Thank you. That's a lovely phrase. I'll be sure to use it.

I found a recipe for latkes. Looks delicious. Thank you for this wonderful suggestion. (P.S. We're having latkes, mashed potatoes, and sweet potato casserole. With 18 people, that should be enough starch.)

Wonderful. We/They is the worst of all sin. I salute your attitude.

I got dreidels at Target; thanks very much for the suggestion. Tomorrow should be SO much fun combining two holidays and learning about Hanukkah. I hope our daughter-in-law is up for sharing her traditions with 3 little kids and 15 adults.

I bought 3 little gifts to wrap in Hanukkah paper for the 3 little girls to give the daughter-in-law as part of the experience.

Sounds like a wonderful Thanksgiving/Chanukah. We did the same thing.

I so enjoyed the picture you posted on another thread of your grandchildren helping light the Menorah. I know you are a kind and caring mother and grandmother and your family is so blessed with you as their matriarch.
