Summary: "Come on, Booster, where's your holiday spirit?" And when Rip Hunter was the one asking, that became a very good question.
Notes: Happy holidays, Boostlethon-ers! And if you don't subscribe to the "Ted Kord is a lapsed Jew" theory, well... I hope you like the fic anyway?

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaah so adorable! I love that Rip was all excited about it and Rani being Rani and friggin' hash browns and more Rip being adorable and!

Thank you dearly, I love this so!

Really great family interaction here. I love the last line, with Rip figuring out what's going on, and all the layers of who learnt what from whom. Sad but heartwarming. Great fic.

Thank you! I really enjoyed making the inheritance of traditions more complex than it appeared at first glance, so it's great to hear you liked that.

That was sweet and a little sad, like being homesick. Very, very nice job. I love the solution to the latke recipe.

Homesick is a very appropriate word for it, I think. Wishing you could be somewhere else with someone else, but doing things that remind yourself of that person and place easing the ache a little. Well, that's what I was going for, in any case, so your word choice made me smile. Thank you for the comment!

;o; *hugs them all*

I especially like Rip getting the punchline, so to speak. Well done!

...and now I'm craving latkes...

Thanks! I can't quite take credit for Rip getting the last word - idiosyn's prompt asked for it, or something like it - but it is one of my favorite parts of the fic.

And I know what you mean! Every time I reread the fic I get hungry.
