Hannukah - My favorite season!
Anyone not familiar with the story and traditions of Hannukah can read this for a rather good overview. But miracles and dedication aside, one of the best things about Hannukah is this: for eight days it's not only totally legal, but we're actually encouraged to EAT! And eat not just any foods, but especially sweets and fried foods - all of that delectable stuff we have to avoid for the rest of the year.
Yummy stuff like:
Latkes (potato pancakes)...
...and, better yet, Sweet Potato Latkes...
Deep-fried Artichokes...
Apple Fritters...
Chocolate Hazelnut Tart...
Gelt (chocolate money!!)...
Rugelach...
And my favorite... Sufganiyot (jelly donuts)!!...
You're not really done until you can feel your arteries hardening...
L'chaim!
