To those friends who are beginning the first night of Hanukkah tonight, I wish you much joy and love and time spent with those you love! (eat some latke for me with sour cream!)

To those who are celebrating solstice or Yule – blessed Yule to you!

I love that so many different holiday traditions are celebrated in winter. It’s amazing to me how many different cultures and religions over time celebrate light through the darkness in some way or another. No matter what you celebrate, I wish you all the best.
