonai, Elohenu melech ha-olam
asher kideshanu be-mitzvotav, ve-tzivanu le-hadlik
ner shel Hanukah


Happy Hanukkah!
