In the best of our American Jewish/ #soviet #jewish syncretistic household, we have convinced our 4-year-old that his much-awaited present is being brought by a #yiddish -speaking “Grandpa #Hanukkah “ who is traveling to us by train from the Pale of Settlement (North Pale?), accompanied by a team of goats. We will prepare a chair and glass of wine for him, open the door for him, and he will deliver the present and drink some wine before leaving. #novygod #jewishstudies #judaism #holidays
