We never had one quiet beautiful night of Hanukkah. We were at soccer tournaments (6 to 8 p.m. on school nights. Who schedules that?!), meetings, other nonsese. (To be fair, some of the rush-rush was because I had to replaced a totalled car immediately.) The only time I got to make latkes was the night after the last night of Hanukkah. They were for an ethnic party at my son's high school, not for the family. Great idea, but honestly running between the computer (I work at home)and the kitchen to fry up three pounds of potatoes by 4:45 so I could make it to an important client's holiday party far away by 5:30 was horrendous. I was so stressed I forgot to buy the sour cream and applesauce. My husband had to come home early, scoop up the kid and the latkes, stop into the supermarket and zoom over to the high school--and of course they were late, which was entirely my fault. Give me a spiked glass of eggnog and let me stay home! Oh please! We never had one quiet beautiful night of Hanukkah. We were at soccer tournaments (6 to 8 p.m. on school nights.
