I think custom is that they light one candle every day?

If you ever want to get a little bit of the Chanukah spirit try making some potato latkes (Jewish style potato pancakes) served with apple sauce and sour cream on the side. They're a staple of Chanukah celebrations. I can promise you some were on the buffet mentioned in the original post.

Yes. One additional candle is lit each night until the candelabra is full. So the photos should be from night #7
