Hanukkah starts tonight (at sunset). 
I hope you all have a fun-filled 8 days & lots of latkes! 
I know we will over here.

Thanks Susan -- back at ya! Not sure if I'll be able to pass up my mom's homemade latkes this weekend, but will try and keep it under control :-).

I agree with celebrating semi-SBD for special occasions. As others have said before, this is a diet for life, so why shouldn't it be tailored to fit our real lives?

BTW, since this is an OT thread, here is a link to some historical information about Hannakah and some modern cultural considerations:

From those who are Jewish, any other links to info about the history of Hannukah? I thought we could share info
