Zos Chanukah

As some of you may have seen earlier in the week, Chaim wanted to make whole wheat doughnuts. We pleaded with him and tried to convince him that whole wheat caramel- filled doughnuts don't really sound that appetizing. 
Well, he disagreed and insisted we try and make them anyway !!

Here was the start of the process.




We worked hard and after a few tries we were finally able to come up with a great recipe that came out DELICIOUS. Chaim couldn't get enough of  'em. 


One big bite for me !!!


Two big bites for me !!



No way mommy...you can't have it back ! It's Soooo Yummy !! 
And It's ALL MINE !!!


 Hope your Chanukah was as wonderful as ours.

A Freilichen Chanukah!

Chanukah is here- Chaim had a wonderful first experience. We lit outside of the building and everyone who passed by was inspired and only wanted to participate in the Mitzvah. They contributed 1/2 shekel each. We're RICH!!
Afterwards, Chaim enjoyed dinner with us, consisting of hot, delicious latkas and home-made applesauce!
Wishing you a Happy Chanukah!!
Missing you....


After dinner, we took a nice stroll to get some dessert (for Chaim, of course!).  On our way, we passed by a life-size Menorah! Chaim was mesmerized...



When we got to the ice cream store, we gave Chaim the opportunity to choose the flavor.  Chaim was so excited with all the options!



This was taken after he ate the delectable treats! Notice the big smile (on Chaim's face- not Simmy's!) :)
YUM!
