Latke Lady


This yellow sticky is a funny little piece of art. Let me explain. I found this on our refrigerator this morning. It's been up there for a while, apparently. Here's the evolution. First, my brother drew this woman; it's his rendering of his girlfriend's aunt. My mom then wrote latkes at the top of the sticky.

I found it like this, and thought it was a "latke lady" rather than 2 separate pieces that happened to be on the same sticky. I thought it was a funny coincidence.

(If you don't know what a latke is, or you don't get how I arrived at my conclusion: a latke is a "potato pancake" that Jews eat during Chanukah. It's also similar to the hash brown that you can get at McDonalds. If one eats a lot of these, one looks like this.)
