Oy veh.. i’m busier than a  <insert your favorite busy analogy here>.. End of year stuff for work, and play have me chasing my tail again.

One nice punctuation is that tonight is the first night of Chanukah.. a rather minor holiday for my people recently pumped up to try and approximate christmas.. We don’t do that.. we do light the candles and say the ancient and cryptic blessing.. ..

the real meaning of this holiday is political.. not religious…..

 

no let me correct that.. the real meaning of this holiday is culinary.. !.. It’s all about the Latkes baby.. .. you eat them with sour cream, salt, ketchup, mustard, hot sauce, apple sacue.. any kind of sauce.

my stomach is growling for them right now..

 

Diane is offering me a really good  incentive to finish off my year of work.. We get latkes when I finally can close my computer (or at least my work computer) for the year..

 

that’s a tall order when I see all that I need to get done first..

but latkes are just the incentive that I need.

 

nite all, nite sam
