Guests are arriving soon, and the list of chores is long. I’m not sure when I’ll have a moment to myself for a while. In case, I disappear for too long, may you all have a happy holiday and vacation. May you have warm times with friends and family. Or super tasty Chinese food and empty theaters. Whatever works for you. 
Happy Holidays

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays as applicable.
I wonder if the not-Chinese Asian restaurants are open along with the Chinese ones? I’m never around to check.

My neighborhood is about 15% Asian and 40% Jewish, so I suppose I would have sufficient cases to form come kind of conclusion if I were willing to make some calls.

Have a great celebration. I hope you get a chance to snap some pictures of food (iPhones work great, and, actually, better than cameras a lot of the time). I learned of the tradition of the fishes from your blog, and I find it fabulous.
We are plotting out whether Chinese food and a movie will be in our Christmas celebration or if we’ll just enjoy a home cooked meal.
We have friends who are attending a Fiddler on the Roof sing along + Chinese buffet for Christmas.
