conulyEvery year, I make a point of observing the first night of Hannukkah, because I believe that fried foods transcend religion. I like doing this, because its a simple menu that everybody loves that I don't have to think about - potato pancakes, applesauce, doughnuts. If you think for one second that I would ever pass up an excuse to gorge myself on potato pancakes and doughnuts, you have another think coming! Clearly, you don't know me at all.
But now it's bumping into Thanksgiving, and the whole world is excited, and I just can NOT get into it because doughnuts AND two types of pie AND a birthday cake (that's for Jenn) is really a bit much. There is a reason I don't "celebrate Hannukkah" every day of the year, and that is because I'm sure it is bad for you to indulge quite that much.
Also, I think potato pancakes and mashed potato at the same meal is overkill. There might be such a thing as too many potatoes, and if so, that's it.
So now I don't know what to do. I'm trying to juggle my menus, and every time I get the same result: something has to go.
