Shavuah tov! We had a short week last week with a big holiday: Thanksgivikkah, the one and only. Between the great latkes, brisket turkey and other foods, the family celebrating together with candle lighting and Chanukah presents, and the dreidel after dinner, we didn’t get a chance to write this until after Shabbat (blame the turkey/latke coma).
Meanwhile Chanukah marches on! We have several candle lighting ceremonies this week: tomorrow (Sunday) night, Westminster lights a menorah for Jessica Ridgway, Monday night is the Pearl St. Mall menorah lighting in Boulder; Tuesday night is Chanukah on Ice in Louisville, and Wednesday night, light a menorah in Lafayette.
Have a great week! Here are this week’s stories that ran in the BJN:
