Chanukah is fast approaching and it provides so many opportunities for creating family traditions.
In my house, we decorate the light fixture, hang 20+ year old dreidel cutouts, lovingly created with Erica's playgroup, on the front door, hang my 1930s photo of my father and uncle playing dreidel in Germany and eat sizzling hot and crispy latkes (best fresh from the pan!).
It's also time to bring out all the assorted Chanukah kitsch, dreidel hand towels and of course - remind you all to send in your menorah photos for the third annual Guess Who's Coming to Dinner PIRSUM PROJECT!! Yes, photos are once again being solicited. Email your lit menorah photos to guesswhoscoming2dinner@gmail.com and let me know how/if you'd like to be credited. Share the beauty. Share the light!
And now, just in time for Chanukah, there is a NEW WAY to have some fun and win cash and prizes, with the Chanukah House Contest!

kinda looks like a gingerbread house. What's the source of this tradition again?

I hear where you're coming from and my thoughts did initially run along the same vein as well.
After some thought, I felt that since they are vanilla cookies, young children who may not know or care what other people's (non-religious) traditions are, may enjoy placing mezuzos on doors and menorahs in windows, much as they enjoy building shoebox succahs.
I would like to try the Matzo Ball & Soup Mix.
