Happy Hanukkah-Christmas Eve!
How are you celebrating the holidays?
For the first time in 40 years, today is both Christmas Eve and the first night of Hanukkah, the Jewish "festival of lights." The last time this happened was in 1978.
So many of us celebrate one of these holidays that I thought it would be interesting to share something special about your holiday traditions and celebration plans. What do you do for the holidays?
My family celebrates both holidays – and I had to do a bit of work how to plan tonight’s dinner. We usually have latkes (potato pancakes) and beef brisket for Hanukkah. For Christmas Eve, "La Vigilia," I usually prepare a traditional Italian the Feast of the Seven Fishes plus tons of Italian Christmas Cookies for dessert. So my solution is Latkes Tapas Feast of the Seven Fishes – small plates including traditional Jewish, Italian and Neapolitan dishes. For some courses I am merging the traditions so the matzo balls in the soup will be replace with Ricotta-Parmesan dumplings. And the breadbasket will include challah. The only things that are common between the two traditions are the wine and candles.
Thankfully, I do not need to figure out the music!
So from my family to yours….
“Hanukkah Sameach” (Happy Hanukkah) and
“Buon Natale” (Merry Christmas)!!!
