A blend of religious traditions
OREM, Utah A nine-branched Hanukkah menorah is in the front window. The center candle, the shamash, and the candle farthest to the right are lighted. A mazooza (packet containing a portion of the scriptures) is nailed to the door post of the front entrance of the house. At the entry is a Christmas tree that includes an ornament of the Star of David that a child made out of Popsicle sticks.
In the kitchen, Elissa Molling combines grated potatoes with eggs, spices and other ingredients. Behind Elissa, four decorative plates hang on the wall: a set that features scenes of the Levant and atop, a rendition of the Salt Lake LDS Temple. Adjacent to the wall plates is a framed print, "The Living Christ The Testimony of the Apostles."
