Growing up, our family always celebrated St. Nicholas Day (December 6th) we’d leave our shoes by the door the night of the 5th and wake up with candy and small gifts. A tradition that I’ve carried into my own family
he cooked the probably free food anyway, no doubt Hello Fresh but he doesn’t mention company. He wants cash in exchange. I’m pretty much of a cultural Jew, not a religious one at all. I was raised reformed and stopped going to services after my confirmation (8th grade). My son got Bar Mitzvahed and then my kids stopped going to temple after that obligation was done. I am proud to be Jewish though even though I’m not observing. I was brought up among many Jewish kids. A very suburban upbringing. I would not want to be anything else than what I am. I don’t know Hebrew either, and have no desire to go to Israel. My Hanukkah presents were always given at Christmas…ha!I would love to give you recommended reading on Judaism, but the fact is, I didn't learn this from a book. But I learned about Judaism from my dad, he was born and raised an Orthodox Jew, and when he married my mom also Jewish, they decided after my older Brother's Briss (Jewish male circumcision ceremony), they were traumatized and we all became Reform Judaism. My younger brother had his circumcision at the hospital. All three of us don't know how to speak Hebrew and yet we know & memorized the prayers needed for ceremonies, because our dad made us.
As for Hanukkah, it's a celebration for 8 days, you light the lights at night and you could do anything during the day, work or go to school. Even though it's the festival of lights it's not an equivalent to Christmas. Some Jews give presents some don't. Obviously it's for the kids, to keep them involved. It's actually not part of the ceremony. It's just a nice tradition that most parents do to make their kids happy. My dad let me pick out anything I wanted for Hanukkah. So I'd say I have happy memories of it.
They showed a box from Every Plate on the island a few vlogs back. Lauren used to do those kind of often. Kind of makes you wonder what happened because those are pretty simple to throw together. They belong to Hello Fresh.Asa’s reply above - what stood out was a sponsored video didn’t happen.
I was trying to find that tweet someone posted about the holidays and a dollar store being closed or being opened? I don’t know why.
Asa could be under weather but they more likely had zero bookings to invest time in it. Otherwise anyone could have played Santa, or they could have hired one. Sherry would have made a fetching Santa.
Translation. No one signed up to come to SelfieWrld so the lie is Santa was sick! Geez, you can't even trust Santa anymore.
Thanks, Melissa, that's more than I knew and I'm ashamed about it but I'll do some research on the Google's.I would love to give you recommended reading on Judaism, but the fact is, I didn't learn this from a book.

*We can tell that you are reading here. Ab comes home from school, he makes her put away her stuff, of course she's complaining about it. Snack time happens, she picks cookies and other sugary snacks on the iPad. ASSa then finds the crackers button and then he hits Cheez-Its. Puts it in a bowl, and then he puts a cut up banana inside. He's basically saying, hey look I can give her some snacks that are actually nutritious and look there's a piece of fruit.
Do you also put your shoes outside the door for St. Nick to fill with goodies or coal depending on your behavior? We lived in Germany for 3 years and learned to do this. My dad was military and the only German I remember is dummkopf (dum head). Neighbor German kids taught us this little gem.
I dont believe for a second he went to Dunkin and did not get her a donut... it would be a supreme meltdown..she was already half meltdown ing in the car when they were leaving. Did he film the part where he went to dunkin and only got coffee? If it had worked out 100% it would be in the VLOG. Also ...all the stores they went in and out..how many treats did he give her to do that?
What the hell did I just watch? Why the hell did I watch it? Who the hell cares?
That had to be the worst vlog ever. Just snippets of pointless, inane rubbish. Who cares about him getting distilled water? Why show Abbie just scrolling thru her device for no good reason?
And BTW I have been remembering to get the oil changed, lol.
Perfectly said. You expounded on what I was saying or trying to say. Lol. It reminds me of a psychopath that has to study and fake real human emotion to try and pass for "normal".
Priscilla doesn't even know why there are farm animals at the Nativity. That witch is not Catholic, nor is she any other kind of Christian. They once claimed they don't go to church because they can't find one that would include Abbie...but we all know it's because their lazy fat asses don't actually care.
I am a pagan and I know about the Nativity lol
My husband says the same thing.
I remember dummkopf too!
They're stoners.
