Celebrate the once-in-more-than-a-lifetime hybrid holiday with this wonderful mash-up collection of recipes, cartoons, trivia, history and activities for each of the eight days! Happy Thanksgivukkah provides everything you need to get you into the holiday spirit, including recipes by award-winning chefs such as John Besh, John Currence and Maida Heatter, and hilarious cartoons from Garfield, Foxtrot and others. Who knows? You might even start a new family tradition. Thanks to the vagaries of the Jewish (lunar) calendar and the Gregorian (sun) calendar, in 2013 the first day of Hanukkah falls on Thanksgiving Day — an event that won’t happen again for almost 80,000 years! Why not combine the two holidays into one joyous feast? Happy Thanksgivukkah is the perfect guide to the new hybrid celebration, with double the holiday fun for everyone.
