Chanukah is celebrated by the Jewish religion.
Chanukah, and all other Jewish holidays go by the Jewish calendar months. Chanukah takes place on the 25th of the month of Kislev, which coincides with our months of November or December. The holiday celebrates the re-dedication of the Temple, after it was destroyed by the Syrian-Greeks in the 2nd century BCE. That event occurred in the month of Kislev, which is why the holiday is celebrated when it is today.
No decorations are required during Chanukah.
Chanukah is a holiday. It doesn't eat.
