It's Friday.

Ended up ordering a menorah from the Judaica shop in the next town over to be sent to the school. That way it would get there in time for Chanuka on Tuesday as I have no time to run all over for one. Ordered some chocolate from Wilbur Chocolate for a gift too (I wish they would have on-line ordering) - if you are ever in the the PA Dutch Country, visit their factory in Liditz (yes, they have samples!)

Ooooh...I will definitely have to do that and take the boys the next time I go up.

Ooh, free samples of chocolate. I'm near enough to PA Dutch country for a day trip, so maybe we'll have to try that in the spring or something.

Also--I figured, heck, you'd know this one. We're getting some new decorations for the house for the holiday season. Dave's kind of Christian and I'm Unitarian in the "well, gee, I don't really know WHAT religion works for me" sense. I wanted to get a nativity set that Hannah could play with, mainly because I had one when I was a kid. But... well, I'm not Christian, really, and I'd like to get something from the Jewish tradition as well. Our fellowship does a great job of exposing the kids to a bunch of cultures in RE, but if I only have Christian stuff at home, that's probably going to be her focus, y'know? So do you have any thoughts? A dreidel? Maybe an electric menorah? We plan to get books and such talking about various holidays, too--just not tomorrow. ;)
