and for those who didn't know (like myself), according to Wikipedia
A dreidel (Yiddish: דרײדל dreydl, Hebrew: סביבון Sevivon) is a four-sided spinning top, played with during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah.

Oh yes, and Happy Hanukkah to everyone. It doesn't matter what your beliefs are, but it makes a great excuse to celebrate a holiday!

Is it me or just nostalgia speaking when I ask of you,
Are Christmas memories more precious as those years of living accrue?
Back when you were little & magic seemed so real,
Life to you was in a world that was really quite ideal,
Leafing through the catalogue & doing a little dreaming,
Hoping Santa knew you had behaved in ways that were redeeming,
Long before the high tech days & before unplugged was cool,
When the countdown was on for holidays & finally no more school,
My mom would disappear into her room with rolls of wrapping paper,
Sneaking a peak was tempting, but I could never pull off that caper,
The house always looked so nice decked in euphoric merriment,
Through my eyes now looking back it was really quite an event,
I realize now how my parents defined what it is to give your all,
& when I get the Christmas blues that’s the memory that I recall,
Sometimes at Christmas we grumble about how busy it tends to be,
Obligations & visiting those whom you don’t really care to see,
You are after all accumulating remembrances you can just chalk up to life,
Be as kind as your can to others, it will help you deal with strife,
Times may be hard for some of us, & we all have our concerns,
So my Christmas wish for all of you is that you have many happy returns.
p.s. when I was a little gal, I used to love the times when we would take the streetcar downtown to look at the beautiful Christmas windows.

Happy Hanukkah everyone! Don't forget to enjoy the latkes as you play with the dreidel.
Hope everyone managed to stay warm. The dog convinced me she wanted to go up to the rooftop patio to play. Her enthusiasm lasted all of 5 minutes, before she was trying to open the door to go back inside.
Night all.Last edited by Andit; Fri, Dec 11th, 2009 at 11:23 PM.
