Happy Hanukkah! Chag Sameach!
As tonight brings the lighting of the first candle……Happy Hanukkah to all who celebrate! 🕎

Have I mentioned how much I hate short stories? 😆 Everything was going so well until everybody died.
My husband and I read a few more stories and poems from this Christmas treasury every year (I got it for him for Hanukkah as part of our used book gift tradition). #Christmas #WinterHolidays #Winter #ShortStories

🕎 On the back of the photo, developed in 1932, Rachel wrote in German what family members now say was something of a prophecy:
“Death to Judah” — so the flag says
“Judah will live forever” — so the light answers
