I could sit and listen to this lovely lady tell her stories all day. Makes me miss my bubbie. I can tell why her mother didn't want the other persons cholent, probably because they were concerened that the other families kitchen wasn't as kosher as hers. She also mentioned the dying job of the "shabbos goy" who would do jobs on shabbos for Jews for a small payment during the week. G-d bless this lovely lady x
Cholent is THE soul food. Steeped in history and every families cholent is different, even if two women follow the exact same recipe, it would still be different. My nana's cholent tastes different from mine even though I do it the way she did it, I guess its cos it was made with lots of love.
where is she from? The story that her mother sent her back with the other family's cholent shows you come from a family with Tzaddaikas, who would rather be hungry than knowingly take someone else's food, which would be stealing (even if they weren't going to eat it)
@deagle02 I wanted to ask it as well, so yes: where is she from?
I guess she's (originally) Hungarian, or at least the way she speaks reminds me a lot to most of the English speaking Hungarians... but maybe I'm wrong, so I'm really curious! :)
