Hanukkah Celebration

Griffin and our neighbor friend Ethan have been learning about Hanukkah in school, so we had a small dinner one night of Latkes and applesauce. Emily (Ethan's Mom) gave a short summary of what Hanukkah is and why it is celebrated.

Neither Emily or I could find dreidals anywhere, so we weren't able to play the dreidal game, but I feel good just knowing the kids learned a little bit about another religion and what they believe.





If you don't know what Latkes are, they are described as potatoe pancakes. In my opinion, they are more like hashbrowns. They can be topped with a number of different things, but I think applesauce is most common.

"latkes, latkes, we want more!"
