Jewish Christmas
Dec. 25th, 2025 09:05 pmThe classic Jewish Christmas is a movie and Chinese food. Because my friend, Cindy, is out of town and wants to see the same movie I want to see (Song Sung Blue), the movie got postponed to Sunday. But my chavurah did an early dinner at a Chinese restaurant. I hadn’t been to Hot Peppercorn in Springfield before. It turned out to be an easier drive than I’d expected it to be - pretty much right off the Beltway.
The food was good. In particular, the vegetarian hot and sour soup was excellent. Their garlic sauce (which you can get with pretty much any protein) was also good, but not as good as that as some other places I’d been to.
More importantly, the company was good and the conversation was lively. And the price was pretty reasonable.
I passed on the dessert reception at one person’s house, because I had too much to do at home. I did manage to get almost all of my laundry (which I’d done earlier in the day) put away. But I still have too much to do.
