Tonight I am off to my good friend's Hanukkah party for some potato latkes and a few rounds of dreidle! I wanted to make dreidle and menorah shaped cookies but both Homesense and Michael's Arts & crafts were out so I had to improvise with some Christmas stars and Jewish coloured sprinkes (I didn't know sprinkles could choose a religion!)
White Chocolate Thumbprints all decked up for Hanukkah! |
My new favourite trick- rimming martini glasses with coloured sugar for the upmost in elegance |
Mamma Sita fell asleep on my wrapping paper :) |
