Happy fifth night of Hanukkah to our Jewish friends tonight!

It is very common to hand out gelt (Yiddish word for money) during the holiday, which may be real coins or even chocolate coins these days. This gelt may even be used when playing dreidel as the antes during the game. Time to win a gelt jackpot!

Happy fourth night of Hanukkah to our Jewish friends tonight!

Did you know dreidels are also used to play a game? Each person gets a turn and each turn everyone puts an ante in the pot. Depending on what side lands up, the player may have to do nothing, put in another ante, take half the pot, or the whole pot. Sounds like fun!

Happy third night of Hanukkah for our Jewish friends tonight!

Many of us will be familiar with dreidels, the wooden spinning tops. The four sides show four letters: nun, gimmel, hey, and shin. They are an acronym that roughly translated means "a great miracle happened there." It's even said dreidels were used by students to get around a ban on reading the Torah in ancient Israel.

Happy second night of Hanukkah for our Jewish friends tonight!

Did you know what many people call a menorah is actually a hanukkaih? And the lit candles are to be lined up from right to left and lit from left to right with the lighting to be done after sundown. The ninth candle in the center? That's called the shamash.

Happy Hanukkah!

Tonight is the first night of Hanukkah for our Jewish friends. Also known as the Festival of Lights, Hanukkah celebrates the Maccabees retaking the Holy Temple and despite finding only enough oil to light a lantern for one day, it blazed on for eight. The focus of the holiday tends to be staying home with family and friends and I'm sure many of us will do just that on this Christmas Day! Fun fact: Did you know the last time Hanukkah started on Christmas Day was almost 20 years ago in 2005?

Advent finishes with peace!

For our Christian friends today marks the fourth and final Sunday of Advent. Traditionally the final candle is to represent peace. Peace is something the world has often struggled and still is challenged to find, but it's also something that can be a personal struggle. With the daily hustle and pressures, both external and internal, we can each struggle to find our own peace at times. Over the next few days, it may be especially beneficial to try to find our own peace. Maybe it's time with family or friends or a quiet cup of coffee alone. Whatever it may be, we hope you all find a little bit of peace this holiday season.
