    The origins of our Nights To Hanukkah event this year are less than noble. It was not yet even Halloween and I had gotten a promo email in my inbox for &#; Nights to Christmas.&#; To say I was less than thrilled to see the unwritten societal agreement not to shove Christmas down everyone&#;s throats until after Thanksgiving broken, is an understatement. However, the results of my organizing out of spite were pretty great.

    We&#;ve been able to feature a ton of new authors and books on our nightly countdown posts on social media. Interaction from readers has been at an all time high. Plus &#; we found a ton of books! Such a good time was had by all that we&#;ve decided to make it an annual event in some form or another.

    Now that Hanukkah is upon us, it&#;s time to tally up how many of the you&#;ve read&#;but also to tell us which ones you&#;re planning to read over the holiday. Drop your counts in the comments and HAPPY HANUKKAH EVERYONE.

    Serves 8 to 10

    Freshly marinated artichokes hearts are much more flavorful than the store-bought varieties. The process is rewarding and not too difficult.

    When shopping for artichokes, look for ones with bracts that are tightly closed or only slightly open. Artichokes should be firm and fresh looking, with no brown or soft spots. They should also feel heavy. If the underside of an artichoke stem has small holes, do not buy it, as it may have worm damage. Squeeze it—if it sounds squeaky, it is okay. To store, place dry artichokes in a plastic bag and refrigerate for no more than 5 days.

    Ingredients:

    ¼ cup lemon juice concentrate mixed with 4 cups water for acidulated water
    6 fresh artichokes
    2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
    1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (
