Ready for Tomorrow

I had to do a kamikaze run today in search of menorah candles. Somehow I'd ended up with only half a box left for this year, and those candles do go fast when you start getting to the sixth and seventh nights. Ralphs and RiteAid were useless, but Bed Bath and Beyond had lots of candles left. And the candles were pretty, and 50% off.


But the best score was that placemat thingy -- the package said something like, "the holiday is full of traditions, like the tin foil you use to keep the wax off your table, but use this instead." At 50% off it was worth trying, and Boylee was mightily interested in the printed prayers -- the one we know already, and two more that he wanted to read himself.

Maybe next year: a bigger, better menorah.
