Flatbush, as far as I am concerned, you said nothing out of line. No apologies necessary. I happen to agree with you about moderation. My problem is my hamantashen are SO good, I can never eat them in moderation. I have been known (in the distant past) to remove some from SHALACH MANOS that I have already packed, because I wanted another one. I figured the person I am giving it to, won’t know the difference if I send one or two rather than two or three. We always made the same thing for Purim every year when I was growing up. My mom would make her hamantashen, with all of us little elves helping her, and also a big batch of toll house cookies with chopped walnuts. To this day, the ONLY chocolate chip cookies that I consider to be authentic are the ones made from that original Toll House Morsels recipe (now made with paszkez chocolate chips, because Nestles are milchig.)
