Free Latkes Tee Give-Away

Photo_111209_001

It’s time for a good old holiday give-away! I’m giving away 3 “Got Latkes” t-shirts to 3 lucky and deserving souls. (Well, everyone’s deserving but some are luckier than others.)

The shirts are soft vintage navy from Southern California-based Article1 and you can opt to have yours wrapped up all swell like these babies to the left.

So what do you have to do? If you are not yet on the Rotem Gear mailing list, sign up here.  Don’t worry about spam — my newsletters are not all that frequent! And of course I’ll never share your address or coordinates with anyone.

Then, come one back here and add a your own limerick about anything vaguely related to Chanuka in the comments. It’s meant to be fun so have fun and everyon is welcome to join in!  Deadline is December 3! (Sizes are S-M-L-XL and some kids’ sizes are available too.)

I’ll start off the limericks:

There once was a gal with a grater
Compelled to grate ev-er-y ‘tater
She’d grate and she’d shred
“She’s not right in the head!”
Said the folks who would try to dissuade her.

There once was a curious maidel
Who kept trying to spin a knaidel
Alas, it would flop
With an audible “plop!”
Until someone suggested a dreidel.

Now it’s your turn!

  • there once was a boy named judah
    who wouldn’t bow to a statue-a.
    he started a war
    he fought like a boar
    and that’s how chanukah got to ya!

  • Have you seen that king, Antiochus?
    He wanted to punish and yoke us!
    Mattathias said: “NO!”
    Judah shouted: “Let’s Go!”
    Now Al Hanisim is our focus!

    A gal got a lesson well-learnt
    and all of her latkes got burnt:
    on the stove they did fry,
    while she played with some guy,
    for paying attention she weren’t

  • There once was a Korean Jewess
    Adopted to live in Saint Louis
    She made Chanukah latkas
    While wearing her gotkas
    But they might not be done till Shavous

  • [...] Now I need to get a hold of some and try them myself! Anyone have a simple recipe I could try?If you’re looking for more holiday fun, stop by Jean’s blog and try your hand at a chance to win a Got latkes tee! [...]

  • A man with a fine felt fedora/leaned over his hanukkah menorah/ when he leaned down to light it/ his hat it ignited/ and now it looks like a pakora

    These are wonderful! Keep them coming!

    Just for fun, I’m adding the 2 I wrote for Aliza Hausman, also known as the Jewminicana (http://www.alizahausman.net/2009/11/thanksgiving-is-over-its-time-for.html):

    Ms. Jewminicana lady said
    “It’s the annual latkes I dread.
    “The point is the oil,
    “Which potatoes just spoil
    “I’ll be frying my plantains instead!”

    Then I found out that she does indeed like latkes, so I had to adjust it:

    Ms. Jewminicana lady said
    “Something new for the Hanukkah spread!
    “Since oil is what matters,
    “Who cares what makes spatters?
    “I’ll be frying my plantains instead!”

    Think I’m kidding? Check out her post with a link to a recipe for plantain latkes!

  • There once was a yiddishe hammer
    Who stood up to tempting Greek manna
    I am who I am
    And that’s a One God Man
    So take back your pagan propaganda

  • jrotem

    “I am who I am” — apparently Popeye was there too! ;) LOL, thanks for joining in!

  • Making jelly doughnuts is fun,
    and also puddings with rum.
    Latkes are nice,
    and rugelach with spice-
    It’s the time of year for getting fat and having fun!

    If you don’t
    like war,it’s a story to ignore.
    A minor chag,
    for which we go whole hog.
    You understand, cantcha. That it’s compensation for Santa.
    We shower our kids with gelt and toys, um,
    lest our guilt and their envy make them go to the goyim.

  • jrotem

    It’s about livin,not dyin
    temple purifyin, sanctifying zion,
    not gift buyin, no reindeers flyin
    so getcha latkes fryin,
    Its not simchat torah
    Light up the menorah, kenahora
    Sing al hanisim, props to the Macabim
    Nes gadol haya po
    Chanukah’s in the house, yo

    Well, I had to try!

  • Rotem,
    You have found your calling! Rapping queen!
