There’s that magical vibe! Sound quality, music, visuals, characters…everything in this production has been enhanced. It’s so much fun to watch Uncle Moishy sing his latest songs along with his animal friends while teaching about Torah and mitzvos in his own charming way (and mom won’t mind sitting down to enjoy it with them too).

We know we don’t need to say much because these photos pretty much ensure that you’ll want to serve a buffet of party breads at your party. So, shall we get right to the instructions?
You’ll need the long baguettes that are sold in the bakery section of your local supermarket. 
Toast bread for a few minutes after slicing if desired. Fill with fresh falafel balls (you can cut them in half), Israeli salad, and lots of drizzled techina.
Add: Mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, olives, and Italian seasoning. Drizzle top with olive oil. Bake in oven until cheese is melted.
Add: 5-6 ounces goat cheese, caramelized onions, and sliced Pink Lady apples. Drizzle top with olive oil on top. Bake in oven until cheese is melted.

Once you have a color scheme, you will find more accessories in various craft stores. I found theses straws at Michael’s.
I ordered 
Underneath the hot cups I placed a square of fur that I purchased at Stitch n’ Sew for a few dollars. I wanted to add some ‘warmth’ to the scene. 
These chocolate covered spoons are so easy to prepare and so much fun. Just melt white or dark chocolate and top with your favorite toppings. To display, cut out a piece of Styrofoam to fit the tray and just stand them up. Cover the Styrofoam with mini marshmallows to conceal.
Display fun add-ins and toppings on your Hot Cocoa bar. I included fudge (chocolate syrup), peppermint, white chocolate, chocolate chips, and chocolate-covered marshmallows (great for stirring or just eating). 
Soup bars are so much fun when setting up a party in winter. Whether you are having a milchig or fleishig menu there’s so much you can add in form of toppings and accompaniments. I included different crackers, croutons, bread sticks, pumpkin seeds, and Terra Stix on the buffet. The soups featured here and the beautiful soup warmers (which are available for rental) are courtesy of The Green Bowl (they’re a beautiful way to serve wholesome soup!). 
You can find these inexpensive wood boards that come with the hook at Michael’s and spray paint them to match your color scheme. Then use a sharpie to customize them, with your own cute slogan.
These just work well with soup. Or salad. Or anything. I just eat them plain too, come to think of it. Hey, let’s get real here. These usually don’t even make it to the serving dish; they just get eaten straight from the pan in our kitchen. Yep. 
Over the years the recipe has adapted slightly (replacing salt with the chicken soup consomme/mix) to be a little more health-conscience. However, I believe that if you are going to make fried chicken once a year, if you do have consomme, use it. And after all, it’s fried chicken (so don’t make believe we’re making it healthy). With all the right ingredients in place, there is something quite addictive about this dish. 
My mother-in-law always uses fine bread crumbs. For our photoshoot I used golden breadcrumbs (yellow colored bread crumbs that are slightly more coarse.) Both will work well. 
Each year, Shaarei Adirim runs a confidence campaign where bochurim work on building confidence to overcome their personal “I can’t” moments. The following story took place during last year’s campaign:
Rabbi Elbaum went back to his office and called Chaim’s mother to talk it over. They came up with a plan, deciding that a friend would accompany him and his mother arranged for an Uber to take them directly to the office. Rabbi Elbaum went to tell Chaim the solution, but before he could speak, Chaim said, “Rebbi, I have the confidence. I will go.”
“Bochurim who leave out yeshiva will have what it takes to be successful at life. They’ll sit and learn with a Gemara and with a chavrusa, or go to a shiur if that’s what they prefer. They’ll be koveah ittim. They’ll get a job and know what their responsibilities are when taking care of a family. He’ll have it together. Not everything that Hashem sends us is in our control. Our chiyuv is to be mechanech our bochurim and give them to tools to be successful, with whatever abilities they were given,” says Rabbi Epstein

It works great and fits 3-4 donuts at a time. Since the oil stays at a consistent temperature, your donuts will feel less oily and there’s less mess. If you’re hosting a big crowd and need to fry larger quantities, you may want to use the
Pour a bit of water into the candle holder before adding the candle. 
The candle will extinguish when it gets almost to the end, right before it melts into that glob. Then, you can pop it right out. No melted wax to scrape!

My mother had this salad, prepared by my aunt Yenty Roth, at a shalosh seudos. It was the first to go and her immediate thought was, “This would be good for Between Carpools.” The quantities are enough to suit a crowd. You can serve it in a regular salad bowl, as shown, or layer it in a glass trifle, like my aunt Yenty did. The sesame seeds on the eggplant and sweet potatoes make those little bites particularly addictive. You can easily half this for a smaller crowd.
And speaking of gifts, here’s the greatest gift we can give our children this Chanukah, whether we buy them material presents or not: love. Love comes in hugs and kisses, in song and laughter, in acceptance and marital peace. We give it to our children when we forgive them and our spouse for their mistakes, when we’re patient as they learn, when we give them their space to grow and develop into the unique individuals they were destined to be. Children who are bombarded with material gifts but live in a home devoid of love and serenity grow up with a deep void in their heart. But children who grow up enveloped in love? Give them anything and their eyes will glow—today and always.
