The time of Hanukkah & Christmas has come!
Two holy days of light and happiness and giving.
For Jews it's time to remember miracles and triumphs, and for christians it is time to give and receive gifts and bond with one's family.
In jewish tradition, from my own experience, every holiday is an excuse to eat - no matter if it's the traditional dishes or just good food. A lot of people gain extra padding during the holidays and Hannukah is even more so with all the fried goodness it holds :)
Winter amplifies this by pushing you towards hot dishes to keep your insides warm. It also makes you happy and satisfied, so In that respect, it's a good thing.
Back to the main theme - Holidays and especially these two - are a good time to bond with other people - whether it's your significant other, your sister, brother, parents, or simply friends.
To share the warmth, to share the happiness, to be together.
