In memory of my parents, Mashiaḥ ben Shlomo and Sara, and for the memory of Ḥatun bat Meʾir
In memory of my parents, Mashiaḥ ben Shlomo and Sara, and for the memory of Ḥatun bat Meʾir
Dedicated to my parents, Cochava and Moshe Shergian (R.I.P). My father was baal torah and my mother a righteous woman.
When Purim arrived we used to make halva by mixing nuts with pistachios. My grandmother used to make plenty and send it to all the children. When I was a boy, we used to play games with nuts. We used to place them in rows, and each child, in turn, used to throw a nut from afar. If that nut touched other nuts, then the child would gain all these nuts and form a pile. There used to be 4 to 5 children playing, taking nuts one by one and throwing them.
