Transitioning from sadness to Chanukah festivities, here are some erev scenes.  Outside it’s snowing and windy, but we’re ready.  We have donuts!  Most of our holiday decorations were packed away long ago in anticipation of moving, so I have to be extra clever and resourceful with what’s available, my specialty.  I can predict there will be latkes and fixin’s.  Also no doubt more photos later.
