"Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored." Titus 2:3-5 (NASB)

We've had a pretty full evening. Tonight was the night that my hubby made his latkes!
He did an awesome job! We had our traditional foods tonight - latkes and sufganiyot (doughnuts). Not a highly nutritious meal but it's traditional Hanukkah foods and it's only one night a year. My hubby and son did have some salad as well. During the cooking of latkes, we lit our candles and my hubby said the blessings. Then....while my hubby continued making latkes, the children and I ate latkes and played dreidels. It was fun!
After we were all done eating (my hubby did eat dinner as well) and dishes were cleaned up, it was bon-bon time! We decided to make the bon-bons together as a family instead of it just being the children and myself. We really had fun! Of course, the children and I both got to sample a bon-bon each. The children enjoyed rolling the filling into little balls. I think my daughter especially liked it because it was sooooo messy! I put some powdered sugar on a piece of wax paper on the table for them to dab their hands in so that the filling mixture wouldn't stick all over their hands. You should have seen the mess! But they had fun! My hubby and I coated the filling with the chocolate. We also made some chocolate-coated marshmallows. We did one batch of oreo filling and my hubby counted about 55 bon-bons! We already have some friends that would like some so we're setting aside some out of this batch just for them! I know they will be so happy! We're probably going to make another batch some other day so that we can give some more away. My hubby had fun arranging some of the bon-bons for a picture for me to share here on my blog. I hope they turn out well because he really arranged them nicely! I told him he might very well enjoy photography! He also took a picture (or two or three...) of some latkes. As of right now, my plan is to do a little slideshow thing of pictures from our 8 nights of celebration. We'll have to get all the film developed onto a CD first. Hopefully, we'll be able to do that by the first of next week!
I am just LOVING to read all your HOLYday celebrations. I wish I lived close enough to taste your bon bons ! That is cute that your dc have had so much fun and hubby too. [ 0=
Are you guys a military family? I have you linked under that on my blog but I'm not sure you are. I may have placed your link in the wrong spot but before I change it I just wanted to check.
Thanks! Enjoy your Hannukah celebration!
Hello. Just passing by while I'm on vacation for the day from blogging. lol. Wanted to remind everyone that tomorrow is another round of Weblink Wednesday if you want to share. It is Holiday themed, but your link doesn't have to be about the holiday.
I never thought. I love BonBons, I love Chocolate coever Cherries, yummy! Now mind you my thighs don;t, but I do!!
I will have to get the recipe of how you went about doing that. I would love to make them homemade.

The ultimate goal of Christian home education is to train children to impact the world for God. We want our children to not only hear and learn God's Word, but also be doers of God's Word. Therefore, we strive to teach them:
SERVICE - How to serve God and others
ACHIEVEMENT - To do the best they can in all they do from academic subjects to chores to serving others and more
LOVE - To love God and one another
TRUTH - To live their lives based on the absolute Truth of God
The name of this blog is the acronym for these four areas that we strive to teach our children:
S.A.L.T. - Service, Achievement, Love, Truth
