CaFleureBon Celebrates Chanukah: Or Is It Hanukkah? Featuring Adam Sandler Song + SmellBent Hansel and Dreidel Draw

 

In 2011, the first night of Hanukkah starts at sundown on Tuesday, December 20, 2011 which is approximately 4:20 pm and one day off the shortest day of the year (aka the winter solstice).. The last night of Hannukah (or Chanukah)  2011 is sundown on Tuesday, December 27, 2011. If the Laplanders have 100 words for snow,  there are exactly eight spellings of Hanukkah, which seems fitting  because the festival of lights lasts eight daysa nd this year the 5th day is also Christmas Day.. truly  Chrismukkah.

Growing up there were so many songs for Christmas and just a few traditional BORING songs  for Hanukkah. It is ironic that the quinetessential Christmas songs "I am dreaming of a White Christmas" was written by Irving Berlin and Sammy Cahn wrote "Let it snow, let it snow". But  it took the son of a schmata (garment center) guy to write the first contemporary Hanukah song.

 

Hansel & Dreidel  (pronounce draydel); Mr. Leonesio at his quirky best as he mixes a potent concoction of honey, wheat absolute, sandalwood, and musk. Imagine your breakfast cereal is in mating season and you’ll have an idea of what this smells like. Very animalic and the wheat, honey and sandalwood add contrast to the musk. No gin and tonic-a or notes of marijaun-ica.

 

Thanks to Brent at  www.smellbent.com we have a 5ml  rollon of Hansel and Dreidel for a draw. To be eligible listen to the words of The Chanuka Song  and try to name as many  celebrities in the song as you can.  Ps  Harrison Ford is Half Jewish-so Adam you got that wrong. Sexiest celeb to light the menorah. DRAKE?  Draw ends December 22,2011 EST and we will notify the winner.

    I loved this song when it first came out. I knew Adam Sandler would become a star, but I didn’t realize how big he would become.
    Let’s give this a shot as I loved my mini of Hansel and Dreidel.

    James Caan
    Kirk Douglas
    Dinah Shore
    Henry Winkler
    Leanord Nimoy

    For the life of me I have no idea who owns the Seattle Supersonics, which actors were 3 stooges, or who represents Tom Cruise. I need google for that.
    Great drawing. thanks!

    There are two more versions of Adam Sandler’s hanukkah song –1996 and also in 2002 but I still love the SNL original Howard Schultz was the owner of the Seattle supersonics and passed on as did the team .The three stooges Moe Howard, Curly Howard and Larry Fine. Moe and Curly’s real names? Moses and Jerome Horowitz
