( open ) First Night of Hanukkah

[signedlefthanded]

Who: Violet, everyone
What: HANUKKAH
When: Night of the 8th
Where: Violet's shop
Rating: PG?

[The shop floor has been cleared, tables set. A hanukiah stands in the middle of the table. At sundown, a blessing is read. Afterwards, Violet starts taking off the lids to the dishes. There are a ton of latkes as well as other fried breads and Jewish pastries. Of course there is roasts and fish, and Violet tried her hand at several different dishes.]

ooc: so I am not Jewish and just spent a long time reading about Hanukkah. If I screwed something up, I am so sorry.

Also feel free to assume there are nutcrackers around. Treat this like a party post.

[She smiles gently, seeing how genuine he was.]

I would like that. A lot. But just to let you know, a Dr. House may or may not be interrogating you. We've been close here.

[a smile of his own finally begins to blossom - cautiously, as he still can't quite believe this is happening]

I still can't quite believe this is happening. But whoever your friend is, I would be more than happy to answer his questions.

[She took his hand then, glad he was this happy. What she knows of his life, he deserved it.]

He's a good man. I just wanted to warn you.

Warning me of a good man seems a bit of a spoonerism. [he smiles] But I appreciate it, nevertheless. ... Thank you, Violet.

[the smile seems to say "for everything".]

He's a little... standoffish. [Which is the polite way of saying he's grumpy and sometimes mean.]

I am glad to see you smiling.
