The Festival of Lights Has Begun
"Hanukkah is the festival of lights. Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy nights” - Thank you Adam Sandler for the catchy little tune that introduces people to the delicious little Jewish Holiday of Hanukkah, which has begun, and ends the evening of the 17th. Families light the candles, spin the dreidel and eat Fried potato pancakes (aka latkes) and jelly-filled doughnuts. Of course, area restaurants have offerings to check and no, you do not have to be Jewish to get in on all the deliciousness.
