I shall be taking mine home from the Mikvah tonight. We have an eruv so I am sure the ML won’t mind me bringing my empty jug for the human salty water.

This year my community seder was catered. It was the only way to make sure that the salt water was mehadrin.
Most of us don't trust each other's salt water, so it was the only way to make sure that everyone was happy.

We do not eat anything catered on Pesach. Who knows what they put in that salt water?

We made sure it was Eida Charedi, and that the salt water was carefully supervised. (No Beis Yosef for us!)

Your posts are brilliant,humorous and the laughter gives an extra boost to many imas.
Please keep on coming back! |
Thank you Violet! (love that Yael upgraded to include Ima color when quoted. Makes things so much clearer. Plus the part that says OP under all OP's posts  )
Anyways would love to know who you are, writing such a sweet note, it means a lot to me. The story with me and Imamother is that nowadays I am no longer at my incredibly boooooooring job so I don't have as much free time to spend here. I'm busy building up my business and I remind myself of Ima when I get a notification in my inbox from some long ago thread that was bumped.

A _______ yid (fill in the blank of the sect that you make fun of the most) met his friend walking in the street, shlepping a whole toilet.
Yid 1: What's that for?
Yid 2: Erev Pesach.
Y1: So?
Y2: You don't get a new toilet every Pesach?
Y1: What do you think aluminum foil is for? |
Funny but

All jokes aside, this year I really need the saltwater recipe because I’m actually going to be making the Seder. But when I read through all ten pages, I couldn’t tell which posts were serious and which were just letzanus. So I need a real salt water recipe, with exact amounts and instructions. Remember no chumros this year, and I’m already overwhelmed so please keep it to the fewest ingredients and steps possible.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you!

And remember all those new dishes and pots that you sold to your cleaning lady domestic employee last year bec you couldn't tovel them? I hope she is loyally still with you so you can buy them back and tovel them this year!
(Oh no, is that racist to assume that the handiest non-Jew was your domestic employee? I never know how to keep the proverbial foot out of the mouth anymore : (

For those who have a hard time remembering the recipe, I wrote a little poem to memorize with the steps:
To make saltwater for the seder is a difficult task,
But on Imamother I'm glad I thought to ask.
The steps are not to difficult, as you will soon see
They can be remembered by the letters S A L T.
"S" is for the steps you take to the nearest well
("Sink faucet" works too in a pinch, but be sure not to tell.)
"A" is for the ancient pole you'll need to stir the recipe
("Any spoon" is for lazy women who should hide shamefully.)
"L" is for the lovely white crystals you harvest from the sea
("Lieber's Kosher Salt" can be substituted in dire emergency.)
"T" is for the time you take to mix and whisk and shake
("Trust science" is when you let it dissolve on its own by mistake.)
Once you have your SALT in hand, be sure the water's temp does climb
Then pour in salt, one grain at a time, until it tastes sublime.
Stir and mix and whisk and shake, until the mixture's white
Then let it rest till it turns clear, that's how you know you got it right.
Serve fresh, for this fine recipe does not age like wine
And if it turns out well, remember that the credit's mine.
(And if it flops, IT'S YOUR OWN FAULT for forgetting a line.)
