A PLACE TO CALL HOME

(Re: News, Issue 490)

In last week’s issue, you reported on the emergency meeting among school administrators to discuss the financial crisis schools are facing. According to your report, the lack of resources was partially attributed to parents failing to meet their tuition obligations.

I would like to suggest a reason for this: the increase in housing costs over the past few years here in Rockland County, especially in the Monsey and Spring Valley areas. People are desperate for housing, and builders and developers capitalize on that need and rake in enormous profits.

You could argue that that’s how the economy works, and if you can’t afford to buy here, move somewhere else. But chassidishe women don’t drive, so they need to live near shopping, shuls and schools (unless they can afford to pay $35 each way anytime they need to go somewhere).

When parents have to choose between housing or tuition, housing will always win. Root-cause analysis is key to problem solving. As long as the housing crisis exists, people will continue to struggle to pay their tuition bills.

FOOD FIGHT

(Re: POV, Issue 489)

I enjoyed reading the POV on mishloach manos. The responses strengthened my belief that whatever you do, some people will like it and some people won’t. It’s impossible to please everyone, so do what works for you.

WHAT GOES AROUND

(Re: Give in Order to Get, Issue 488)

I also had an experience where Hashem “paid me back” for a chesed. A few years ago, my son’s friend, a chasan from Eretz Yisroel, was here in the States for a few months to collect for his wedding. He sometimes ate with us on Shabbos, and we tried to help him as much as possible.

As his wedding date approached, the chasan had to go back to Eretz Yisroel, but he had some clothing and things that didn’t have room in his suitcase. We told him to leave it with us and we’d find a way to send it to him. We thought we’d manage to find someone traveling to Eretz Yisroel who could take the items, but we didn’t, so in the end, we paid to have it shipped to him.

At the time, we would purchase vitamins at a local store where you were entered into a raffle for every purchase. A week after we shipped the chasan’s items to Eretz Yisroel, we won the raffle for the exact amount of money we paid for shipping.

SCHOOL RULES

(Re: Your Say, Mother Knows Best, Issue 487)

To the frustrated mother of a high school girl: Do you think that the school hires a full-time secretary just to make your life complicated? The school’s attendance rules were obviously created out of necessity, so that students less conscientious than your daughters will not create an environment of hefkerus and lack of accountability. Your daughters definitely benefit by learning in an organized school environment with structure and accountability.

P.B.

Also, please consider what message your criticism and disrespect toward the school gives your daughters.

Another Mother of High School Girls

YOUR SAY

SECOND LANGUAGE

I have a novel idea that I believe would be productive and worthwhile: Our high schools should offer classes in Spanish. So many of us interact with Spanish speakers daily, in our homes and at local businesses, or even employ Spanish speakers in various roles. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could communicate more effectively?

ANTI-TIP BRACK ETS SAVE LIVES

Save a lot agmas nefesh with two screws and sixty seconds.

Every gas range comes with an antitip bracket. The purpose of this bracket is to anchor the range to the wall so that it cannot tip over. Most people do not install the anti-tip bracket; they just position the range in place and can’t imagine that it would ever tip over. But if a child opens the oven door and sits onto it, the entire range can tip, and all of the hot pots on the stovetop can potentially spill on the child, chalilah.

It might sound unlikely to you, but unfortunately, there are families that spend months in the hospital because of the burns and skin grafts needed following this kind of accident.

The anti-tip bracket is located in the back of the range and keeps the range from tilting. Please find your antitip bracket that comes in the range instructions package and install it. It only takes a minute and can save you a lifetime of pain.

Can’t find the bracket? Call the range’s manufacturer, give them your model number, and for $10, they will

send you a new one. The bracket installation instructions will be included. Install it tonight! A Concerned Reader

Dear driver of a black Hyundai Accent,

You may not realize it, but on March 5, when you decided to pass a line of six cars in order to make a right on red at the intersection of College Road and Route 59, you sideswiped and damaged my car. The time was 12:19 p.m. I’m assuming you didn’t realize that this happened, and that’s why you ignored my honk. If this is you, please text me at 845-202-2992.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you,

GROWING SURVEY UPDATE

Over the last few years, we at L’hisgadal have helped many families get approved by their insurance for growth hormone treatment.

Since there is a big demand for natural solutions, we have created a survey to gather information. Please help others by participating in the one-time survey about any positive or negative experiences you may have had with Super Patch, cranial therapy, kinesiology, reflexology, Argi-plus, stretching exercises, hot showers, muscle testing, gem stones, and natural vitamins, including non-medical side effects.

You can access the survey at 201844-8424. Please do not leave your name. We will not save your number. Please be aware that we need at least 300 respondents in order to share statistics with Klal Yisroel; if everyone assumes that others will call, we’ll be left without information.

In addition, we are looking for the contact info of someone who left a message about recommending treatments based on pictures of the patient’s eye.

Thank you,

WHAT NONFOOD ITEM DO YOU LIKE TO STOCK UP ON BEFORE PESACH?

IN GENERAL, WHERE DO YOU STORE BULK PURCHASES?

Disposable baking pans and covers — especially challah pans, which I need the first Shabbos after Pesach!

Tissues. I open all of the boxes before storing them so we never have to worry about open tissues before Shabbos.

Regular and fancy papergoods, cutlery and cups

I like to stock up on men’s wool tzitzis. As a busy working mom, I find that they’re so time-consuming to wash (yeah, dry cleaners too), it’s just not worth it for me to take care of them. Before Pesach we can find good deals on them, so we stock up for the year.

Music Lessons for

At my workplace

We get very creative with storing our bulk orders. Wherever there’s an empty spot, something fills it up. For example, under my buffet and china closet we have plates, tablecloths, Ziploc bags and boxes of cutlery, and on top of the seforim, we store cases of baking pans. Between the kitchen cabinets and the ceiling are packages of napkins and containers.

I’m lucky to have a walkin closet for storage. One shelf is dedicated to paper goods.

We store bulk items in the dead space behind our sectional couch.

PARSHAS VAYAKHEL

Shabbos Above All

Y. Levenstein

When Moshe Rabbeinu gathers Klal Yisroel to introduce the building of the Mishkan, he first reminds them of the mitzvah of Shabbos. “Six days work may be done, but on the seventh day you shall have sanctity, a day of complete rest to Hashem; whoever performs work shall be put to death” (Shemos 35:2).

As the Yidden prepared to begin building the Mishkan, Moshe wanted to remind them that there is something even more important: shemiras Shabbos. As significant as building the Mishkan may be, it does not supersede Shabbos.

Interestingly, in the previous parsha, Ki Sisa, when Hashem issues the commandment to build the Mishkan, Hashem first speaks of the Mishkan and only then tells Moshe Rabbeinu to warn the Yidden about shemiras Shabbos. “Ach es Shabsosai tishmoru” — Only keep My Shabbos, for it is a sign between Me and you for generations… ( Shemos 31:13).

Hashem uses the expression “ach,” which Chazal say always comes to diminish. Hashem was insinuating that although it is very important to build the Mishkan, it is even more important to keep Shabbos. Why, when Hashem spoke to Moshe, did He first command him regarding the Mishkan and then about Shabbos, while Moshe, when speaking to Klal Yisroel, switched the order and first introduced Shabbos and then the Mishkan?

THE KLI YAKAR EXPLAINS: Shabbos is indicative of the kavod of Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Keeping Shabbos demonstrates that we recognize that Hashem created the world.

The Mishkan is an indication of the kavod of Klal Yisroel. Hashem pardoned us for the Chet Ha’egel, and brought His Shechinah to rest among us.

In a show of respect to Klal Yisroel, Hashem preceded the commandment of the Mishkan to the mitzvah of Shabbos, commanding the mitzvah that represents His kavod second to the mitzvah that represents the kavod of His nation. To impress upon us that Shabbos is actually more important than the Mishkan, Hashem inserted a “but,” with the word “ach.”

On the other hand, when Moshe Rabbeinu relayed Hashem’s words to Klal Yisroel, he reversed the order, since he wished to express the kavod of Hakadosh Baruch Hu over the kavod of Klal Yisroel. And so, Moshe first spoke about Shabbos and then about the Mishkan.

THE BRISKER RAV looked up to the sky and then back toward the shore. “When will the ship dock?” he asked anxiously.

PICK

ONE.

BLOCKS BUILD MORE THAN TOWERS.

“Can I bring along the necklace Mama gave me? It’s very precious to me… And, besides, it isn’t actually Shabbos yet.”

The sun was about to set, heralding the arrival of Shabbos Kodesh, and the Brisker Rav and some of his young children were aboard the ship that was bringing them to Eretz Yisroel. It was a stormy time for Klal Yisroel — 1941, in the midst of the great destruction of Europe — and the Rav had the opportunity to escape, while his wife and younger children remained behind.

Again and again, the Rav checked his watch and asked aloud, “How much longer until we arrive?” Trepidation was visible on his face. It was taking longer than expected, and Shabbos was drawing near.

Finally, the ship anchored, bringing its relieved passengers to safe shores. There was still time before the sun would actually set, but the Rav announced to his family members, “To me, it is already Shabbos!” He rushed to disembark the ship and instructed his children to leave all of their belongings on board. He paid no heed to the fact that leaving their valises — which carried all their meager worldly possessions — unattended on the ship likely meant they would never be seen again.

“Please, Papa!” his youngest daughter begged. “Can I bring along the necklace Mama gave me? It’s the only thing I have to remember Mama! It’s very precious to me… And, besides, it isn’t actually Shabbos yet.”

“My dear daughter,” the Rav replied in a warm, yet unyielding tone. “I’m also leaving behind my most valuable belongings. The ksavim of my father, Rav Chaim of Brisk, are all in my suitcase. You know how precious they are to me… But Shabbos is more special than all!”

When the girl heard that her grandfather’s ksavim would also be remaining on the ship, she calmed down. She understood that at this moment, it was truly impossible to take anything along.

Fundraising in the United States was no easy feat for the great Rosh Yeshivah, Rav Boruch Ber of Kaminetz. But when it became clear that there was simply no other way to keep his yeshivah afloat, the Rosh Yeshivah undertook the tiresome, challenging journey.

Reb Boruch Ber spent a Shabbos in the most frum shul available, one that had a proper, kosher mechitzah for the ezras nashim. After davening, Reb Boruch Ber delivered a rousing drasha on the topic of supporting Torah, calling on the mispallelim to pledge their support of his yeshivah. The Yidden in the shul were indeed moved and promised to give an astronomical sum for those days — two thousand dollars.

It seemed like a successful fundraising venture, until… Immediately after Maariv on Motzei Shabbos, the kehillah presented the Rosh Yeshivah with a check made out in the amount of $2,000. They felt a sense of pride and satisfaction. To everyone’s shock, however, Reb Boruch Ber took the check and

To everyone’s shock, Reb Boruch Ber took the check and ripped it to pieces

ripped it to pieces. He was worried that if the check was ready so soon after Shabbos, it meant it had likely been written out before the zman

He explained, “The yeshivah is indeed desperate for funds in order to remain open, but I don’t want to use money that may have caused chillul Shabbos. You see, for hachzakas haTorah, only the purest money will do!”

Menachem Daniel was a wealthy philanthropist, originally from Baghdad, who lived in Eretz Yisroel. One Shabbos afternoon, his butler appeared at the home of Chacham Salman Mutzafi, a venerated kabbalist who hailed from Baghdad as well.

He informed the family member who opened the door that he needed the Chacham to accompany him to his master’s home quite urgently.

When he heard that the Chacham was not home, the butler rushed to shul where he indeed found the great talmid chacham immersed in a sefer.

“My master requests that the Chacham come with me to his home. The British consul is due to arrive with a full entourage from England to sign on a deal.”

Rav Mutzafi gazed at the man sharply and called out in shock, “A business deal on Shabbos Kodesh?!”

After a moment’s thought, though, the Chacham stood up and prepared to accompany the butler to the philanthropist’s home. They walked into the elegantly appointed house and found the consul and his entourage already seated around a large table. Seeing the Chacham, regally dressed in his Shabbos clothes, they all welcomed him reverently.

Rav Mutzafi strode right over to the closet and lifted an ornate clock. “In another two hours, the sun will set, and a half hour after that, Shabbos will leave. Only then will I be able to join you to settle this deal. Until then, it is Shabbos, and as a Jew, I am obligated to protect its holiness.”

It was silent in the room. Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. But the consul immediately stood up and announced, “We very much value your faith and justness. We will wait here until your Sabbath is over.”

Rav Mutzafi thanked him and left the house, returning to his sefer in the beis midrash

When the Chacham arrived in shul, his face was shining and he was in a state of ecstasy. He announced for all to hear, “I have never felt such great kedusha as I felt during those moments, when I was mekadesh Shem Shamayim before ten honorable officials who agreed to wait more than two hours with the understanding that Shabbos is holier than anything else, and that the Jews guard its purity without compromise!”

Shabbos is our most special gift, and there is nothing in the world that is more important than guarding it’s kedusha.

The Vision, The Legacy, and a Grand New Era

Not everyone can see the future. But twenty years ago, Mr. Yanki Roth of Mefoar did. The heimish Judaica industry—where every Shabbos, Yom Tov, and simcha is elevated, where beauty and tradition intertwine to enhance our most cherished moments—was waiting to be transformed. He saw not just what was, but what could be. And with a keen eye on tomorrow, he brought it to life. But it takes a visionary to see what can potentially be, and that’s the essence of Mr. Roth. It’s also this vision that makes the Mefoar store in Monsey so majestic. Sure, you can easily shop online, but the experience of seeing the products, of feeling the joy of Judaica, is something you can only have at the Mefoar showroom.

How it all began

“I used to get calls every day: Why don’t you open a store in Monsey?” says Mr. Roth. Mefoar’s Boro Park store often got groups of shoppers from out of town seeking the Judaica products they couldn’t find anywhere else. Aside from the pull of the vast array of Judaica products, there’s a unique magnetism to the place. After the daily 1:40 p.m. Mincha minyan at Mefoar, many yungerleit stick around to browse the new products. There’s an atmosphere suffused with not only the beauty of Yiddishkeit, but the wonders of how creative products can uplift our daily lives.

The requests for a Mefoar in Monsey intensified once a lot of the heimish olam began moving out of Brooklyn. “We have everything we need. Now we need Mefoar,” Monsey residents told Mr. Roth. And now, right in the heart of town, the townspeople have their very own Mefoar. And what a space it is. Designed by the legendary Yitzchok Fisher from WeForm Interiors, the store is a splendid showroom experience like no other.

“The magic of Yitzchok’s work is that he doesn’t only design stunning spaces. He makes sure every part of the design is functional,” Mr. Roth says. From the moment you walk in until you’re ready to check out, the layout is intuitive and pleasant, making every part of the browsing experience a true pleasure. Impressive showcases house exclusive Mefoar products so you can see the designs, touch the fabrics, and ultimately make your selection.

Location, location, location

Being at the center of town was important for Mr. Roth. He wanted a location that could be easily accessible, especially for chasanim and bochurim After looking for the right space, they found it on Robert Pitt Drive.

“Right next door you have G&G, Kraus Shtreimel, and Mens’ Collection. There are plenty of shuls in walking distance, and shuttles making stops nearby; we’re really at the heart of it all.”

There’s more to see

With a burgeoning community that encompasses every type and stripe, Mefoar fits right in. Products come in several designs, colors, and oftentimes sizes, to suit every lifestyle. Take their tzitzis collection, which might just be the largest in the world.

Displayed proudly near the entrance, it features dozens of options, each ready for you to explore. White on white. Black on white. Cotton. Poly-cotton. T-shirt style. Classic style. V-neck. Round neck. Thick techeiles. Thin techeiles. For every chassidus and shita, the options are displayed before your eyes for easy selection.

Next, we see the regal collection of tefillin beitlach, with a few hundred pieces on display. A kiosk nearby lets you see all the versions possible, with over 30,000 pictures to inspire your design.

The collection of challah covers captures the imagination with tens of different designs to fit right into your home. Matching challah boards stand proudly nearby, ready to

adorn your Shabbos table. These challah boards hold a thoughtful touch of innovation, specifically engineered with legs to fit atop dishes and not take up additional space on your tablescape.

“For the first time in Monsey, we created a center specifically for shuls,” Mr. Roth says proudly. Nestled in a quiet corner of a store, customers can browse the collection of paroches, atzei chaim, crowns, and mentelech; all the important details to outfit a shul with grandeur.

The world of Mefoar is truly all-encompassing. Although we listed several elements, the breadth of the collection runs the gamut from creative—think Kopele, the affable children’s character with various toys and products that children love—to elevated classics, like machzorim, siddurim, and seforim; all top-tier, all on par with what the heimish olam needs.

Bringing ideas to life

solid system that works. The salespeople are on the ground, ready to walk you through the options to make sure you find the products that you need. Whether you’re looking for a gift or an ornament to grace your Shabbos table, the Mefoar staff is here to make sure you’re fully satisfied.

Mr. Roth doesn’t settle. Several times a year, he travels around the globe to source fabrics for different products and he’s constantly seeking the new. New products. New ideas. New creations that can beautify Yiddishe homes. Who else would think of creating an acrylic haggadah shtender for the seder that not only looks elegant, but also protects the haggadah from unsightly wine stains?

Mr. Roth’s innovation, that we know and appreciate, is driven by the need to make products that enhance our everyday. That’s why it works so well. “I create the things that people need,” he says simply. “ And as a bonus, we make them beautiful. That’s Mefoar.”

Fit for a king

Speaking of Pesach, it’s that time of year where balabatim and balebustas are thinking of their seder table. As every year, Mefoar has created exquisite Pesach sets to bedeck the table. There’s a section in the store dedicated to showcasing the sets so customers can see the pieces as it would look on their seder table.

The sets include the entirety of the Seder, including a matzah cover, pillow cover, afikomen bag, towel, and haggadah, each piece made with splendor as befits a Pesach seder.

The extra mile

Like everything else at Mefoar, their customer service isn’t done halfway. “Have a question? They have answers. Having an issue? Let them solve it. Need help? They’re right here for you,” Mr. Roth says. He knows this is vital to keeping his customers satisfied, and he’s made sure to implement a

There’s even more excitement in store for our new neighbors. In honor of the Grand Opening, enjoy incredible, onetime-only specials. With deals like 30% off Mefoar tzitzis, 40% off Mefoar taleisim, and a free gift with every purchase, there’s something for everyone, because that’s Mefoar. They’re here to please.

Monsey asked and Mefoar answered

Right here, at 20 Robert Pitt Drive, is a magnificent store ready to entrance you with an incredible selection of Judaic innovation. What you’ll find there—aside from a breathtaking collection—is that it’s more than just a store. It’s an experience. Come see for yourself.

Successful Search for Missing Jet-skiers

Quick thinking by Chaverim of Rockland led to a Caribbean Sea rescue last week, after two men went missing while jet-skiing off the coast of Aruba.

The miraculous rescue unfolded when a third man, who had traveled to Aruba with the other two, received a call from the jet-ski rental business saying that his friends had not returned from their excursion on the water. The third man reached out to local law enforcement, as well as Chaverim of Rockland, who persuaded Aruba’s Coast Guard to go out immediately to search for the missing men, instead of waiting until morning.

After searching the water for over an hour, the Coast Guard team found a jet-ski with no rider, an ominous sign. Continuing their hunt in the darkened sea, rescuers hoped that they would find both men on the same jet-ski. They eventually located the second jet-ski, but with only one rider. A short time later, the missing man was found, his life

jacket keeping him afloat in the Caribbean Sea’s choppy water for approximately four hours.

Both men were transported back to dry land by a rescue helicopter.

NJ EMT Hailed as Hero in GSP Bus Crash

A 22-year-old volunteer EMT was recognized for his quick action after a school bus from Lakewood flipped over onto the shoulder of the Garden State Parkway on March 10.

The bus, which was carrying 29 boys to a sheva brachos in Skver, left the roadway at mile marker 170.5 on the northbound Parkway shortly before 8 p.m. Eyewitness News reported that Matt Goldman, a nursing school student and a member of the Tri-Boro Volunteer Ambulance Corps, was driving directly behind the bus, and he pulled over onto the shoulder of the highway and began helping students off the bus.

When first responders arrived at the scene, Goldman informed them that there was a fourteen-year-old under the

bus. Volunteers managed to lift the bus, and the injured teen was rushed to a local hospital. Thirteen others were treated for injuries sustained in the crash.

Multiple rescuers rushed to the scene, including Hatzolah of Rockland, Bergen Hatzalah, Chaverim of Rockland, TriBoro Volunteer Ambulance Corps, and the Woodcliff Lake, Montvale Volunteer and Paramus fire departments. The Garden State Parkway was closed north of Exit 171 for hours, with signs warning drivers heading through the Montvale area to use other routes.

Goldman, who began volunteering with Tri-Boro as a sixteen-year-old, is due to graduate nursing school in May. He was honored by the Town of Montvale on March 13, with Mayor Mike Ghassali presenting him with the key to the town and saying that he hopes that others will be inspired by his actions.

than 400 members were told that they would see their stipends doubling after Pesach.

The Monsey Viznitz Rebbe arranged for a March 9 meeting at the Forshay home of a local philanthropist to raise funds for the kollel. The Rebbe’s divrei bracha urged those present to contribute generously, with reports also shared on Beis Medrash Govoha’s ongoing Adirei HaTorah initiative.

Millions of dollars were pledged on the spot, with kollel avreichim informed of their upcoming increases on March 10.

Two Arrested in Walmart Bomb Scare

Two Rockland County residents were arrested last week in connection with a March 9 bomb threat that had Walmart shoppers evacuated from the store, which remained closed for hours.

The Ramapo police arrested 21-yearold Spring Valley resident Francky Charles and 22-year-old Nyack resident Roosevelt Depas on March 12. Both were charged with making a terroristic threat, a felony, and were released without bail pending a future court appearance.

According to police, Charles and Depas entered the Tallman store at approximately 7:15 p.m. on March 9, telling store employees that they had a bomb. The pair fled the scene as shoppers were quickly ushered out of the store, while police used specially trained dogs to search the entire building for explosives.

The heavy law enforcement presence at Walmart included the Ramapo police assisted by its own officers who are assigned to the FBI Task Force, the New York State Intelligence Center, Rockland County Intelligence Center, Rockland County Crime Analysis Center, Rockland County Sheriff’s Office Bureau of Criminal Investigation and K9 Unit, and the Town of Clarkstown Police Department K9 Unit.

Walmart locations are often subject to bomb threats, with incidents recorded since the start of 2025 in Valley Stream, New York, as well as in California, Colorado, Iowa, Louisiana, Minnesota, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Virginia.

Judge

Dismisses Claim

Against Pomona Golf Course Development

The Minisceongo Golf Course is one step closer to becoming a housing development now that an attempt to derail the project has been dismissed by a Supreme Court judge.

Judge Keith Cornell rejected a claim that the Ramapo Town Board violated state environmental regulations when it approved a high-density plan for the 143.6-acre parcel last March. The proposed Miller’s Pond development, located between Pomona Road, the Mount Ivy Environmental Park, Station Road and Camp Hill Road, is slated to have 637 townhouses, as well as businesses and areas set aside for open space.

Members of the Ramapo planning board have already approved a density of five residential homes per acre, with a maximum of twelve units per acre in a specified multi-family zone. Miller’s Pond is slated to go before the Town of Ramapo planning board once again in the hopes of getting its site development plan approved, although the plaintiffs who brought the previous case can appeal Cornell’s ruling to an Appellate court.

Ramapo Supervisor Michael Specht said that he was happy that the court recognized that the town had followed procedure, complied with state-mandated environmental requirements, and had made “a rational decision” in approving the development.

“The court’s decision was well reasoned and based on an extensive review of the record, and our counsel is confident that any appeal will be to no avail,” said Specht.

TWENTY-TWO

Roiza couldn’t remember the last time she felt jealous like this. It was just something you outgrew as you aged. No one’s life was perfect, and no one’s life was awful. A pekele here, a pekele there.

She sat on the rusty bench in their neighborhood park while the world walked. There were so many walking, running, jogging people, while she sat with her walker within arm’s reach, and her daughterin-law Blimi, Eli’s wife, sitting next to her and davening Babysitting her mother-in-law.

She suspected that this whole outing was a ruse to get her out of her own house so her kids could talk about her. She was the little girl eavesdropping, so let’s get a babysitter.

Of course, they’d planned it kindly. She had overheard Kaily talking to Perela about having everyone under one roof to discuss her care, and Yiddy had called her saying he had a large job in Monsey, so he would be around later. Then Eli’s wife called to invite her to the park. “The weather is gorgeous, shvigger. I didn’t leave my house in weeks. Maybe you want to join me?”

The bench dug into her back, and she felt the familiar tingling in her fingers.

Dance. Dance. Dance. There was nothing she could do as her fingers began to dance. She’d learned to recognize the warning signal telling her fingers to start the dance, but there was no way to predict how long it

Shalva Epstein from down the block was power walking on the winding, leafy pathway. They’d gone to school together back in the Bronx, and they’d landed on the same Monsey block. They had kids the same ages, and they should be up to the same place about now.

Now Roiza sat, her hip throbbing from the uncomfortable position, while Shalva was wearing sneakers, her hands equally balanced on either side, her lips set in a firm, strong, non-quivering line, and there definitely wasn’t a child of hers solicitously nearby. Shalva even wore earbuds as she walked briskly around the path.

“Hi, Roiza!” Shalva called.

Roiza waved. She watched Shalva disappear around the bend. Shalva had sent over the most delicious apple pie when she heard about Roiza’s fall.

When she finished another round, she walked over to Roiza.

She removed an earbud. “Roiza! Good to see you! I just listened to a fascinating shiur on the parsha.”

Roiza tried remembering what parsha it was.

“Come, join me on my last round.”

“With my third leg?”

Shalva nodded. “I feel like I’m looking at myself from last year,” she said. “You know I had a knee replacement last summer, right?”

Roiza hadn’t known.

“And now I walk every day. I was like you for months!”

A pekele here, a pekele there.

Blimi followed the exchange and motioned for Roiza to join Shalva. “Nu.” She pointed to her siddur to indicate that she was finishing up and would join them afterward.

Slowly, Blimi helped her up. Roiza moved her walker

forward, the early November breeze prodding them along.

Shalva snuck her arm into Roiza’s, and with the added support, they started down the path.

“Roiza, you know what kept me going?” Shalva said carefully. “I just imagined myself being able to give back to my kids, who helped me so much.”

Roiza shook her head. “Shalva,” she whispered sadly, “this isn’t going to get better. It’s going to get worse and worse and worse. Until I’m an invalid on a feeding tube. Until I can’t talk, or think, or walk at all.”

Shalva stroked her hand.

“I have Parkinson’s,” Roiza said. “And it could affect everything. It already has.” She started crying. “I shake like that leaf over there. Some days, I just feel… like I want to stay in bed forever.”

Shalva walked silently beside her. The walker rattled on the uneven pavement, and Roiza almost missed a step. It was hard for her to walk and talk at the same time.

“Last year, at physical therapy, I met a bunch of women… like you,” Shalva said as they rounded the bend. “They meet, they dance, they sing. They love it. But mostly, they share.”

Roiza nodded. Her chin quivered, and her right shoulder jerked.

too full to answer. He was sweet, that brother of hers.

“Kaily, since you called this meeting, tell us what has to be discussed,” Yiddy said. He turned on his tablet and placed it in the center of the table.

“Money,” Kaily said simply.

“And the fact that she can’t be home alone,” Perela said. She launched into the story again. Yiddy stopped her.

“I get the point. We have a Zoom meeting in a minute with my friend. He’s the manager of a home healthcare agency. He claims it’s no big deal to sign up on CDPAP.”

“It’s that program that pays for family members to care for their disabled family member,” Kaily translated.

“I know how it works,” Eli said. “Blimi’s relatives who work with Chuni get paid like that.”

Yiddy connected his friend, and Kaily took notes. Perela’s eyes glazed

YIDDY POUNDED ON THE TABLE WITH MORE ENERGY THAT ALL OF HIS SOLAR PANELS COMBINED. “MOMMY IS ONLY GOING TO BE OUT FOR ONE HOUR. LET’S GET STARTED”

“Your kids are amazing,” Shalva continued. “But it’s good for you to be with women who really understand you.”

Roiza leaned heavily on Shalva. “I would like that,” she said.

* * * * *

Yiddy pounded on the table with more energy that all of his solar panels combined.

“Mommy is only going to be out for one hour. Let’s get started.”

Kaily looked at Perela and smirked. Eli eyed his brother with a mixture of amusement and antagonism. He hated being second to his younger brother.

Eli grabbed a handful of nuts and popped them into his mouth all at once. Probably to keep his mouth

over the moment the CDPAP guy started talking. Eli resumed eating nuts.

It really didn’t seem like a big deal. A visit from a social worker, some follow-up, and then, hopefully, she would become the primary caregiver.

“From what I hear, I think your mother qualifies for full-time care.”

“How much can I expect to earn a month?” Kaily asked.

“Minimum wage multiplied by twenty-four hours a day. Give or take.”

She quickly did the calculations in her head and added it to her mother’s meager social security check. Food, utilities, aqua therapy Kaily swallowed. It would be… just about enough.

Perela relaxed. “It’s more than

you earned at your job, right?” she asked.

Kaily didn’t respond. Perela wanted to get rid of the guilt she was carrying since she heard Kaily quit; Kaily wasn’t going to help her.

When the guy disconnected, Kaily jumped in.

“Mommy needs a job,” Kaily said. Eli sputtered, bits of nuts spraying the air, and Perela looked at her like she lost her marbles.

“She can’t even wash her hands,” she said.

“We know,” Yiddy said. “I think you mentioned it today.”

Perela looked wounded.

“Don’t look at me like that,” Kaily said. “I don’t mean opening a business or becoming a pilot. But any meaningful occupation. She’s going crazy from sitting home with her thoughts all day. She needs to be busy.”

Perela nodded. “Kaily is right.”

“The hydrotherapist recommended this right away. She claimed that giving her meaning in her life will keep her motivated and healthier,” Kaily explained.

we were thinking.”

“But a handicap-accessible bathroom will cost thousands of dollars,” Yiddy said.

And you have it, Kaily wanted to say.

“Why did Tatty cash out his life insurance policy?” Yiddy grumbled. “It would’ve been more than enough.”

Eli stilled.

“Tatty cashed out his life insurance?” Kaily asked, narrowing her eyes. She’d never heard of such a policy. “Why did he do that?”

Eli glared at Yiddy with fire in his eyes.

“Never mind,” Yiddy said.

“When did he cash it?” she pressed. It was so not like Tatty to be careless about such a thing.

“Well, for the weddings,” Yiddy answered vaguely.

Perela’s wedding? My wedding? Fifteen years ago?

Perela looked bewildered, but Eli

“TATTY CASHED OUT HIS LIFE INSURANCE?” KAILY ASKED, NARROWING HER EYES. SHE’D NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A POLICY. “WHY DID HE DO THAT?”

“But she doesn’t even know how to turn on a computer. Let alone type,” Eli said. “I would have no problem giving her some of the seforim I’m working on. But she can’t.”

“And her hands shake,” Perela said needlessly.

“Let’s think what she can do,” Kaily said.

“Talk, obviously,” Perela answered.

Kaily tilted her head. “She can talk, but it’s not always easy for her. She gets hoarse easily.”

“But meanwhile, she can talk. She can make phone calls, then,” Yiddy said authoritatively. “I could use a telemarketer.”

“Are you kidding?”

“Not at all. She’ll keep busy, and if she gets a client, hakol revach.”

“And from all the money she earns, we can install the handicapaccessible bathroom,” Kaily said cynically. “But seriously, it has to happen asap. We need a roll-in shower by tonight. We should’ve done it before she even came home. I don’t know what

and Yiddy were still at war with their eyes.

It hit Kaily suddenly. Not their weddings. Chaim and Gedalya’s weddings.

“Oh…” she whispered. So that’s where the money had come from.

None of her siblings met her eyes.

“It’s fine,” Yiddy quickly said. “I’ll pay for the bathroom. You can hire someone today if you want.”

Kaily stared at the patterned tablecloth.

She had wanted to say so much at this meeting. How it wasn’t fair to rely on her so much, how badly she needed to shop with Sruly. How she hadn’t bought herself a thing to wear, and the wedding was in two months.

But all of the words she had wanted to say stayed stuck in her throat.

They were right to leave it all on her. She owed her mother more than all of them combined.

LEAH’S CORNER

As you get ready to tackle your Pesach cooking, we are back with a four-week culinary collection of timeless Yom Tov classics developed by our beloved and unforgettable food columnist Leah Stern, a”h

A SLICE OF PESACH WEEK 1 OF 4

NOTES:

If using homemade potato starch, make sure it’s completely dry before using it in your baking.

If you own a heavy-duty mixer, you can bake the following cakes in one bowl by adding yolks to the beaten snow, and then proceeding with the rest of the ingredients.

COFFEE NUT TORTE

This is an all-time Pesach staple.

INGREDIENTS

11 eggs, separated

1½ cups sugar, divided

¾ cup potato starch

6 oz. ground walnuts or filberts

1 T. coffee dissolved in 2 tsp. hot water

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Beat whites with half of sugar.

2. In a separate bowl, mix the remaining ingredients, and fold gently into the egg whites.

3. Pour batter into a non-disposable twopiece tube pan. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes.

SPONGE CAKE WITH WINE CHATEAU

This light and fluffy cake served with chateau and fruit is a Hungarian delicacy.

CAKE

9 eggs, separated

1 cup plus 2 T. sugar, divided

1 cup plus 2 T. potato starch

1 T. lemon juice

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Beat egg whites. Add half a cup of the sugar, and continue beating until stiff.

2. In a separate bowl, beat yolks with the rest of the sugar until thick and light in color. On low speed, add potato starch and juice. Carefully combine with whites.

3. Pour into a two-piece tube pan or two medium-sized loaf pans. Bake for 1 hour in a tube pan, or 45 to 50 minutes in loaf pans.

CHATEAU

3 eggs, separated

½ cup sugar

½ cup sweet white wine (I use Cream White Concord)

DIRECTIONS

1. Place yolks and sugar in a 4-quart saucepan. Beat with whisk until thick and light in color. Add wine and continue beating. Add whites slowly while beating vigorously. Constant beating is the trick to prevent eggs from curdling.

2. Turn on flame, and bring to a boil while beating the entire time. Remove from flame, and beat for a bit longer. Serve immediately.

Note: Chateau is very delicate and must be prepared right before serving.

TOPPING

2 T. chopped filberts

2 tsp. sugar

1 tsp. cinnamon

DIRECTIONS

10. Optional: For more crispy biscotti, preheat the oven to 250°. Lay the slices flat on a baking sheet, and toast for 10 minutes.

Note: If using packaged filberts, use 6 oz. chopped filberts and 6 oz. ground. If using whole nuts, chop them in a food processor until they are mostly ground, with some pieces remaining for texture.

Tip: For perfectly shaped biscotti, divide the recipe among three 10-inch loaf pans. After baking, cut each one into 12 slices.

C.G. HOFFMAN

Everything about the United States of America is oversized. The land stretches from sea to shining sea, encompassing four time zones on continental America and six if you include Alaska and Hawaii. Climates range from the steamy tropical to the frozen tundra (with deserts in between). Americans were the first to embrace large-scale automobile travel. The exciting new technology matched the American ambition to be free and travel large. American sofas, American kitchens, American food portions and American sodas are bigger than in any other country. But the American love for bigger everything has also resulted in larger Americans: the American obesity epidemic costs the healthcare industry over $200 billion per year.

One American institution has taken Americans’ love for bigger and better, threw in the thrill of a good deal, and created a giant business that netted $249.6 billion in sales in 2024: Costco.

A CLUB AND A PHILOSOPHY

Costco opened in 1976 under the name Price Club. It catered mostly to businesses, offering prime goods at wholesale prices. The first store to open under the Costco name was in Seattle in 1983. It was a unique business model: People would pay an annual membership price, which allowed them to buy top-quality goods, often in bulk, at prices that were way cheaper than at other retail establishments.

One of the founders said, “Our operating philosophy has been simple. Keep costs down, and pass the savings on to our members.”

That philosophy has paid off. Today Costco employs some 304,000 people across the globe, and had a staggering 129.5 million members as of November 2023.

SUPERSIZED!

The first feeling that strikes a newbie on their first trip to Costco is universal: It’s so big. Everything about Costco is supersized. The average Costco warehouse measures about 140,000 square feet, which is roughly the size of two football fields. The shopping carts are oversized (all the better to fit those monstrous packs of Bounty paper towels and diapers, both of which a Yiddishe family always needs), the aisles are oversized, and the shelves can reach a whopping 40 feet tall.

Julio, an immigrant from communist Cuba, cried the first time he visited Costco. “This is too much. It’s just too much!”

He was overwhelmed by the things we take for granted, such as a bag of apples. He was stunned at the sheer variety and mammoth sizes of packaged meat, fruit and baked goods.

At the end of his visit he turned pensive, and said, “When I first arrived here in America, they said I was an alien. Now that I am here, I see that I really am an alien.”

While Costco’s business model may seem like it has a wholesale mentality, the crux of their success is their phenomenal customer service. Going to Costco is usually a fun experience, with free samples and product demonstrations providing some entertainment. Staff members are trained to be pleasant and to always try to accommodate the customers.

This February, one Costco shopper found a package of beef that was marked at a shocking 11¢. When the checkout clerk spotted what was obviously a mistake, she took it to the manager. Amazingly, the manager stood by the sticker price, and announced it to be the customer’s lucky day. In addition to Costco’s rock-bottom prices, it’s customer-focused service like this that makes shoppers come back again and again.

Costco also tries to satisfy their customer base by offering region- or culture-specific items. Costco stores that are in heavily Jewish areas, for instance, will often boast a large selection of kosher food. Their extra-large Kedem grape juice bottles are legendary, but they offer so much more, often carrying seasonal items around Yom Tov time.

Similarly, Japanese Costco stores offer more sushi than, say, their British counterparts, where “jacket potatoes” (baked potatoes for the rest of us) are very popular. You’ll also find kielbasa and pierogies at Polish Costcos, and the olive selection at Spain’s Costco would rival any gourmet market.

HOUSES AT COSTCO?

LOW PRICES, HIGH STANDARDS

One of the key elements of their success is that Costco is not a cheap store. They just sell high-quality, name brand goods for less. Costco chairman Hamilton James says that Costco is “by no means a dollar store.” They are not at all like Walmart, which sells everything; they keep their product offerings selective by offering only high-quality products.

While you may think that Costco’s core membership must consist of middle-class earners trying to stretch their paychecks, you may be surprised to know that a considerable percent of Costco shoppers are from the highest income brackets. It’s not just plain folks who look for bargains; the rich love a good deal too. It’s these wealthy shoppers who consistently drive Costco to sell out its stock of high-end, luxury goods.

That’s why one of the more interesting areas where Costco has recently seen success is in the luxury market. While Costco may not be the first place you’d think to buy a diamond engagement ring, in recent years they have seen a boom in jewelry sales. Surprisingly, they’ve seen great success with their higher-end offerings, selling diamond rings as large as 10 carats and luxury pieces for $40,000 to $50,000. Due to their strict quality standards, their jewelry selection is famous for its quality; each piece is hand-inspected by expert gemologists, and all diamonds must meet GIA grading criteria.

With today’s uncertain economic climate, another interesting commodity at Costco has gained traction: gold bars. Some people feel safer investing their money in pure gold rather than keeping it in banks. Costco moves between $100 and $200 million dollars in gold bars

Costco has recently made forays into another market: housing. South Los Angeles may soon be the first place in the United States where you can actually live in Costco housing. Ground has recently been broken for a new Costco store in that underprivileged neighborhood, with plans that include 800 residential units on the upper floors. About 23% of the apartments will be reserved for low-income households, with the rest going to working families. The building will include a fitness center, community rooms, landscaping and a rooftop pool. And, of course, easy access to fresh food at — where else? — Costco!

each month. Sales are driven both by affluent Costco members or people who are simply suspicious of the economy.

Chairman James says that it’s the wealthy members who allow Costco to “do remarkable things.”

“Since the beginning,” he told Chief Executive magazine, “we’ve always known we could move anything in volume if the quality was good and the price was great — Rolex watches, Dom Perignon, 10-carat diamonds.”

In fact, a Porsche car dealer once displayed their cars in a Seattle Costco and sold out within a week!

THE LAND OF KIRKLAND

There’s one offering you’ll see a lot of at a Costco store: their store-brand Kirkland. The name comes from the city of Kirkland, the location of the company’s original Washington State headquarters. While they had by then moved to neighboring Issaqua, founder James Sinegal said, “Nobody could spell Is-

FUN FACTS ABOUT COSTCO

The smallest Costco in the world is in Juneau, Alaska. The largest is in Salt Lake City, Utah, which measures a whopping 235,000 square feet.

Costco sells 4 billion eggs per year.

Costco also sells over 1 billion rolls of toilet paper each year.

Even more impressively, Costco sells about 212 pounds of diamonds each year.

Costco sells half of the world’s cashews, supporting a staggering 2.5 million independent farmers.

Costco is one of America’s biggest car dealers.

The country with the highest percentage of Costco members might surprise you: It’s Iceland!

After the company realized that entrepreneurs were loading up planes with pallets of Costco goods to sell in Iceland at a markup, they decided to enter the Iceland market.

No ID on you? Some airports might accept your Costco membership card as ID.

The Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Costco location has special parking reserved for horses and buggies.

The layout of Costco stores has a very specific strategy. Common necessities, such as light bulbs and paper towels, are regularly relocated, so that customers have to hunt for them, thereby exposing them to more products they might not otherwise have bought.

saqua!” So they stuck to Kirkland.

In the beginning, Costco sold many of their own products under different names, but then the company decided to unify all of their offerings under one name to stay consistent and to create a brand that is instantly recognizable.

The Kirkland brand allows Costco to offer customers highquality food items, with customers trusting the brand to consistently perform as well as or even better than other nationally sold brands. This strategy seems to have paid off; in the past year, Costco netted $58 billion in profits from Kirkland products alone.

Some Kirkland products are produced by nationally recognized, high-quality companies. For example, Kirkland brand baby diapers are actually manufactured by Huggies, giving you the same quality for less, and several Kirkland Signature coffee products are custom-roasted by Starbucks, even though they look generic. For even further savings, Kirkland items are often on sale, allowing customers to take advantage of steep discounts — and encouraging them to keep coming back for more supersized sales and savings.

Costco is a warehouse wonderland, where bulk buying and overflowing shopping carts filled with Kirkland items is a way of life.

It’s more than just stocking up, though; it’s the thrill of snagging a deal, feeling like you’ve outsmarted the system by securing a month’s supply of paper towels for the price of one week’s worth at another store.

Let’s hear from seven Costco shoppers who navigate the expansive aisles to buy their staples, basics and bulk, making Costco shopping an integral part of their routines.

What do you buy exclusively at Costco?

Diapers and wipes are staples we only buy at Costco. And we always fill up our gas tank there. Costco gas prices are unbeatable!

Five things that are always on our Costco list are…

Avocado oil, plastic cups, seltzer, water, paper towels, napkins and definitely eggs. (I know, I listed more than five.) With egg prices skyrocketing everywhere, these are a must-buy at Costco.

Interesting items I’ve picked up at Costco are… I’ve found great makeup and skincare products there.

We store our Costco purchases… Most items go into our pantry off the kitchen, toiletries are kept in the bathroom, and diapers and wipes are stored in one of the kids’ bedrooms.

SHIFFY DEUTCH

FAMILY

5 kids, ages 2–9

What do you buy exclusively at Costco? Coffee cups, ground coffee, Ziploc bags and Motrin (where else can you find 3 for $10?).

Also, we only buy Costco’s brand gloves. My cleaning lady introduced me to them before I was a member. She would buy them for me, and I would reimburse her.

Five things that are always on our Costco list are… Cherry tomatoes, peppers, tissues, coffee cups, and of course, disposable gloves.

I would love to buy more produce, but everything in Costco is sold in bulk, and my kids don’t eat that much fruits and veggies. I once mistakenly grabbed a branch of four tomatoes on the vine, only to discover at checkout that they’re sold by the box.

Lesson learned!

One thing I don’t buy at Costco is…

Gas. We usually do our Costco shopping on Sundays, when there’s a line of cars snaking along at the gas station. Although their gas is definitely cheap, my husband believes that time is money as well.

An interesting item I’ve picked up at Costco is… A pair of pants for my husband. My husband was really excited with the quality, fit and price, which called for another trip to stock up on more.

We store our Costco purchases… We store our purchases either in the basement or on the top shelf of the pantry closet.

GITTI BRUNNER

FAMILY SIZE: 6 kids; 4 at home, 2 married

AVERAGE BILL AT COSTCO: $450

What do you buy exclusively at Costco?

Garbage bags, 9x13-inch foil pans, Kirkland detergent pods, water bottles, shelled pistachios. If we run low on any of these items, a Costco run is an emergency.

Five things that are always on our Costco list are…

Tissues, water bottles, walnuts, grape juice and hot cups.

An interesting item I’ve picked up at Costco is… A nutribullet. After we bought it, we were obsessed with smoothies for a while, until it broke a few years later.

Another interesting thing we found — and didn’t purchase! We said shelo asani goy instead — was octopus meat. It was a whole octopus, packaged in plastic, and it was all my kids could talk about for a while.

We store our Costco purchases… We store some items upstairs in the hall closet, and some in the garage.

A tip for shopping at Costco… Beware of produce from Eretz Yisoel. Those fruits and vegetables can only be eaten if terumos and maasros were taken.

CHAYA GRAUS

FAMILY SIZE:

AVERAGE BILL AT COSTCO: The orders magically add up; I guess metzias accumulate.

What do you buy exclusively at Costco? Detergent and flushable wipes.

Five things that are always on our Costco list are… Bounty, Tide, Downy, Honey Nut Cheerios and shampoo. I used to buy fresh strawberries from there, but since the bug-checking issue came up, I’ve stopped. Their nuts are also incredibly fresh.

Interesting items I’ve picked up at Costco are… I bought some fantastic Purim costumes there, and I’ve had great success with their swimwear; they sell great Speedo bathing suits.

We store our Costco purchases… We stock some items upstairs, but the bulk gets stored downstairs — yes, I certainly get my exercise that way!

A tip for shopping at Costco… It’s wise to plan your trips. I passed this morning at 8:15, when the doors only open at 8:30 a.m., and there was already a line from the door to the corner.

EFT's (Emotional Freedom Technique) gentle tapping techniques can help release emotional blocks, creating new pathways to healing and freedom. Unlike cognitive approaches, this powerful somatic and emotional-based method gets to the root of stored trauma, thus releasing it so you can function better in your day-to-day life. If you feel stuck in grief, trauma, or loss or struggle with emotional eating - EFT can offer insight and help guide your way.

SURY GLUCK

What do you buy exclusively at Costco?

Parchment paper, paper towels, Motrin, Kirkland detergent and K-cups for the Keurig — those are essential!

Five things that are always on our Costco list are…

Water, water bottles, a box of Gushers (yes, I have a sweet tooth), grapes and eggs. The price for two dozen eggs at Costco is $8 to $9, and they’ll likely stay on my Costco essentials list for a while.

Interesting items I’ve picked up at Costco are…

I treated my girls to rocking/foldable traveling chairs, which were a popular hit in camp. I also got an air fryer and my famous cookie jars, which are permanent fixtures on my counter.

We store our Costco purchases…

Our Pesach kitchen, which is off our regular kitchen, serves as a great storage closet. The attic is also a great place for bulk items.

ON STOWING AND STORING

The art of being a Costco shopper lies in storage. How can one effectively categorize and organize all those bulk buying treasures? Hear from organizer Charny Brodt of Dott.org on how to excel at the game of “Costco Tetris.”

Regardless of your available storage space, Charny advises to always shop with a list. If lists aren’t your thing, consider taking photos of your current inventory to identify what you need, preventing overbuying.

For those fortunate enough to have a dedicated Costco closet:

Divide your closet into zones, creating separate categories for toiletries, food and paper goods.

Arrange your purchases based on priority. For example, keep cups, plastic cutlery and plates at accessible eye level, while napkins and tissues can be placed on higher shelves.

Store cases of water and juice on lower shelves. You can remove them from their boxes and line them up to create a neater and more spacious appearance. If space is limited, stack the cases for a symmetrical look, placing frequently used items on top for easy access.

If storage is tight:

Avoid over-shopping. Instead, make more frequent shopping trips as your supplies dwindle.

Look for a spot in your home for a freestanding closet to store your purchases in a functional and smart way.

If that’s not feasible, ensure your Costco items are placed appropriately from the start. For example, divide toiletries between the bathrooms, and place pantry items directly on pantry shelves.

An additional useful strategy is to create an “Overstock/Miscellaneous Bin” for your extras. However, avoid placing this in a primary area where you need to access everyday items; keep it higher up or in a less accessible spot.

My bills are never under $300. It’s a very buying atmosphere, with everything being sold in bulk, leading to larger purchases.

What do you buy exclusively at Costco?

Panasonic cordless phones, batteries, garbage bags and laundry detergent.

Five things that are always on our Costco list are… Shredded cheese, fruits, water, toilet paper, Drizzilicious, and now, of course, eggs.

What do you buy exclusively at Costco?

Diapers, wipes, tissues, toilet paper, paper towel and gloves, which are perfect for sensitive skin.

Five things that are always on our Costco list are…

Meal Mart chicken nuggets top the list. Yes, they come in huge bags, but those are the suppers my kids actually eat, and they take only fifteen minutes to prepare in the Betty Crocker.

Cherry tomatoes, mini cucumbers, water and cereal are also staples.

Eggs would be on my Costco list, too, if I got there early enough!

Interesting items I’ve picked up at Costco are… Replacement windshield wipers and Aquaphor cream. The price of a big container of cream is incomparable, even to stores like Target and Walmart. Their towels are also high quality.

We store our Costco purchases…

We have an upstairs closet where we clear two shelves for tissues, toilet paper and paper towels, while bulk items are stored in the garage.

A tip for shopping at Costco… Costco has become really strict about ID cards. I once went shopping with a toddler, two kids and an overstuffed wagon, only to be stopped because I was using my husband’s ID instead of my own. There went my shopping trip. It was a humbling experience.

Interesting items I’ve picked up at Costco are… I bought three weekday tops there a while ago, and even if they’re out of style now, I still wear them as house tops since they’re so comfortable. My super absorbent rainy-day rug and my watch are also from Costco.

We store our Costco purchases… I keep my purchases in the basement, where we have a large closet nicknamed “the Costco closet.”

A Costco drawback:

Finding parking can be quite a challenge, and the checkout lines often extend out the door. They’ve also implemented more rules regarding their return policy. However, shopping at Costco remains very convenient, and you’ll still find me there.

Driving on the road is usually a pretty uneventful affair, but every now and then, a fantastic disaster makes the journey a bit more interesting.

We all hate driving next to trucks on the highway, trying not to think too hard about what would happen if it the truck would topple over, and not to get dizzy by the illusion that makes it feel like you’re suddenly moving backward, but the trucks we pass on the highway can sometimes be carrying rather unique cargo. And what happens when some of these trucks are inevitably involved in accidents? Well…

IDY PERL

CHOOSE YOUR SAUCE

Do you prefer your pasta with tomato sauce or white sauce? Well, two truck spills only a day apart might give you a new perspective on this very serious and delicious dilemma.

On August 29, 2022, a truck carrying tomatoes was involved in a chain reaction accident on the I-80 in Vacaville, California. The thousands of tomatoes created a rather slippery situation on several of the highway lanes, and traffic was closed down for a couple of hours while crews worked to clean it up.

Only a day later, in a different part of the country, another saucy disaster occurred. A truck on the I-55 in Memphis, Tennessee, crashed into a wall and spilled delicious alfredo sauce all over the road. The accident happened at around 4:45 p.m., and cleanup lasted until late into the night.

People jokingly wondered if pasta sauce companies had launched a war and warned truckers carrying pesto sauce to quickly get off the road before they got pulled into the fray.

HEY! IT’S HAY!

In November 2022, motorists on the I-91 in Hartford, Connecticut, were met with quite the scene when a truck carrying bales of hay overturned and spilled all over the highway.

Police agencies had a heyday (pun very much intended) posting about it on social media, with the Connecticut State Police posting, “We’re going to ‘make hay’ with this post. Soon, this situation will be ‘baled’ out.” Not to be outdone, the local police posted, “So, hay, we ask everyone to allow crews to clean up this impromptu hayfield. Please, do not bring livestock to the ramp for a grazing lunch.”

MONKEY BUSINESS

The last thing motorists in Pennsylvania expected to see on the road were monkeys, but in January of 2022, that’s exactly what they found.

A trailer carrying 100 cynomolgus monkeys, small and very expensive monkeys used for medical research, collided with a dump truck on the highway, causing the crates of monkeys to spill across the road. Four of the monkeys got loose, and a wild goose-monkey chase took place as crew members tried to catch them. Local police issued a warning to residents not to attempt to catch the monkeys, and to let the authorities know if they were spotted. Eventually, all the monkeys were accounted for, and they were able to continue their journey.

GOATS AND SHEEP

Monkeys aren’t the only animals that have gone loose on the highway. On September 19, 2021, a truck carrying goats and sheep (who would’ve thought so many animals are traveling on the highway?) overturned in Normal, Illinois. Tens of goats and sheep fled the truck and were seen excitedly running up and down the highway, and nearby farmers and animal hospital staff came out to help coral the animals back into the truck. Thankfully, the livestock were all found and brought back to the trailer without sustaining any injuries.

CHOCOLATE-DIPPED HIGHWAY

Chocolate is one of those things that’s good on practically everything: pretzels, fruit, ice cream, cake — the options are endless. On a road, however… not so yummy.

A massive chocolate spill occurred in Poland on May 9, 2018, when a truck carrying hot liquid chocolate spilled its contents across six lanes of highway traffic. The chocolate quickly started cooling off and hardening on the pavement, making cleanup quite a challenge.

DRIVING ON THE INFLUENCE

Don’t drink and drive… but what if the drink is all over the road?

Just a few weeks ago, on February 16, a semi-truck carrying a large amount of beer overturned onto the median on a Florida highway near Tampa when the driver attempted to exit into a rest area. State troopers were dispatched to assist the driver and clean up the mess. Authorities at the scene said that over 44,000 pounds of beer had to be cleaned up.

CRACKS ON THE PAVEMENT

Recent bird flu outbreaks and inflation have put eggs high up on the list of expensive staples. As if the shortage wasn’t bad enough, a whole truckload of them were recently ruined in a very unfortunate accident.

In what is perhaps the most expensive truck spill, at least in the current market, an egg delivery truck carrying this extremely precious and fragile cargo crashed into a wall on the freeway near East Los Angeles on February 3, 2025. The crash caused many precious eggs to crack, covering the road in egg yolks and shell debris.

Next time you’re on the road, keep an extra eye on the trucks you pass along the way, and say a little tefillah that they should keep their cargo safely inside. You don’t want to find yourself driving through a puddle of dried chocolate!

Meshers

I don’t mind washing dishes (though I do like procrastinating the task or, better yet, delegating it), but what I really dislike is dealing with food residue. I find it especially messy to clean strainers that have become super attached to little pieces of no-longer-edibles. These strainer filters stretch to easily slip onto strainers, where they stay put. Once in place, they catch all the little bits of food, after which they can simply be discarded. I also use it when I want to discard something like soup that is part liquid and part solid. Liquid goes down the drain, and the rest is collected in the mesher, which gets slipped off and dumped.

HOW

NIFTY!

It’s tough not to love this stuff

SHEVY HOLLANDER

It’s the time of year that we are super focused on our homes, the running of it, and the stuff we have accumulated in its confines.

Now may not be the ideal time to acquire stuff we don’t absolutely have to have, but maybe the new space this year’s Pesach purge has made available, there’s room to make life a little more practical.

Regardless, who can resist reading about the creativity and ingenuity of fellow humans?

Scooter Luggage

Traveling with kids is an idea so daunting, I have done it only in moderation and when absolutely necessary. But if you’re someone who does so more often, whether it’s by obligation or by choice, these suitcases that convert into scooters are great travel companions.

With these scooters, kids can scoot down the airport hallways while carrying their luggage, making the transport of all that baggage, and all the kids, that much easier.

Just ask my sister, the owner of several of these suitcases, who’s also a lot braver than I am.

Toy and Dirt Vacuum

One evening some years ago, I was sitting on the playroom floor, sorting a day’s worth of toys into their designated containers. As my arms and eyelids grew heavier and heavier, I fantasized about a vacuum device with differently sized holes, each one sucking in another type of toy into its compartment.

Now, I’ll admit my fantasy was a little more effective, but when I came across this toy vacuum, I couldn’t believe that someone had picked my brain. This vacuum is designed to pick up little toys (if your kids are into Lego, you know why this is super helpful), and it separates the toys from the dust and the dirt.

I haven’t tried it yet, but it’s on my wishlist.

Flat Water Bottle

While in theory I love cool water bottles and all things hip and hydrating, I prefer my water bottles (and especially the straws) disposable. But if I’d go with something that needs care and cleaning, I’d choose this flat version for on the go. It fits so beautifully into a bag or purse without bulging, and it’s kind of suave-looking, too!

Spice Carousel

When I moved into my current home, I splurged on a home organizer until the first two rooms were done. That’s when the project was “put on hold” so the coffers could get a chance to be refilled. A few years have passed since then, and the kitchen I had such high hopes for is functional but not optimized.

For some reason, the spices landed in a deep, narrow cabinet too far from the cooking area, which meant cooking always involved a scramble and a hunt to find the spices I needed.

When I came across this spice organizer, the fondness I had for it was instant — so much so that it even got toveled within 24 hours of purchase. In my home, that says a lot.

Even though this carousel only comes with four-ounce jars, it works for me. I keep it on the counter and feel so posh cooking!

Soda Can Lids

Surely I’m not the only one who finds myself en route with an open soda can that a kid absolutely wants to save and wonder why I ever did something so thoughtless as bringing along something that has no way of being closed again. And open soda cans, well, we all know what they do.

These lids easily convert soda cans into bottles, making them both portable and protected. (If you remember to bring them along, that is.)

Battery Organizer

For anyone who can get their hands on batteries only when they don’t need them, this is a great way to catch all those stray batteries. The batteries are stored by size so you can keep an eye on your stock, and a battery tester is included to ensure that you’re only keeping batteries that still have juice.

Did I try it? Not yet. Will I? I hope to by the time this article is in print.

Portable Water Heater

Coffee on the go? Absolutely! I became friends with this small yet mighty piece of equipment when I recently traveled and didn’t have a kosher kitchen close enough to my lodgings to keep me feeling secure about my access to coffee.

This immersive liquid heater is just a few inches tall and boils a cup of water (or any liquid) in under two minutes. And what’s interesting is that it’s been around for years. How did I not know about this product in the days I’d lug around instant hot water kettles for baby formula bottles on the go? Well, now we all know!

PESACH CLEANING WITH JOY

PROGRAM SPONSORS:

Week 4: April 6 – 10 Kitchen, Part 2

We’re back! Time to roll up our sleeves and tackle some of the busiest rooms in the house.

My husband always says that anything that happens before Rosh Chodesh has no connection to Pesach. He’s probably right, but there may be a piece he’s missing. For me, Pesach prep provides the perfect opportunity to prove my balebusta prowess.

Nonetheless, I learned a lesson five years ago. Remember Covid?

That year, many of us learned to humbly welcome Pesach k’halacha, without all the extras that make our homes feel so clean and fresh. Pride aside, we were happy when Yom Tov arrived, despite some dropped balls.

BAILA GOLDMAN

1 WEEK 2 WEEK 3 WEEK 4 WEEK 5

If you’ve made Pesach as many times as I have, baruch Hashem, you’ve probably come across some years when it was clearly ratzon Hashem for more balls to be dropped than you usually like. Wedding, new baby, a move to a new home… If this year is that kind of year for you, forget the stress. Accept a chametz-free, 100% mehudar Pesach, sans organized toy closet, graciously!

The very first year I made Pesach, we welcomed a new baby one week before Yom Tov. An adam gadol my husband spoke to at the time made a comment that still rings in my ears as I draft my to-do list every year: “Making Pesach is not the bear they make it out to be…”

It gave me the freedom of choice: to choose to do whatever I could, and to choose to be okay with less than usual.

So, let’s get started!

Join me in the playroom.

READY FOR SOME INSPO?

I love cleaning to music; it makes things go that much quicker. Sometimes I also find a friend or sister to schmooze with while I scrub my stuff. Otherwise, I enjoy using the time to listen to a good shiur that puts me in Yom Tov mode and reminds me why we’re actually doing all this.

Take advantage of any quiet you have as long as the kids are in school, and get the most out of every moment!

If your house is like mine, then on a good day, when you walk into the playroom, there are several toys (read: 75% of the toy closet) scattered across the room.

PLAYROOM

But did you notice that most of the toys are just there but aren’t actually being enjoyed?

Kids inevitably gravitate to the same few sets of toys — think Magna-Tiles, Clics, mentchies. The specialty toys my kids got as Chanukah gifts or for afikomen, on the other hand, get taken down for play but don’t really get so much attention. So one year, I did an experiment. I removed all those toys and placed them in the back of a high, hard-to-reach shelf, and only brought them out on special occasions. It worked! Less mess, more interest.

I spoke with several experienced moms who shared the top ten toys that are actually worth stocking in your playroom’s accessible space:

Magna-Tiles

Clics

DUPLO and LEGO

Mentchies and furniture

Playmobil

Cars

Dolls, doll accessories, toy food

Dress-up clothes

Books

Puzzles and games, for older kids

This year, consider keeping your kids’ favorite, wellused toys handy, and put aside (or give away) all the rest. You’ll get less clutter in your closet and a neater play area.

(I do keep a handful of “extra” toys on lower shelves, and rotate each year when I reorganize for Pesach.)

PRO-TIP

When buying new toys, get more of the same — more quantity of your kids’ favorite toys, rather than smaller sets of a variety of toys. The kids will be thrilled with an expanded Magn-Tiles set, for instance. (Especially if you’re a Bubby! Your grandkids will love your playroom, and make space by gifting your kids with some of their old toys.)

Toys

Cleaning toys usually involves little helpers. Use damp shmattes for effective cleaning that’s also safe for children. Here are some tips on how to clean toys.

MAGNA-TILES MENTCHIES TOY FURNITURE CARS/TRUCKS

Mix mild soap with warm water.

Dip a shmatte inside and wring, leaving it damp.

Carefully wipe down each toy. This will remove oil and dirt, while keeping water out of these toys.

PRO TIP: For greater shine, use dishwashing soap in your warm water solution.

CLICS

TOY FOOD, DISHES DUPLO

Spread a towel on the floor.

Prepare one bowl with diluted soap, and a second bowl with warm water. Dip each toy piece into the soap, then into the water, and then leave on the towel to dry.

Before you start, remove any toy pieces that have tiny holes that can trap water, and use the damp shmatte method instead.

PRO TIP: Do this inside the bathtub! Spill some soap into a bath full of warm water, stir the toys around inside, and transfer it all to a towel when done. The dirty water will speak for itself.

BOOKS, GAMES AND PUZZLES

To me, cleaning the books is more of an organizing job — one I look forward to all year long!

Tape loose pages back inside books that are still in good-enough condition. Relegate those that have lost too many pages to the garbage pile.

Wipe cardboard books with a damp shmatte. (Especially important if you use them as a baby-feeding tool!)

I keep old magazines in file holders. When these get full, it’s a sign that it’s time to dump them or pass them on.

Adult books that you’ll never read again, but may be enjoyed by others, can be donated to a local library or given to your bookworm friend.

Games are a sore spot in my closet. Taped-up boxes of all shapes and sizes make it hard to keep a neat games shelf. One day, I hope to invest in uniform plastic game boxes.

DOLLS

Place dolls and stuffed animals in a mesh bag.

Cushion the load by washing along with towels or soft doll clothes.

Use a gentle cycle, with cold water only. Stuffed animals and doll clothes can go in the dryer, but keep those plastic dolls out!

Use a slightly damp shmatte to wipe down game boards and the insides of the game boxes.

Store little game pieces in Ziploc bags inside each box.

Sort boxes by size and/or by popularity and how often you pull them out.

When it comes to puzzles, first make sure they aren’t missing any pieces. Only keep puzzles that have all of their pieces. Then do the same as you did with the game boxes. Use a slightly damp shmatte to wipe out the insides of the boxes.

CRAFTS

The craft shelf! In our creative home, this means an assortment of things that may one day come to good use in some kind of project. When it comes to keeping these neat, it’s all about good storage. If something cannot be contained easily, get rid of it!

Designate a box (or more) for odds and ends. Sort in Ziploc bags inside.

Craft kits that are missing parts or are too boring to take out should go the way of overly-torn books.

Play-Doh, kinetic sand, or other crafts that may contain chametz — either in its ingredients or by being played with — should be placed in a cabinet or closet that will be sold with the chametz.

Bathroom and bleach. Ahh, the smell of a deep clean!

VANITY

Get rid of expired medications and any other toiletries that are simply taking up space.

If you’ll be selling the entire vanity, remove what you’ll need over Yom Tov. Otherwise, remove only the things you want to sell with the chametz

Check items you’ll want to use on Yom Tov to make sure they’re kosher for Pesach.

GROUT

Black or rusty stains are plain ugly. Here are some ways to get your grout looking clean and new!

Household bleach. This will clean and sterilize your grout. Don’t overuse bleach, though, as it can damage the grout.

Grout pens. These are affordable, easy and don’t involve any scrubbing. However, it’s more of a cover-up than a stain remover.

Steam cleaner with grout attachment. This means chemical-free cleaning!

DIY solution: Mix 1 tablespoon dishwashing soap, ½ cup baking soda, and ¼ cup hydrogen peroxide. Apply the solution to the grout, and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Scrub clean with a brush and rinse.

Toothpaste. Dab a dollop onto grout, let sit for several hours, and wash off.

PRO TIP: Test on a small area when trying something new. Methods may work differently on different surfaces.

SHOWER/TUB

Do you need all those soaps and shampoos? If you’re a soap-hoarder, try cutting your supply of bottles in the tub area.

If you have a hanging shower curtain, remove and wash in the wash machine.

BATHROOM

LAUNDRY ROOM

Get your vacuum cleaner ready; this might just be the dustiest room in your house.

LAUNDRY BASKETS/HAMPERS

Vacuum in, around and under your laundry baskets and hampers.

DETERGENTS AND SOAPS

Take a look at your detergents and cleaning supplies stock. Any empty bottles? Unused brands? Toss! Organize those you’d like to keep. Wipe shelves dry before replacing.

DRYING RACKS, SHELVES

Wipe clean. This is a great time to get rid of the stray sock that somehow never met its pair and has been hanging around ever since.

DRYER

Clean the filter well.

WASHING MACHINE

Black stains on the gasket? It’s always best to keep the washing machine door open when not in use. But even so, you may be disappointed with the mold that somehow creeps inside.

Here some natural hacks:

Use 1 part vinegar to 4 parts water. Gently scrub off the mold. Rinse and dry.

Create a paste of lemon juice and salt. Apply and scrub well.

Mix good old dishwashing soap and water, and wipe liberally over the gasket. Make sure to run an empty cycle before using the machine again!

If you want to avoid scrubbing, you can try running a hot cycle with vinegar and water in the detergent dispenser. An appliance repairman once suggested I use lemon salt in the dispenser on an empty cycle.

Things are finally falling into place! Next week, we’ll be starting the kitchen and dining room. See you there!

TATTE! WHAT? WHY?!

TATTE! MISHA! I FINALLY FOUND YOU! BUT WHAT CAN I DO TO SAVE YOU?

JEWISH LIFE COMES FIRST. AND BESIDES, WHAT GOOD IS A TREASURE IF WE’RE TRAPPED IN HERE? THERE’S NO OTHER WAY OUT. WE’LL HAVE TO OPEN IT AT SOME POINT ANYWAY.

WAIT… WHAT’S THAT?

MISHA, OPEN THE GATE.

SMART CHOICE, KID.

RECAP: WHILE ESCAPING FROM A JAGUAR, THE RUBINOVS RUN INTO A HOUSE THEY FIND AND SLAM THE GATE SHUT. INSIDE, THEY FIND THE TREASURE! BUT THEN PEDRO SHOWS UP AND DEMANDS THAT THEY OPEN THE GATE.

THIS… IT LOOKS FAMILIAR SOMEHOW… WHERE HAVE I SEEN THIS WRITING BEFORE?

OH, WELL, IT DOESN’T MATTER NOW. HAND OVER THE TREASURE CHEST.

MICHAEL! MATISYAHU! COME OUT. I’M TAKING YOU HOME.

AND YOU — YOU’RE STAYING HERE TO ROT.

HEY! DON’T STEP ON THE BLACK TILES! THEY’RE SINKING!

WHO WOULD’VE THOUGHT THAT AFTER ALL THE TROUBLE THE RUBINOVS CAUSED ME, THEY’D ACTUALLY BE USEFUL SOMEDAY.

HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!

PIETRO WILL SEAL THE ENTRANCE WITH EXPLOSIVES. DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT ESCAPING. LET’S SEE HOW YOU LIKE BEING LOCKED UP.

TATTE! THE CEILING IS SHAKING! IT REALLY WAS A TRAP!

BITS OF WITS

SHEVY HOLLANDER

A LITTLE BIT OF SCIENCE WONDER

A 40-year-old Australian man is the first person to have been discharged from the hospital with an artificial titanium heart. It was implanted in November 2024. He lived with it for 100 days and then returned for a transplant when a heart became available for him. The first implant of the BiVACOR heart took place in the U.S. in the Texas Heart Institute in July 2024 when a 57-year-old man received the first titanium heart implant as a temporary solution while awaiting a donor. Since then, four more patients received their artificial hearts in Texas, but none of them left the hospital with it. While these hearts are now a temporary life-saving solution, doctors believe they have the potential to serve as permanent heart replacements in the future.

THE CHANGING FACE OF:

The first stretch limousine, often called a “big band bus,” is created by the Armbruster coach company in Fort Smith, Arkansas. The vehicle was designed to transport big band musicians and their equipment.

The common advice to drink eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day has no scientific evidence to support it. Water needs are individual and can vary based on a given person’s activity level, climate and overall health. A person should listen to their body, drink when they’re thirsty and focus on staying hydrated. There is no specific amount that is ideal across the board.
