I usually don't include kitsch from religions outside the broad spectrum of Christianity. However, this is an exception because of the circumstance in which I found it.

I was shopping in Strosniders Hardware, looking for a small artificial Christmas tree. From a distance, I saw a row of these peppermills, not knowing what they were. My first thought was, "Bunny ears? They've got the Easter stuff out already?"

Not only does this thing grind pepper corns, but the menorah is inside a snow globe.

For the record, they have a Christmas version, too.
