Holiday-Birthday conundrum...

Our cleaning lady's birthday is Dec. 26th. Tamar's birthday frequently aligns with Hannukah, as does my brother, Barak.

The question: what is the social responsibility to give 2 gifts? Can you actually give "one larger gift" to cover both?

Plus, what is the statute of limitations on days separating hoildays?

Let's say you're celebrating X-mas and your b-day is Jan 1? What about Dec. 20th? Where's the line?

How many days before/after Hannukah make it "close enough?"

Tough questions for those of us on the gift-giving side. Tougher for those who are victimized by inopportune birthdates.
