At least ya’ll get latkes and dradels and really neat candelabras, and Fiddler on the Roof.
We get grape juice and … fucking still Corn Flakes, believe it or not, and… well I guess Veggie Tales is actually pretty good, not exactly classic cinema though.
I have Jewish cousins lol, family gatherings growing up were basically mini culture shocks… how long will it be untill my dad makes an anti-semitic joke this time?!
Also latkes and dreidels are typically only for Chanukah. For Passover we do matzo, matzo ball soup, and a lot of things information parked since we can’t have grains. For Shavuot, we have lots of dairy products. For Rosh Hashanah, meat in sweet sauces. For Purim, hamantashen.
I did know the first part, did attend a Chanukah with them once. I have had matzo at various occasions, but haven’t even heard of the other dishes / choices for the other holidays…
Sadly, my uncle (in law), he passed away from cancer when I was a teen, and my own family was imploding in other ways, didn’t get the chance to experience much more.

We have grape juice too! You use it for blessings if you don’t want to use wine.
Did not know that.
