Chanukah customs include eating latkes (potato cakes) and sufganiot (doughnuts) that are deep fried in oil, playing with the dreidel (a spinning top on which are inscribed the Hebrew letters nun, gimmel, hei and shin) and the giving of Chanukah gelt, gifts of money, to children.

Enjoy!

P.S.  I’ll take mine medium rare with extra relish 

Brilliance runs in the the family.

Commence, commencement…to begin, start, the beginning.  Does it mean the beginning of the ceremony or the beginning of the graduates’ futures?  It sounds so formal, so “pomp and circumstance”.  I guess they go together – “Shall we commence with the pomp and circumstance”.  In any case, graduates of all ages and disciplines will be reaping the rewards of their hard work.  What a special time for the grads and their proud families!  These ceremonies, or commencements, couldn’t be at a better time of year.  Typically held on a beautiful sunny day in June where just about every graduate’s future seems bright and full of wonderful prospects – even in today’s economy.

Your Future Looks Bright

Hooo Graduated?

Who?  It could be anyone, not just your kids.

Don’t forget those special graduates like Mom, Baby Sitter, Daughter in Law, Friend, Step Daughter and many other relationships. Step Son, Godson, Wife Congratulations to all of the graduates in the Class of 2009

Good job, well done and a hearty bravo!

That’s it, done, finished.  Uncommenced. 

“Brother from another Mother”

We’ve all heard the saying and yes, you may not admit it but at some time or another you’ve actually said it, “my brother from another Mother”, it’s catchy.  With the growing number of non-traditional family roles there are many “motherly” relationships to consider and acknowledge in addition to good old Mom like your Mother in Law , Step Mom, Godmother , Foster Mom , Birth Mom , Both of my Moms, like a Mother to me, and many more!

This is a wonderful time to remember not only your own Mom but other special females in your life who happen to be Mothers too, like your
Aunt, Grandma ,Teacher , Sister , Daughter in Law , Best Friend,  Babysitter , Step Daughter and others

And let’s not forget perhaps two of the most special times to celebrate Mother’s Day, a 1st Mother’s Day and for the Expecting Mother .

Now, some nuggets of advice for those husbands with children.  Don’t think, as my own father does, that because your wife is not your Mother that you do not need to participate in this holiday.  That’s just ridiculous, get over it.  Plenty of cards to choose from to keep you out of the dog house.

A bit of trivia, the creator of Mother’s Day, Anna Jarvis, likely an unappreciated mother of the early 20th century, actually protested the sending of paper greeting cards vs. hand written cards.  She felt it over commercialized the holiday.  We hope our collection of Mother’s Day greeting cards would have pleased the critic in Anna and that she would have sent one to her very own Mother or even the Mother of her other Brother (gasp!)

Ah, just thinking about all the love to be bestowed upon so many Moms in May just warms my heart
And here is the card I’ll be giving my own mom this year (don’t tell).
