Hanukkah Celebration & Gift Planner

Plan all eight nights of Hanukkah in one calm spreadsheet: which gift goes to whom on which night, the candles for each evening, and your latke party guests, sign-up and shopping amounts. WHAT YOU GET • Settings where you type the year and the first night of Hanukkah; all eight nights date themselves from it • Eight Nights tab with each evening's date, candles to light (night one is one candle plus the shamash), an optional theme, and the gifts given that night • Gift List for up to 250 gifts: who it's for, which night, status (Idea, Ordered, Bought, Wrapped, Given), planned and actual cost, store and delivery date • A flag when an ordered gift arrives after its night, and a reminder when an idea's night is getting close • People list with an optional amount per person, plus gifts, planned, spent, which nights and all-wrapped columns • Latke party guest list for up to 120 guests or households with RSVPs, adults, kids and dietary notes • Who-brings-what sign-up that flags dishes still needing someone and anyone who can't come • Latke quantity calculator: potatoes, onions, eggs, oil, applesauce, sour cream, sufganiyot, gelt, dreidels and candle boxes from your headcount • A short party timeline counted back from your start time • Dashboard with days to the first candle, gifts ready, tonight's night and a needs-attention list HOW IT WORKS 1.
