I don't know about you but I've always associated white or cream with purity and festiveness, it's probably a matter of culture and tradition.
So now that these holidays are over and the next holiday, Passover will be in April (… I know Hanukkah is in December, Tu Bishvat in Jan and Purim in March. But between us, a holiday without a significant work break doesn't really count in my eyes ;-))
So what do we do with all this white we bought ?!
