keeping warm during the power outage...
Our power was out for 21 hours yesterday. I had to find ways to keep busy with out flickr. My husband was at work and the kids were at school. I built myself a nice fire and being the photo addict that I am, I took photos throughout the day. Thank goodness my camera battery and laptop were fully charged proir to the storm. I wasn't able to flickr, but I was able to take and process some photos...

The four letters are: SHIN, HEY, GIMEL, NUN These letters mean "A Great Miracle Happened There."In Israel the dreidel is a bit different in that their letters mean " A Miracle Happened HERE!"
