The convergence of Hanukkah and Thanksgiving: It last happened in 1888 and it won’t happen again for another 77,798 years.

We found a Menurkey (a menorah shaped like turkey) that we will be using this year, and latkes will be the perfect complement to the more traditional mashed potatoes and sweet potato pie. We are serving dinner on Seletti hybrid plates (for the hybrid holiday) and the Manischewitz wine in Saint Louis blue crystal.
