Happy Hannukah!

I may only be half Jewish, but I am in full support of fun menorahs. I wonder if the "Selection of Fruit" menorah comes with that exciting pink wallpaper.

And I wonder if the "Stylish Shoes" menorah will be updated next year to include those furry snow boots that everyone seems to be wearing this season. I kind of hope so. I think it would make a nice Shamash.

Please let me know if you come across an "Animals of the Arctic" menorah as I could not imagine a theme that would make me more enthusiastic about Hannukah. I can think of few things that might get one more in the holiday spirit than lighting a candle held by a sweet baby penguin or perhaps a blubbery little seal.

The cute thing about being half Jewish is that you get to use the full strength of the "ish" suffix. Ie: "I'm not a Jew. I'm JewISH."

Makes all the difference, really. It lets you be pro-menorah yet unsure as to the correct spelling of Hannukah/Channuka/(like ten other variations).
