Some of the first card ideas

Rachel: I'm glad you didn't think the idea silly. I LOVE the image of a snow man made from Matzoh Balls. When I was a kid, we always had a Chanukah bush. It was a stumpy little thing made of silver plastic... but it fit in our smallish 2 bedroom New York apartment and didn't make a mess with pine needles.. my mother wouldn't have liked Every year, my Uncle Albert would call me on the phone in his role as the "Chanukah Man." I was always so excited to get that phone call. His heavy German accent didn't really fool me, but I always played along. Here are some more visuals: - A close-up of a dreidel with icons of Christmas... tree, snowman, printed on the sides, rather than Hebrew letters. - A menorah with christmas tree shaped candles. - A traditional looking xmas tree with a Star of David on top. - A group of people caroling outside a house on a snowy evening, dressed in scarves and holiday attire, but all wearing Yarmulkes. - A Christmas tree with presents below all wrapped in Blue and Gold Chanukah wrapping paper. - A reindeer walking thought a silent snowy field... with 8 lit candles in this antlers. - Santa Claus with curly white payes instead of a beard. - Challah looking like a fruitcake.. cherries, nuts, etc. - A closeup of a bottle of Eggnog with a label that says it's Kosher. -A menorah with candy canes instead of candles. - Yenta Claus -A jewish looking older woman on the roof climbing into the chimney. - Fiddler on the Roof - Santa Claus with a fiddle dancing around on a snowy rooftop looking like Zero Mostel in the original film/play. I'm sure we could think of dozens more. ;-) Could it be a children's book too? Ron
