Hanukkah Gifts In Mamaroneck

NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. -- With eight days and nights of Hanukkah, there's not the same crazed rush as there is for Christmas to find all the right gifts for that one day. But with the Festival of Lights starting Tuesday night Dec. 16, it is time to start thinking beyond the gelt (or gift card). Here, some ideas from local vendors folks will remember long after the candle wax has melted.
