My younger son married a Jewish girl. What a blast we all have at this
time
of year celebrating both Christmas and Chanukah.

Both her family and ours celebrate both our traditional Christmas
activities
as well as their traditional Jewish traditions and celebrations. It has
made the holiday season much more interesting, educational, enjoyable and
just plain fun.

And the food is awesome.

Good thing the Jewish relatives are good cooks. My Sister in law is
Jewish, and about the only thing she makes is salad. And how great is a
green salad? Even with lots of stuff in it.

My daughter-in-law's father is the cook in her family and he prepares all
the traditional Jewish feasts during holidays. My first experience dining
at their house was surprising because a lot of the traditional foods,
particularly fish, reminded me of the Smorgasbord feasts my Scandinavian
grandmother used to put together when I was a kid.
