Batya’s Gourmet this will be selling hot overnight cholent and kugel at Khal Yeraim between 9:30pm and 11pm. No other locations this week. Buy cholent for Shabbos and save your wife the hassle on these short Fridays.
Batya’s dips are available at Ungers or Boris or by calling 2163151900 for standing orders or for local pickup at Khal Yeraim or at the Jewish learning connection Thursday nights.
Amazon has a great deal on the Waring WT90B 400-Watt Stainless-Steel Warming Tray. It usually goes for $60 or more but is now priced at $46! It gets excellent reviews and might be really good for Shabbos as it is 16.5″ long as opposed to the more typical 12″ size. It is adjustable so you may have to ask your Rav about covering the knob but being adjustable it might be more useful than the more heimish made in Israel platas that always seem too hot and scorch the food. Amazon deals change fast so price is not guaranteed.
There will be no Bnos this Shabbos (Chanukah) AND next Shabbos due to the upcoming Bnos leaders’ convention.

We provide the following p’sakim of HaRav Shmuel Kamenetsky, Shlita, as excerpted from the Sefer Koveitz Halachos by Rabbi Doniel Kleinman, Shlita. As with all Halacha, one should ask his own Rav or Posek for a definitive ruling in his particular case or situation:
1. Although one may not use a combination of oil and candles for his Neiros, one may use different oils on any given night, because they are considered similar enough to each other.
2. One need not use the candle that was used as the candle to light the Neiros Chanukah as his Shamash.
3. Even if the glass cups which are inserted into a Menorah cannot stand on their own because of the narrow piece of glass that fits snugly into the Menorah, one can consider the cup to still be a Kli–for it is specifically manufactured to be used in this way.

This year, in a most unusual occurrence, the first day of Chanukah coincides with Thanksgiving. This has not happened since 1861, or at least not since Thanksgiving was declared a federal holiday by President Abraham Lincoln in 1863, according to The Associated Press.
Due to the enthusiastic response to last night’s inspiring video presentation there will be another showing of “Bringing the Light of Chanukah into Our Homes”, featuring Rabbanit Yemima Mizrachi from Jerusalem. Tues. Nov. 26th @8 p.m. Location to be announced. For location and other information call Sydney @650-2701.

Question #1: My sister invited our family for Shabbos Chanukah, and we will be sleeping at her neighbor’s house. Where do we set up the menorahs, particularly since I do not even know the neighbor?
Question #2: My husband has a late meeting at work tonight and will not be home until very late. What should we do about kindling Chanukah lights?
Question #3: I will be attending a wedding during Chanukah that requires me to leave my house well before lighting time, and I will not return until very late. Can I kindle at the wedding, just like the lighting that takes place in shul?
Question #4: I will be spending part of Chanukah in a hotel. Where should I kindle my menorah?
