Happy Hanukkah!

Still love those perks of my husband's job.  He brought home a box of donuts from one of his shows.

Well, it wasn't a full box.  But it was just in time for Hanukkah.  Fried foods!
We also had latkes (potato pancakes)

and applesauce.

And some parmesan chicken, which isn't traditional Hanukkah food, but we wanted it with our meal.

I think this was the first time we did food for Hannukah.  Usually we spin the dreidel.  We sometimes talk about where the "Festival of Light" came from.  This year after we do our scripture study in the morning and the kids get their mint M&Ms for answering questions, we talk about Hanukkah and the kids get a donut for answering questions.
Again it's a nice way to learn about different cultures.  And eat food.

For the past couple years, Jeremy's also been able to twist balloons at a Hanukkah party at the synagogue in Park City.  He builds a large (you can see how large by this picture) menorah for them and has a nice time there.
Happy Hanukkah!
