Can you believe that Chanukah is upon us!? I love Chanukah and I am used to throwing big parties and fun celebrations in our Montana community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is going to look really different this year as we are not going to be able to have our annual Chanukah Bash. It\u2019s one of our favorite events of the year and my kids really look forward to it. So, I decided to throw a Chanukah party for my family like I would for our guests. Something practical and fun, kid friendly but also elegant. This was as much of a treat for me as it was for my family. We need to be able to create that special holiday spirit, no matter what. Nothing does that for me more than a thought-out party infused with lots of love, but let\u2019s be real, I\u2019m not a content creator at all, so I decided to go out of my comfort zone. I created a family friendly Chanukah party that I hope will inspire you to take the time and put the effort in to make this Chanukah special for your family too!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I like to find that one item that helps drive the stylish decor. This time, I found a gold menorah in Target that gave me something concrete to work with. I then found paper goods that worked. Personally, I didn\u2019t want the typical Chanukah plates and blue and white wasn\u2019t speaking to me. I was happy to find something locally that fit perfectly with my vision. Let\u2019s talk about candles for a minute, in my humble opinion, you cannot have a party without candles, and flowers for that matter \ud83d\ude42&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"1150\" src=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/7ED3AD94-96E1-4211-9C51-BA7B67BD1487-900x1150.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"542\" data-link=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/?attachment_id=542\" class=\"wp-image-542\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1133\" height=\"1150\" src=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/dec02-1133x1150.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"551\" data-link=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/?attachment_id=551\" class=\"wp-image-551\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"1150\" src=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/D5B1876D-0C8C-4675-8E2F-96B003AB4E51-1-900x1150.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"554\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/D5B1876D-0C8C-4675-8E2F-96B003AB4E51-1.jpeg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/chanukah-family-style\/d5b1876d-0c8c-4675-8e2f-96b003ab4e51-1\/\" class=\"wp-image-554\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Once I had the d\u00e9cor figured out, I got busy with the menu. I wanted to have fun with specialty foods that are also kid friendly, staying away from the typical \u201ckids menu\u201d of hot dogs and French fries.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are so many good cookbooks and resources out there, that it can be overwhelming to sift through them all. A trick that I started implementing, is that when I prepare for an event, I choose 1 or 2 cookbooks that I will use as my creative source and that\u2019s it. It really helps me streamline and not get buried under too many ideas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I chose to use Between Carpools new cookbook Dinner Done and a previous Chanukah issue of Fleishigs Magazine. As a special treat I reached out to Fleishigs magazine and asked if they wanted to treat my readers to something special and they were awesome! They gave me a code for 25% off newsstand price for subscriptions!click this link,  <a href=\" https:\/\/www.fleishigs.com\/subscribe\">https:\/\/www.fleishigs.com\/subscribe<\/a> and enter code CHAVI at checkout.I have been enjoying the magazine from the day they printed the first issue and highly recommend it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The menu was a hit, liked by adults and kids alike.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s what I did:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flavored water in mason jars (get creative, anything goes) I did 3 flavors 1) Strawberry, lime and mint 2) Mango, peach and basil 3) Mixed berries, lemon and basil. They were all delish. Great alternative to a sugary drink; its yummy and healthy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1033\" src=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/B6EFBA65-4B64-462C-A76F-54F3D69D2842.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"525\" class=\"wp-image-525\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/B6EFBA65-4B64-462C-A76F-54F3D69D2842.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/B6EFBA65-4B64-462C-A76F-54F3D69D2842-300x258.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/B6EFBA65-4B64-462C-A76F-54F3D69D2842-768x661.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1143\" height=\"1150\" src=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/C0764B84-BDA3-40EE-8313-AF0ACE74D062-1143x1150.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"526\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/C0764B84-BDA3-40EE-8313-AF0ACE74D062.jpeg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/?attachment_id=526\" class=\"wp-image-526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/C0764B84-BDA3-40EE-8313-AF0ACE74D062-1143x1150.jpeg 1143w, https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/C0764B84-BDA3-40EE-8313-AF0ACE74D062-150x150.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1143px) 100vw, 1143px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Tomato soup with dumplings from Dinner Done<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"1150\" src=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/0ED58293-FE43-46E0-93D1-7FFD7175332A-900x1150.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"527\" class=\"wp-image-527\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1150\" src=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/1155A218-227A-4E60-8E74-69B7E9417640-1200x1150.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"528\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/1155A218-227A-4E60-8E74-69B7E9417640.jpeg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/?attachment_id=528\" class=\"wp-image-528\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Take-out chicken Lo Mein from dinner done&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"1150\" src=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/CC612B23-5149-48A5-87B0-14C6525859E2-900x1150.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"530\" data-link=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/?attachment_id=530\" class=\"wp-image-530\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"1150\" src=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/CF78441C-4E74-49F4-A7DA-25F1F9D32FB2-1-900x1150.jpeg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"531\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/CF78441C-4E74-49F4-A7DA-25F1F9D32FB2-1.jpeg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/mud.webromancy.com\/?attachment_id=531\" class=\"wp-image-531\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sheet pan Latkes inspired from Fleishigs Magazine.
