A specific lesson: in 12th grade, a teacher taught us the concept of "Yemei Ahavah" and Yemei Sinah" (I think from R' Wolbe)
It was extremely validating to learn that that's a real thing - that sometimes I feel great in my Yiddishkeit, close to Hashem, want to daven... and sometimes I'm just not in the mood, but that's normal! And that the yemei ahavah are there to show us what we can do and can feel.

Is there a mitzvah that you feel especially connected to?

Preparing for Shabbos early.

For Shabbos Zachor do you prepare four kugels according to the name Amalek in LH'K?
ע - עפל
מ - מעהל
ל - לאקשן
ק - קארטאפל

No, never heard of that. One kugel is enough for me.

Do you use filters / photoshop before you share a photo of yourself that doesn't look good?

No. I wouldn’t share a photo that doesn’t look good.
Do you like a leap year or is it too long?

Don't really read novels only magazines sometimes.

Amalek kugel, they sell in my grocery one slice layered in one kugel, with all 4 components. I sometimes buy that but honestly it's not so amazing to mix sweet with savory.

Who do you send mm's for?

Read a really engrossing book.

Piano lessons for my daughter
(that was without too much thinking, or asking my husband's opinion)

If you would go back to school and create your own schedule, what would you learn?

That sounds difficult and sometimes scary! Two of my grandchildren did the same when they were toddlers - cried so hard till stopped breathing, turned bluey mauve, lay motionless on the floor.
We had to call Hatzolah twice b/c couldn't get them to "wake up."

Re Amalek kugel: true, savory, sweet, salty, don't taste great in this kugel. I don't think it's for taste. It's a minhag some people have to make this type of layered kugel on Shabbos Zachor, when we hear about eradicating Amalek.

"Dankbar" dear, since you didn't write a Q, I hope you don't mind that I write one instead so that this game can continue.

When you listen to the reading of Parshas Zachor does it make you think of any other "Amalek" you want to eradicate? I'm not referring to a person you dislike ...

Ye now f'sure we have another amalek, Hashem yishmor! This year I am sure people will say it with more kavanah.

What do you do when you rely on cleaning help but they don't arrive?

Depends on my hormone levels and the condition of my house. I suppose I might cry.

Does your cleaning help do the laundry?

Nope. That's one thing I never have her do (when I actually have help - pretty rare!)

What/where do you begin Pesach cleaning?

The kitchen. From after Purim no more baking, so oven can be cleaned and mixer (when I had one. it broke.)
Kitchen cabinets that we're using on Pesach - it is a bit squishy pushing the contents into other cabinets but it's worth it.
Standing freezer.
Everything that is cleaned at that point is covered well and taped down.

Do you use a lot of bleach to clean for Pesach?
