Admittedly, I don't know a great deal about Hanukkah other than what one picks up from having friends who celebrate the holiday. However, I was lucky enough to spend an evening with a friend's family as they enjoyed what they explained was a traditional dinner during the holiday season. Between the ceremony, the wonderful food and the sense of mystery (being on the outside of it all), I feel very blessed for the experience.

If you and your family are celebrating Hanukkah, here's to a warm and blessed season. Happy Hanukkah.
