Daas Yachid- if it were even a chashash of true chametz chassidim wouldn’t eat it on the last day. As far as dishes that fall on the floor, the reason people don’t reuse that is because people can possibly track in chometz with their shoes and make the floor chametzdig. How can you wash a spoon that fell on a possibly chametzdige floor in a pesachdige sink? My family’s solution is to wash it in a sink not typically used for food items (like the laundry sink) being careful not to let it touch the sink while washing it with cold water.

The question here is about dropping off before yomtov (possibly even prepaying) and just picking up on chol hamoed. I don’t see why this should be such a clear no. If the person prepays, and the cleaners clean it before yom tov, the only issue would be potentially maras ayin, no? If you’re wondering why they wouldn’t want to pick it up before yom tov, maybe they just don’t have time to stop by in the busy pre-Pesach season.

For those who have the minhag of saving the challah from hafrashas challah every week to burn with the chometz, here’s a tip. Do not store the challah in aluminum foil or in a plastic bag. Instead, use a paper envelope preferably soaked in oil. That way it won’t absorb any wetness from the freezer and will burn even better. Ideally it should be left out to dry for several hours before freezing. Every year I pass by biyur chametz sites where the challah that was thrown in to burn just got nicely baked and looks quite delicious. Some animals were enjoying it immensely.

I know I’m responding to a really old post, but kosher was asking what happens to the millions of gallons of pig milk. The answer to that is very simple. The millions of piglets in America use it all up. Pigs do not produce much milk, and are also very hard to milk. Therefore, typically, the baby pigs get to stay with the mother until they are ready to eat slop and then the mother no longer produces the milk. The end. There is no large supply of milk that the pig man is looking to get rid of.

It’s going great! I only have three rooms left plus my kitchen! The car I also have to do, but that I’ll do closer to Pesach.

By that logic I vote to swap out green with purple, and switch around the order. Then the adding/removing will be red.

I looked at the quote from Rav Shteinman a little differently. Full quote below:

The rav used this woman as an example of someone who thought she would remarry right after divorcing. It seems like she did not divorce in order to be without him even if it means being alone.

So why don’t you compete and sell black and pink, black and yellow, and best of all black and blue cookies?

Today I decided to be extra makpid in this area, so I made sure to peek at my neighbor’s siddur every now and then and made sure to be just a little bit ahead.

I, due to age discrimination, am ineligible for presidency at the moment. The day I turn 18 though I want to petition Congress to allow any tax paying citizen to run for president.

DaasYochid- to me it looked like Shopping is right- it’s a mixture package where candies can get stuck one to another. I haven’t seen it in real life so I can’t know for sure.

It is actually a big package of little bags of candy (four or five candies per bag) like the type often referred to as snack size

That being said, men have a 5800 year old minhag of creating chumros for their wives (don’t touch the eitz hadaas). The problem is that there’s a real halacha that has to be followed.

I don’t know what the halacha is regarding these fading designs, but Goodnites doesn’t have them.

How about propping up a baby bottle while pushing said baby in a rear facing stroller? It’s so hard to hold the bottle while walking.

We celebrate our love for Hashem several times a year. Celebrating your spouse once a year won’t detract from that.

Ummm… I think right now EMTs do bear in mind in all trauma situations whether there may have been a medical cause. Whether it was a train wreck or a little old lady falling off the curb, there is always that possibility. Are you encouraging EMTs to ease off on that?

I first put on gloves, then check if the scene is safe. I assume the victim has a spinal injury, so I will take spinal precautions. I will assess the patients ABCs and bleeding, and treat anything really urgent. I will perform a rapid extraction,one minute head to toe evaluation, provide oxygen if I did not do so by A and transport. During transport I will do further assessment and treat anything I see.

I had my blood tested, and guess what? I’m somehow immune to measles, mumps, rubella and I forgot what else they tested for. I b”H never had any of these illnesses. If vaccines are worthless, I guess I just magically became immune.

As RebYidd23 mentioned in the past, photos in books and in news stories are meant to be looked at. With money you give a quick glance to make sure you were given the correct amount and that’s it.

I find it very hard to understand how driving a wagon and car can be equated. There are several fundamental differences. Wagon drivers sit outside the vehicle, open to the entire street. They get spattered with mud and clothing gets blown with the wind when driving at high speeds. It was also usually part of the job to take care of the horse as well.

Car drivers sit inside along with the passengers, are protected from wind to the same degree, and don’t generally do dirty work. Early cars needed to be started with a crank on the outside, so that was a tznius concern. Women starting a car was something very noticeable. Cars of today are vastly different.

Sam2- So in your opinion suicide is simply stupid?

ubiquitin- I’m just asking out of curiosity. What would you say to the nurse who does not want her patient who can no longer feed himself to be fed?

From my experience I can tell you that the not feeding of patients applies to patients that are not unconscious as well. I used to volunteer in the hospital, going around the geriatric ward. There were patients who would sit there with untouched meal trays because they were unable to feed themselves. Although most nurses were nice people, many of them did not have the time to feed all of their patients before the trays were collected again. Some patients could even mostly feed themselves, they just needed help opening packages and moving the tray closer to themselves. I did encounter some nurses who did not care about their patients at all. I once alerted a nurse that something was wrong with a patient, and she just laughed me off and stayed at her station. Another thing I learnt from my experience as a volunteer was that bad nurses flip their name tags that you should have to ask them their name.
