On that note, Chanukah has pretty much nothing about God. It's about miracles. Specifically, the Maccabees winning the battle against the Syrian Greeks and the light in the temple that was supposed to have enough oil to last for just one day lasting for eight.

I have always been curious... what are Dreidels for?

So they're dice.
Well IDK. I remember spending Hanukkah at this Jewish kid's house when I was like 8 and there were different outcomes depending on which side the dreidel landed on.

Exactly. Each side has a Hebrew letter which corresponds with what to do.
a) Nun means "nisht" or "nothing" [in Yiddish]. The player does nothing.
b) Gimmel means "gantz" or "everything" [in Yiddish]. The player gets everything in the pot.
c) Hey means "halb" or "half" [in Yiddish]. The player gets half of the pot. (If there is an odd number of pieces in the pot, the player takes half of the total plus one).
d) Shin (outside of Israel) means "shtel" or "put in" [in Yiddish]. Peh (in Israel) means "pay." The player adds a game piece to the pot.

Latkes are pretty rare in Pennsylvania. It's a shame, they're so good.

What's fun is when you see people who have only had the store-bought kind and then you give them real latkes. The real deal is such a huge step up, and that's saying something considering that the store-bought latkes are decent.
