Happy Hanukkah!

This is too funny…my mom sent this link over to me and it is very appropriate for this Hanukkah/Thanksgiving season!

You can’t have Hanukkah without Adam Sandler’s song!

National Menorah Lighting Ceremony

For all of you that need a bit of help with the phonetics of the daily blessing over the menorah, I found this (and will be using it!):

1. Ba-ruch A-tah Ado-nai E-lo-he-nu Me-lech ha-olam a-sher ki-de-sha-nu be-mitz-vo-tav ve-tzi-va-nu le-had-lik ner Cha-nu-kah.

2. Ba-ruch A-tah Ado-nai E-lo-he-nu Me-lech Ha-olam she-a-sa ni-sim la-avo-te-nu ba-ya-mim ha-hem bi-zman ha-zeh.

3. Ba-ruch A-tah Ado-nai E-lo-he-nu Me-lech Ha-olam she-heche-ya-nu ve-ki-yi-ma-nu ve-higi-a-nu liz-man ha-zeh.

Note that you say all three prayers on the first night of Hanukkah.  Every subsequent night you say the first and second only.
