Re: [Cz-L] Drei Babes

When I was three years old, a woman who came to visit,
paid me a lot of compliments and no one said "K'nein n'horeh".
Immediately after the woman left, I ran into the kitchen
and to prevent myself from falling, reached out my left hand.
It landed on the door of the large cast oven and was severely burned.
They put my hand in a plate of oil, then they put it in a plate
of raw egg yolks and all the time, they bewailed the fact,
that the woman when she praised me, did not even say: "tfu, tfu".
Moral of the story: Do not place a cast iron stove so it faces the door.
