  I love Chanukah. The family moments around the menorah, the chanukah parties, the dreidel games, the taste and smell of hot, sizzling latkes, powdery sufganiot, and of course as a lover of all things chocolate- milk chocolate chanukah coins.
Ok, there was one thing I never liked- Chanukah vacation. Ladies admit it. For those of us who live in the frozen north, its dreadful. Every outing involves snowsuits, boots, runny noses, long lines (the whole world has vacation!) and endless snacks, diapers, and drinks. And then there are the cozy moments at home. You've already baked your third batch of chanukah cookies, watched endless Uncle Moishe videos and now it's time to be a real mom and do a...... PROJECT! Since I was never a person who could magically transform an empty milk carton into an adorable tzedaka box, I always turned to the expert for help - Morah Tami Schultz (AKA my little sister, but fondly known for two generations of parents and children as "Morah Tami".)

 I love dictionaries. I love words. But listless has me stumped. Webster's New Dictionary defines this as "indifferent because of illness or dejection". Well Mr. Webster, you and I will have to agree to disagree. I feel "listless" when I look at my kitchen counter and I can't find my list!( or lists) i.e better check living room, dining room table, purse, etc. You see, I am a list maker.  Whatever happened to the other sock?
Did you flee from the dryer and race down the block? Or maybe you're still crumpled in my old yellow croc? All my worry for you, you'll gleefully mock As you flyaway south with the missing sock flock |
