Oy Chanukah 5
Tonight I took my team out for a nice holiday dinner. We're a small department, only the four of us including myself. We went to a really nice restaurant in Hoboken (shut up) called The Brass Rail and ate and drank heartily. In honor of eating and drinking heartily, tonight's music will feature two songs about that very subject.
The first song, A Sudenyu (A feast), is about what the Jews will do after the Messiah comes. We're going to have a big feast and eat Leviathan. Moses will read the Torah, King Solomon will speak words of wisdom, King David will play music, and Miriam the prophetess (Moses' sister) will dance. The second song, Der Bekher (The goblet), is about drinking wine. L'chaim!

I'm really enjoying these Chanukah posts, Lesley, keep 'em up! Hey, there are a lot of nice restaurants in Hoboken. There are even a few that don't pay homage to Sinatra. :)
