Well, it's Channukah Antactica style. First was the paper menorah endeavor. We got Kris from IT to draw the penguins for us. Marci and I traced them on the x-ray view thing (did I mention this project took place in the xray room of the medical center? I mean, where else does one create menorahs?). Then we begged and pleaded to have someone with any sort of talent paint the birds. Finally, Dr. Don coordinated with the UT guys to hang them in the galley.
Then Marci and I had the town Channukah Party at Hut 10. We had latkas made from dehydrated potatoes. There were penguin cookies, smoked salmon, and a challah, compliments of Nick the Baker. Dr. Don read the story of Channukah. We had Channukah trivia. The Carp shop (carpenters for off-the-ice folks) made dreidles for us. We had balloon hats and toxic blow up stuff.
You know it's a great party when military guys you don't even know are telling you the next day how great the party was. Go Jews!
