HOLIDAY RECIPES -- Hannukah/Chanukah

[Guest guest]

This is how we did the Latkas ( potato pancakes) last year and they

were the best ever. Mom and I combined forces on this one. The applesauce

recipe was from Bon Apetit last year. It was a perfect accompaniment.

It is definitely worth repeating.
