We hope to see you this Thursday, December 2, at 8:00 p.m. for our second annual Zoom candle lighting event. For the link, send an email to altetogether@gmail.com. It’s annual, because, as noted, this is the second time we are hosting this event, and we hope it will continue. For those of you on the call last year, it was our most successful Zoom event, as well as my personal favorite. Bring a menorah, or other candle if you’re so inclined. It’s lovely to watch people’s faces light up. It’s a kind of a Chanukah or Hanukkah or Hanukah event, or I think Larry would, from a transliteration perspective, more correctly write Khanike, or something like that. I am not sufficiently learned in Yiddish or in transliteration to know. I’ve always preferred a spelling with “ch.” That throat clearing sound feels important. It’s not a sound English speakers prefer, sounds too much like spitting. That’s kind of fun. Our Zoom party is al an all-purpose holiday event, like Festivus. Mostly it’s about light and sharing wishes. Whatever you choose to celebrate or not celebrate, we want to see you there.
