The following is a “script” for one of Matt’s segments:

Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting our friends and neighbors in the food-service industry!

Especially with the pandemic still raging, there is no better place to be this holiday season than home with a good book and yummy homemade foods.

In that spirit (and that of Chanukah) the food-minded folks at Manischewitz have partnered with the Jewish book promoters at PJ Library to create new holiday tradition called the Chanukah House Cookie Kit.

Taking a tip from its gingerbread neighbors, this kosher creation offers families of all persuasions a chance to build a holiday house that they can design, decorate and then devour. Each kit comes with cookies, icing, and even a candy menorah to put in the window for all to see (that is, until somebody eats it!). Each kit will also offer info about PJ Library (which gives nearly 250,000 books a year to children across the U.S. and Canada) and, for each kit purchased, PJ Library will donate a book to children who do may have one, let alone eight.

We know that you may not be able to visit the homes of those you love this year, but at least you can send them a home that they can enjoy creating almost as much as the one you have created with them!
