Hanukkah questions for the jewish ladies

Sorry - I'm in the Hanukkah spirit...

what kind of menorah do you have (post pics!!!)?

How many do you light?

Also off topic- I wanted to mention I read a great mag. over the weekend that I picked up at the airport...it was called Jewish Living and it's new. It was a really cute magazine so I thought I would mention it to my fellow MOT's.

For me...
I bought a new Menorah this year. It's an antique silver menorah from Israel - I am esp. fond of it for this reason.

I also light a "fun" colorful menorah for my daughter which is a bunch of little kids holding the candles.

Ohhhhhhhhhh that's a REALLY good idea about the kids menorah!! I think I might just have to start a hunt for one for Alex!

I have 5 menorahs, but I only use two of them. Those two I inherited from my grandparents when they passed - I alternate - one year I'll use one, the next I'll use the other.

We also have one that DH had from before we met (probably from his first wife, that dingbat ) and two others that were wedding gifts (now why would you give NON-RELIGIOUS jews a menorah as their wedding gift????)

I light two.

Electric for the window.

Candles for the inside.
