Looks like it will be a Happy Hanukkah (which starts tomorrow at sundown) and a Merry Christmas after all!
Cheers!
*I'm a lightweight when it comes to alcohol, rarely being able to ingest more than a few sips of wine or beer or spirits without getting a killer headache. So I am always loathe to open a bottle of wine, and especially Champagne, for fear of wasting it. That's why I was delighted to come across these delightful mini bottles of bubbly -- Charles de Fere Jean Louis Brut -- while dining out last summer. More proof that good things often come in small packages. Now I can enjoy a sip of Champagne whenever I like, without the headache or the guilt.

What? They couldn't send you one bottle that would miraculously last 8 days?
I would drink all 8 in one sitting.
I'm picturing a menorah-shaped bottle holder with a spot for a regular-size bottle in the middle.
Eight crazy nights, indeed.
@Edward and @Dave S., you boys inspired me. Check out my handiwork!
For extending wine life, I highly recommend one of these:

Since I drink only one glass of wine with dinner, I use these things all the time to keep the wine from going bad. Extends the bottle up to a week (vs. 3-4 days). Probably helps with Champagne, too.
