It&#8217;s filled with great ideas, all tested by my trusty Review Panel.\u00a0 And you still have time to order even the mail ones&#8211;unlike all the others,<em> this<\/em> holiday is a full eight&#8230;days&#8230;long!\u00a0 So you can&#8217;t go wrong with giving a present on even the last night.

I wouldn&#8217;t have even brought it up again, but one of the most popular new shows, <em>Crazy Ex-Girlfriend<\/em>, did a bit on the many spellings of Chanukkah the other night, and it reminded me of what <em>I<\/em> wrote&#8230;<em>a full year before they did<\/em>! (Did any of you even notice that I spelled it many different ways in this column? I wanted to give you, my readers, your choice. And even SpellCheck approved of them all!)<\/p>\n<p>So, that&#8217;s it for this year. <strong>If this is one you celebrate, I wish you a very Happy Hanukkah.<\/strong> Or Chanukkah. Or Hannukah.
