Hey marrieds when you go to your parents or in-laws for Pesach are you gonna just sit around the table like kings and queens while your parents and single siblings do all the work or will you chip in ?

Echad hamarbeh, v’echad hamam’it…

In any event, I couldn’t imagine not helping — and not just by my parents. Whenever we go out to eat by someone’s house, Eeees and I are always asking the host/hostess if we can be of help.

So when they ask me to share the burden I accuse them of trying to shmad me by taking me away from the beis medrash and placing me in such a bad atmosphere (the kitchen). Then when it comes time to enjoy the results I don’t thank them for doing the preparations; in fact I say that they should be thanking me because it was really my Torah learning that did it.
