“Torah
Am I the only one who thinks it’s weird and inappropriate that someone’s wife is baking cookies for someone else’s husband?
I don’t think it’s wise because if you tell her that your husband liked her cookies and he knows she made it it’s just not smart especially if this cookie baking happens often. It doesn’t smell right if you know what I mean. I’d put an end to it or just not give your husband the cookies. You are in shonoh rishona don’t give him excuses to compare you to yenems wife.”
Um…so wait…does this mean that one should never invite shabbos guests, or should only invite female shabbos guests? Because otherwise someone’s wife will be cooking/baking for someone else’s husband. I don’t see how a shabbos meal should be any different than a plate of cookies. In fact a shabbos meal is perhaps more intimate because the wife may be directly serving the other husband.
