Happy Chanukah

Tonight at sunset Chanukah begins.

I'm not sure what the traditional wording of good wishes is...but how about this?

May your latkes be crisp and your donuts light.

May your candles burn bright and bring hope and faith to all who see them.

May all your spins land on gimmel.

And may there be peace.

And now a couple of you may tell me what I SHOULD say.

    English: Happy Chanuka
    Hebrew: Chanuka Sameach or Chag Sameach
    Yiddish: A Freilichen Chanuka

    May there be lots of sour cream and applesauce for your latkes too!

    AND PLEASE keep your children safe and away from the candles/oil...

  3. I was going to say Chag Sameach, but I like your version much better!
