Billig Is Teier (cheap becomes expensive)
Tzureis Es Gezunterheit (wear them out/tear up your shoes in good health)
Tzi Bislach (slowly)- this is what she'd answer when we'd ask how she was feeling - she would try to be positive

My grandma used to say : To a gitz to a fortz. I think "to" was from Russian, like either ..or. a gitz is a bad guy and a fortz is a fortress? Meaning one bad thing after another?

Grandfather was born at the turn of the last century. Had to quit school to help his support his family. He still quoted Shakespeare. "Nothing in life is good or bad, only thinking makes it so."
