Ruby was about to say “see you later” but she realised something. “I’m sorry, I don’t know your name?” she asked. He yelled that his name was Volf, and she made her way to her grandma’s house. As Ruby got to the party, she was wondering if Volf would show up. However just as she rang the doorbell, he came hurling out of the forest. “Hi Ruby!” he said happily. They went in, and a warm glow filled them. That night, gelt was devoured, dreidels were spun, the gingerbread house was absolutely ruined by Volf’s little brother, Wolfie, and everyone had a great time. And everyone lived happily ever after.
THE END
Gingerbread Chanukah gelt If the purpose of modern gelt is to remind us of a custom from a bygone age, why does it have to be made from chocolate? Hailing from Northern Europe and particularly popular in Scandinavia, gingerbread biscuits or gingersnaps are widely enjoyed. They are a favourite treat in the winter months as their rich spiciness is deliciously warming. This recipe makes 48 gingerbread Chanukah gelt biscuits.
