Shalom:
There is a new journal I found and love. It is called She Writes. You Write. It is a delightful journal where the author daily ask a question, shares her thoughts on the subject and then invites the reader to add theirs. This is today:
So, taking a page from this journal I am playing along, but with a twist: you are preparing for the Holidays, and you could invite anyone you wish, living or dead, who would you invite?
First, I would need a bigger house!
Second I would chose to do this during Hanuakkah, which is in about three weeks.
I would invite my ancestors; made up of slave traders, slave owners and slaves, North and West Africans, Germans, Englishmen, Hebrews, Tapestry Makers, Sheep Herders, Missionaries and Rabbis so I could truly learn who I am and where I come from.
The world leaders. For one night, the leaders of our world have to sit together and enjoy Potato Pancakes, Salmon Cakes, CheeseCake (new york of course) and kosher wine, watching a black wife kinlde the holiday lights and her white husband bless the challah and the wine and tell the Hanuakkah story. One night the world will know world peace.
C.S.Lewis, love Narnia and have a ton of questions. Our greatest who taught his daughters Torah, Rashi
And last but never least, my J-Land friends. I finally get to see all of you face to face.
Who would you inivte?

Gee, I am impressed with your answer. When I first read the question a few people popped into my mind but none of them were on the calibur of your guest list.
Elvis.
A few other people popped into my head but they aren't worth the mention after your answer. ;)
Looking forward to the invitation..............LOL Cute idea.
Hugs, Rose
I like that journal too! she comes up with good questions to ask :)
I love who you would invite and the reasons :)
I think I'd enjoy having dinner with you and Mark (and your mashed potatoes:)
betty
What a dinner that woud be I think I will have to think hard about who to invite. Love Joan
Oh, Laini! I don't think I want to invite anybody, I think I just want to come to your house, LOL! Can I come? Let me think if there is anybody else I want to add, perhaps from my side of the family, or somebody I have always wanted to meet. Then I could just bring them along to your house if you don't mind! Hmmmmm.... I can't think of anyone else. If I do I will let you know, LOL. And I think I will put She Writes on my blogroll. Not that I need another blog, LOL, but I remember seeing it once and I have to put it on. I need to put you on too!
