It's the loveliest time of the year... Hanukkah! Due to a chance conjunction of the lunar calendar this year, its annual Christmas party coincides with the ancient Jewish festival of fried foods. So this year Santa's wearing blue, the elves are starting a klezmer band and stockings will be stuffed with dreidels and fried latkes.
Please join WIA/LA for its Annual Christmas Party: "Hannukah Claus." The menorah will be lit at 6:00 pm on Thursday, Dec. 14, at the Barsac Brasserie, located at 4212 Lankershim Blvd. in North Hollywood.
WIA will have music, schmoozing, networking and a bank of frying pans for a latke-making contest. Potatoes, schmaltz and a variety of implements will be cheerfully provided. There will be a selection of finger foods (we'll try for kreplach, but we make no promises) and a cash bar will provide you with liquid cheer.
To RSVP, call the Hotline at (310) 535-3838 or email LAchapterrsvps@aol.com before Tuesday, Dec.12.
