L'Chayim to all and to all a good night!
Hanukkah Harry Quote: |
Hanukkah Harry is a man in an old-time traditional vest (coat removed) and fur hat with a grey beard. During the eight days of Hanukkah, he rides in a wagon pulled by three donkeys (named Moishe, Herschel, and Schlomo). Much like Santa, he delivers presents to children during the eight days of Hanuakkah. However, instead of residing at the North Pole, Hanukkah Harry and his workers (who are elderly Jewish retirees being paid "under the table" so as to avoid losing their social security benefits) reside in Miami and wear blue clothing otherwise reminiscent of Santa and his elves. Upon entering homes during the nights of Hanukkah he would exclaim, "oy, presents"

Anyway, here's to all my fellow Shlomos and Shlomettes on this holiday. |

Happy Chanukah. As I told a Jewish friend of mine the other day, just make sure there is enough room between the Menorah and the curtains.
Last year our very old church burned down. The fire was started by Advent candles left burning by our new pastor.  He's still a bit chagrinned as you can well imagine.
Holidays can be dangerous.

You're right about the fire hazard, MuskyHopeful. My husband and I went to his parents' house yesterday, and I brought our menorah and candles. My MIL said, "Isn't that a bad idea, with Dad being on oxygen?" How could I forget that???? 
I remember the fire in your 100+ year old church. How sad that must be for your congregation.
