Hannukah

Hi Guys,
Happy Hannukah to those of you who celebrate this holiday.  Hannukah started at sundown on the 8th of december so we are about half way through it.  Most Jewish holidays start at sundown before the day or first day of the actual holiday.
Here we are putting candles in the hanukkah menorah, also called a hannukiah.

Admiring the candles:)
Here we are with our friend Rebecca, playing a game of dreidel.  We were using sunflower seeds to bet:) http://www.wikihow.com/Play-Dreidel
One of the things you eat for Hannukah are foods fried in oil, most commonly latkes (potato pancakes) but also sufganiyot (jelly filled donuts) but we are sharing a timbit instead from Tim Hortons (a chain that's a lot like Duncan Donuts)
