Shabbat the 20th(candle # 5) will be a full
Chanukah Oneg. Suggestions for full Oneg include:
(In addition to the above items)
Latkes (potato pancakes, traditional Hanukkah)
Apple Sauce (for the Latkes)
Sour Cream (for the Latkes)
Ketchup (for the Latkes)
Jambalaya (Kosher)
Waffle Cones
Casseroles
For table decor:
Hanukkiahs (Your Hanukkah Menorahs)
Gelt (supplied)
Dreidels (supplied)
Polaroid type camera
Confetti
Some essential that you’ll want to have:
Latkes – You can buy the latkes
(potato pancakes) mix in the grocery
stores, usually in the international
food section. Given that Latkes
are one of the two primary traditional
Hanukkah foods, it really is important
that everyone get to have a least one.
Jelly Doughnuts:
This is the other traditional food that
you will always find during Hanukkah.
They are called sufganyiot and
they are actually deep fried
(much like beignets) jelly filled
doughnuts sprinkled with powdered
sugar. A substitute … regular jelly filled
doughnuts sprinkled with powdered
sugar will most definitely do.
Also, for those who have one, bring along your
Chanukiah’s ….
Be blessed as you walk with the King!
