Holiday season is here and let's be honest, Christmas dominates most of December. A lesser known, but still just as festive, holiday in December is the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah - where Jewish people celebrate for eight days and nights by lighting candles on a menorah. Instead of Christmas cookies, they make "suvganiot", which are probably the best donuts you've ever tasted (you won't regret going to your nearest Jewish bakery and trying one). Shayna Maydele and her dad post precious photos of her with the fresh challah (a Jewish style of bread), decked out in her fanciest "yamakah" (Jewish headwear worn to show respect to God and their religion).
But in the end, Shayna Maydele is just an NYC dog living her best kosher life. She dresses up in honor of Hanukkah to spread some peace and love, she throws in a little comedy about Judiasm (she's very meme-able), and has a few posts that will make you say "Only in New York City". If you want some more information about Hanukkah, we also have some very informative memes about it here. Oy vey! Happy Hanukkah!
Shabbat Shalom! Shayna Maydele is looking almost as good as the beautifully baked challah bread in front of her. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and we're not just talking about the challah! Who's hungry?
Well if Shayna Maydele isn't just the cutest little sous-chef we ever did see! Making challah is a fun activity, especially with a friend to help. A tasty treat for anyone, Jewish or not! It's a tradition every Friday night, but can definitely be enjoyed any day of the week.
