Fighting the Focus Battle: A Parent’s Story

Name: Chana W. Child’s age: 11 years old, 5th grade Child’s primary challenge: Focus and attention span

Q. What first concerned you about your child?

My son was extremely distractible, especially in fifth grade. Whenever my husband tried learning with him, his eyes wandered all over, looking everywhere except at the sefer.

He wasn’t always failing—his grades were generally in the 80s, but his rebbeim were complaining—and we knew he had more potential. Even in conversations, he’d jump offtopic all the time, his mind was all over the place.

Q. What did you try to help him focus?

We started with language therapy in second grade, which helped somewhat, but it wasn’t a complete

solution. After a break, we searched for something deeper—and that’s when we found NeuroTechnics.

encouragement from his instructor and seeing his own progress kept him motivated.

He so badly wanted to improve, and seeing the results made all Q. Why did you choose the difference.

NeuroTechnics over other Q. How do you feel now that options?

After speaking with people he’s completed the program? who completed the program, I’m so grateful! It wasn’t I learned that it’s very magic—it took effort—but it comprehensive. It doesn’t just worked. He was almost like a improve focus—it also works new child. He came so far in on coordination, auditory his learning, conversations, and processing, memory, and other social skills. NeuroTechnics skills my son struggled with gave him the tools he was too. I felt this would be the most missing. Now, he can focus— and he feels the difference. As effective solution, and it was. a parent, it’s incredible to watch Q. What progress did you your child gain confidence and succeed. see?

It wasn’t an overnight fix. At first, he still struggled to focus for more than a few minutes.

But after two to three months, we saw real improvement—he followed conversations better, his handwriting improved, and his concentration increasingly strengthened.

Q. Did he enjoy the program?

He sure did. Although it was hard work for him, the

MAKING CENTS

(Re: Advance to Go, Issue 485) I read Naomi Blau’s story about teachers who were paid late, and I felt a sense of outrage — outrage that this is considered typical and acceptable in our communities. On these very same pages, we have an ad by Alan Rosenstock of Tomchei Shabbos, reaching out to teachers and rebbeim who have not been paid their well-deserved salaries and encouraging them to apply for assistance by Tomchei Shabbos.

First of all, is there any other industry in the world where it is considered acceptable to pay employees even one day late?

Second, our teachers and rebbeim earn their money honestly, and by doing avodas hakodesh. How dare we cause them to require tzedakah?

The secretary in the story did her best (which was not really much) to help the rebbeim and teachers get paid as soon as the funds were available. But we need to do better. Our mosdos must be funded better so that such a thing never happens again. This comes before expensive children’s clothing. Before elaborate simchas.

Our rebbeim and morahs are not volunteers, but their work is chesed. They meet their obligations every day, and it is imperative that we prioritize meeting our obligations to them.

(Re: Everyone Works Harder, Issue 485) I’ve been following the discussion about women who teach, women who work outside the school system, and women who don’t work outside the home. I would like to tell the world of working mothers and non-working mothers that both ways are hard. It’s hard to work. It’s hard to teach. It’s hard to be a mother. Life is not meant to be easy.

But it’s all a matter of attitude. If you’re looking to complain, you’ll find something to complain about wherever you are. It doesn’t matter what you do or where you work. If you are looking for a fulfilled life, try to be satisfied and grateful in whatever situation Hashem places you.

(Re: POV, Issue 484) I read the emergency supper hacks with anticipation… and then with disappointment. If I have a very limited amount of time, multiple people to feed, and limited ingredients and supplies, that requires an “emergency supper hack.” But chicken, potatoes and farfel, however simple they are to prepare, won’t be ready in five minutes.

Here are some super simple suppers for those real emergency moments: frozen pizza in the Betty Crocker, or rolls with spreads and sliced fresh vegetables. You can add yogurt or even leben for dessert. Even cereal and milk will fill empty stomachs in a real emergency.

(Re: Color Me Pretty, Issue 484) I noticed that you recently changed the adult Color Me Pretty pages to designs that are more doable and less intricate. Perhaps to accommodate adults’ busy lifestyles? Or maybe those pictures just fit your theme better?

Whatever the reason, please know that it was noticed and appreciated.

Thank you, Henny Dancinger

(Re: Bits of Wits, Issue 472) Your Bits of Wits column, aside from being super interesting and entertaining, made life simpler in one Yiddishe home.

I have a fairly large garbage can in my kitchen, and while we make sure to purchase 18-gallon bags, at one point, the top of these bags began tearing when we’d slip them onto our garbage can. Until I read a “So Random!” piece in Bits of Wits that informed me that most people use their garbage bags inside out! From then on, I slip my bags onto the garbage can the way they were designed to be used — and voila! No more tears.

Thank you to The Monsey View for once again saving the day!

YOUR SAY

CHANGE THE WAY YOU BIRTH

ON FIRE

I want to take a moment to share my positive experience with Matzilei Aish of Rockland. A few days ago, we were concerned when we noticed a strange smell in our home that seemed like an electrical fire hazard.

We reached out to Matzilei Aish, and their response was nothing short of exceptional.

Within two minutes, three members arrived and assessed the situation. They worked efficiently and professionally to ensure that the hazard was eliminated, all while maintaining a calm environment in my home. Their calm and knowledgeable behavior put my wife and kids at ease during what could have been a stressful situation. I realized that not only do they benefit us by responding promptly to calls; they also create a calm experience.

While they were at my home, two more calls came in, and they were able to stay focused and cover all three calls at once.

It’s important to know that we have such a reliable and skilled service in our Monsey community, always ready to serve us when needed. We are incredibly grateful for their help.

A Grateful Local

WHEN SOMEONE IS SICK

You might feel uncomfortable when you meet someone who’s sick. You don’t know what’s going on in her life, or what her thoughts and fears are.

She looks different, and that scares you. You don’t know what will happen if you talk to her. Will you say the wrong thing? Will she cry? Will you have to face her pain?

But is your discomfort a reason to ignore her? She didn’t choose to get sick; Hashem gave her this difficult nisayon, and she’s trying to handle it as well as she can. If you greet her and smile, you help her be strong.

Don’t worry about the things you don’t know. Treat her like a regular human being. You can nod in friendly acknowledgement, greet her with a smile, tell her you’re happy to see her — whatever you might have done if she weren’t sick. That will leave her feeling warmed and uplifted.

CAN YOU SHARE A WINTER COLD REMEDY THAT YOU’VE FOUND REALLY WORKS?

I give my children elderberry syrup, and I find that it really helps get rid of colds and coughs.

My mother always says, “Tehillim, tea and time,” and I’ve added, “Tea biscuits and Mommy-talk-tome time…”

Forever Living’s Heat Lotion doesn’t treat a cold, but it stops the congestion in the nose within seconds.

I highly recommend this $8 tube; it’s a pure lifesaver every winter!

For fever, congestion and cough, put a half onion near the bed at night. It really works! Just make sure to cut the onion with a non-metal knife. Metal somehow removes the healing properties, so use a good quality plastic knife or a ceramic knife. (Some say to put sliced onions in the socks of a baby overnight; the infection gets pulled down and out via the sole of the foot.)

I drink tea with raw honey and ginger.

From everything we’ve tried, good sleep habits rank as number one.

I see the results of both right away: Being overtired leads to feeling rundown and puts our immune systems in a more vulnerable space, whereas going to sleep on time gives us the tools to deal with life and stay healthy — with Hashem’s help!

122

The Monsey View

Whenever I feel like I’m coming down with something, I squeeze a fresh lemon and take it with raw garlic. It works like magic!

For sick adults: 10 mg of singulair at night, 10 mg of zyrtec in the morning, and colloidal silver in the nose for sinus. For children: Panto-C, Panto-C, Panto-C! Improvement is always immediate. Also, use fermented turmeric if there’s congestion in the chest, bronchioles or lungs.

A few drops of liquid vitamin D3 (apply onto any food that children are eating) daily, and especially during a cold, help greatly! Of course, don’t forget to add a tefillah for refuah; that’s the main thing.

Neo synephrine nasal spray works wonders. It doesn’t heal the cold but relieves the congestion within seconds.

I take fresh ginger, cube it in small pieces, put it into a tea and let it sit. I sometimes even eat pieces of the ginger after drinking the tea.

Warm honey vanilla chamomile tea from Celestial Seasonings, with a bit of oat almond milk. Also, keeping my children off yogurt and milk in the wintertime has been a game-changer for me. I find that milk creates extra congestion that causes colds and ear infection.

Whenever I feel my throat getting sore, I quickly start taking Pantomax twice a day for the next period of time until I feel completely better. Thank You, Hashem, for this great remedy!

Hands down, MaxiBiotic.

I’m not a major vitamin-phile but, boy, this thing works magic. If you feel a cold coming on, you can avoid the whole thing entirely by taking the vitamin, and if you’ve already gotten a cold, you will literally get over it in a quarter of the usual time.

When kids are very congested, rub olive oil over their chest right after the bath. It’s the only natural remedy I’ve ever tried, and it really works.

A glass of freshly squeezed orange juice. It’s healthy, refreshing and full of vitamin C!

124

When I start feeling a cold coming up, I drink tons of water (approximately 10 to 12 cups a day). I find that it flushes the cold out of my system within a day or two.

I use a Doterra Breathe essential oil roll-on. A quick roll on soles of feet and across the chest helps clear stuffy noses that don’t let you fall asleep. A vaporizer with eucalyptus oil in room for bad colds and coughs is also excellent.

The number-one remedy for any winter ailment in our house is always onion honey syrup. Take an onion, and pour liberal amounts of raw honey over it.

Let it sit for a minimum of four hours (best is twenty-four hours), remove the onions and voila! You have a cheap and powerful antioxidant and immune booster.

Vitamin C — it works wonders! Take 1,000 mg every two to three hours until you feel better (about 4 rounds).

I find that a bowl of steaming chicken soup truly nourishes the soul and boosts the immune system.

I find that lowering the steam/heat makes the family less likely to get sick.

Dry steam air is not healthy. Rather sleep with a sweater, and lower the heat to 67 degrees (instead of 72).

On a cold day, when the kids are in school, make sure to open windows in different areas in the house to freshen up the air and banish the germs. There’s nothing like Hashem’s fresh air.

When my daughter was coughing really badly at night, her pediatrician told me to give her a spoonful of honey before she goes to bed (obviously after checking that it isn’t a bacterial infection). It acts as a smooth coating on the insides so the mucus could just slide down. I followed the doctor’s instructions, and it really helped. Note: Make sure not to give honey to a baby under one year of age.

For Every New Student That You Bring!!!

For a child who can’t feed or take a pacifier because of a stuffy nose, smear boroleum ointment on their nose. It’s meant for nose soreness but helps clear congestion.

My kids used to get sick every winter from various colds, viruses and flus.

This year, I started giving them two multivitamin jellies along with two vitamin C candies every day in their school snack bag. I was and still am shocked by the difference I see.

No colds, coughs, runny noses or sick days.

Apple cider vinegar in apple cider is a great immune booster. When taken with apple cider, you can hardly taste the vinegar.

PARSHAS YISRO Our Precious Gift

Y. Levenstein

This week, we relive a watershed event that marks the most pivotal point in our history as a nation: Matan Torah. We merited receiving the special treasure that the malachim could only dream of and that separates us from all nations, making us be Hakadosh Baruch Hu’s beloved.

Every morning, we start off our day with Birchas HaTorah, expressing our praise and desire to live, learn and love the Torah. We first say

V’ha’arev Na, begging for the Torah to be sweet for us, and that we should be successful at following in its ways. After that, we say Asher

Bachar Banu, thanking Hashem for gifting us the Torah.

Shouldn’t we first thank Hashem for the grand gift He gave us, and then ask for the siyatta

d’Shmaya to enjoy it?

To explain this in our terms, picture a young man whose grandfather gifts him a large sum of money. The man asks his grandfather, “Please help me invest the money wisely.” Only later does he remember to say, “Oh, and thank you so much for the gift!” This is obviously not the way of the world; first, we show appreciation, and then we can ask any favor or request we might want. So why do we say V’haarev Na before Asher Bachar Banu?

CHAIM TRIED. HE REALLY DID. But he was simply not seeing any success in his learning. His mother decided that if he wasn’t being successful in yeshivah, he should help out with the family income. In the mid-twentieth century, that was a common arrangement. Chaim’s mother was resolute. She would bring him home.

As she walked down the street in the direction of the yeshivah, she met the rebbetzin of Reb Simcha Zissel Shapira of Yeshivas Chevron. After exchanging greetings, Chaim’s mother shared that she was on her way to bring her Chaim’ke home.

“What a shame to take him out of yeshivah!” the rebbetzin exclaimed.

Chaim’s mother explained her view.

“Look, if he isn’t matzliach in his learning, why shouldn’t he help out?” Certainly, his help with parnassah was needed.

“You’re making a big mistake,” the rebbetzin rejoined. “So long as he is in yeshivah, the divrei Torah he hears are piling up on his heart.

One day, his heart will open, and all that Torah will drop inside.”

Chaim’s mother was convinced. She’d allow Chaim to remain in yeshivah.

Despite the challenges, Chaim did not give up. He applied himself to his learning with renewed vigor and soon became into one of the greatest masmidim in the yeshivah. At one point, he began to learn in Yeshivas Mir, and the Rosh Yeshivah, Rav Leizer Yudel Finkel, paired him up with a new bachur who had recently arrived from the United States. Chaim

his parents had gone through until they finally found a yeshivah for him.

There, too, he was the life of the party, spending his days having a great time anywhere but in the Gemara.

One evening, after night seder, he lingered in beis midrash. “To this day, I’m not sure why,” he said. “Even though it wasn’t time to learn, I sat down and opened a Gemara. Suddenly, I sensed a shadow. Someone was looking over my shoulder.”

It was the maggid shiur.

That afternoon, for the first time, one of the top bochurim came over and * * * * * asked to be Yitzy’s chavrusa. Finally, It was a mystery to everyone who Yitzy was actually enjoying yeshivah, knew him. Yitzy, the town troublemak- and he also enjoyed feeling respected er, was engaged to a sought-after girl for his efforts.

“I suddenly felt like I simply love the from a highly respected family. And rumor had it that the new chasan was Gemara!” Yitzy said. “I realized I could preparing to celebrate a siyum HaShas at do this. I could learn, and actually find his chasunah! Everyone wondered how satisfaction in the beis midrash.” such a thing was possible.

Yitzy had earned his reputation for * * * * * trouble from his early years in cheder.

The Dubno Maggid explains: One He was an overactive, noncompliant student who frustrated and baffled his who has never tasted the sweetness and rebbeim.

And who was the young boy from America whom he mentored? He was none other than the future Rosh Yeshivah of Mir, Rav Nosson Tzvi Finkel.

No Child Left Behind

The One and Only

You’ve tried to enroll your child in many different schools.

This year, One-of-a-Kid introduced something Monsey has never had before: a full-day, one-on-one ABA therapy program.

When the topic of ABA comes up, I see a shift in Elisheva.

There’s fire in her eyes, a quiet, unwavering determination.

This isn’t just a program for her; it’s a mission.

“Some parents who are familiar with the ABA modality are apprehensive, and that concern is completely valid,” she says, acknowledging some parents’ mixed feelings about ABA. “The truth is, ABA is only as good as how it’s implemented. In some places, it can feel cold, too focused on compliance, charts and numbers, without enough emphasis on the child’s emotional well-being. And unfortunately, some families feel stuck in

You’ve sat through meetings, filled out paperwork, and answered every question.

And yet, the answer is always the same.

“We can’t accommodate your child.”

“We don’t have the resources for that level of support.”

“Maybe try again next year.”

But your child with ASD can’t wait until next year.

And you know, deep in your gut, that before you can consider sending your child to a school, they need one-on-one support.

Not a teacher with an aide. Not occasional therapy sessions.

Real, full-day, individualized therapy.

And yet, where do you send them?

“So many parents call me in tears, telling me they have nowhere for their child next year,” says ELISHEVA FRIED, CLIENT CARE ADVOCATE AT ONE-OF-A-KID, a program powered by KID’S FIRST THERAPY CENTER. “Their child is five years old and aging out of their special preschool, which can’t accommodate them anymore. Or they’ve been in a preschool that won’t take them back due to developmental challenges. The parents are left scrambling.

Desperate.”

Some have placed their children in schools that aren’t the right fit because they had no choice. Others have kept their child home, sacrificing everything to become full-time caregivers, watching their own lives, their other children, and their mental well-being fall apart in the process.

a system where services don’t match what’s being billed, where their child is shortchanged on the one-on-one support they desperately need.”

She leans forward, her voice steady and sure.

“That’s why One-of-a-Kid is different.

“We put the child before the ABA. But we give the child ABA so they can thrive.”

“Our program is built on warmth, flexibility and genuine care. Yes, we track progress, but we do so in a way that keeps the child’s emotional security at the center. We aren’t just focused on goals; we are focused on who this child is and how they can grow in a way that makes sense for them.”

What the Program Offers: Full-day, one-on-one ABA therapy After-school, one-on-one ABA therapy Integrated occupational therapy (OT) and speech therapy — all in one location A state-of-the-art sensory gym equipped with specialized tools and activities to support development

And perhaps the most groundbreaking part? Your child may be eligible through insurance.

All for One, and One for All Our full-day, one-on-one ABA therapy program doesn’t focus on academics or traditional education. Instead, we provide real, functional life skills that your child needs to navigate the world, communicate and gain independence.

For children on the spectrum who do attend school, getting through the day can feel like running a marathon.

They push themselves to keep up with academics, follow social norms, and suppress their natural responses, striving to fit in.

However, once they get home, all that built-up pressure needs an outlet. Parents often face evenings filled with meltdowns, screaming and frustration as their child struggles to decompress.

This is why one-on-one therapy remains essential, even after school. It provides a structured, supportive space from 3 to 6 p.m. where children can continue working on their skills, reinforcing progress made during the day and preventing regression.

Upon arrival, many children head straight to the sensory gym, where they can self-regulate after a long, overstimulating school day. The dimmed lighting, soothing music, weighted blankets and sensory-friendly equipment create a calming oasis, a stark contrast to the demands of the classroom.

The after-school program is a gentle introduction to One-ofa-Kid’s therapeutic environment for families considering the full-day program.

Oneness At One-of-a-Kid, the philosophy isn’t just a motto. Every child is different. Every child is unique. And that’s precisely how they are treated.

For Elisheva Fried, One-of-a-Kid’s client care advocate, this isn’t just a job. It’s a personal commitment.

“When I sit down with a parent, the most important question is always: What is best for this child?” she says. “Do they thrive in school with after-school support, or would a full-day therapy program provide the foundation they need to eventually transition into a classroom? While we can’t make these decisions for parents, we can guide them, ensuring every choice is made with the child’s unique growth and needs in mind.”

One in a Million “One ten-year-old boy, Mendy*, came to One-of-a-Kid completely dependent on others,” Nechy, the program director, shares. “His mother had to feed him every meal, dress him head to toe, and take him to the bathroom. With other children to care for, she was exhausted.”

But when the One-of-a-Kid team assessed him, they saw untapped potential.

Over time, through consistent ABA therapy and patient, hands-on guidance, he slowly learned the skills he had been missing. First, holding a spoon. Then, feeding himself. Piece by piece, dressing himself.

One-on-one therapy sessions with their BT Hands-on activities tailored to their specific goals Individual learning time to reinforce new skills Sensory regulation breaks as needed

While most of their time is spent in individualized therapy, social development is a significant focus. Two or three times a day, all children come together in the center of the room for group sessions at the shared group table.

Here, they: Practice social skills in a structured environment

Today, he eats on his own and can partially dress himself — skills that once seemed completely out-of-reach for him.

For him, it’s independence.

For his mother, it’s a weight lifted off her shoulders.

This is what happens at One-of-a-Kid every single day.

Leah, who couldn’t entertain herself, constantly needing her mother’s attention or turning the house upside down, now sits with toys and plays independently.

Sarah, who once couldn’t sit still for more than a few seconds, can now focus on fifteen-minute therapy sessions and even wait her turn in a group setting.

“These stories happen daily here, Baruch Hashem,” Nechy says.

WHAT A BREAKTHROUGH!

Apply their individualized learning in a group setting

During these sessions, BTs stand near their assigned child, providing guidance and gentle prompting while allowing the child to navigate social interactions as independently as possible.

This balanced approach, a combination of intensive one-onone therapy and structured group interactions, ensures that every child reaches their behavioral goals and develops essential social and communication skills.

At One-of-a-Kid, every moment is purposeful. Every activity is intentional. And every child is given the tools they need to make real, lasting progress in order to reach long-term goals.

One Size Doesn’t Fit All

One Call Is All It Takes:

Before therapy begins, each child meets with a BOARD CERTIFIED BEHAVIOR ANALYST (BCBA), who creates a customized plan

One-of-a-Kid is designed for children ages two to ten with an ASD diagnosis.

If you believe your child could benefit from our program but are unsure about eligibility or whether it’s the right fit, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’ll guide you through the process, help assess your child’s needs, and connect you with the necessary resources, including referrals for evaluations if needed, to ensure they receive the support they deserve.

based on their specific challenges and goals. This plan outlines clear, achievable steps to help the child develop essential skills, whether in communication, self-regulation, independence or social interaction.

Once the plan is in place, the child is paired with their own dedicated BEHAVIORAL TECHNICIAN (BT), who works with them throughout the day to implement their individualized program.

Each child follows a packed schedule filled with fifteenminute activity blocks designed to maximize focus and engagement. These sessions take place in a shared classroom setting, where each child has their own designated workspace, a small, structured corner within the room, carefully set up to minimize distractions while still allowing for social interaction.

The children are grouped by developmental level, with two groups running the same structured approach. Throughout the day, they rotate through:

Change Ahead in Spring Valley as Simon Decides To Leave Village Hall The winds of change are blowing in Spring Valley, with several sources saying that Mayor Alan Simon will not be seeking reelection this year.

News of Simon’s departure sparked interest in the village.

News 12 reported that within one day of the announcement, the Rockland Board of Elections received multiple inquiries from potential candidates, with six people signing up to speak at a February 13th mayoral forum.

The 81-year-old Simon is a controversial figure, with a long history in government. He has served as a Bronx prosecutor and a Rockland County public defender, and spent more than ten years as the attorney for the Town of Ramapo.

Simon also worked as Ramapo’s building inspector, and sat on the bench as both a Spring Valley judge and a member of the Ramapo Justice Court, before being elected mayor of Spring Valley in 2017.

Spring Valley trustee Yisroel Eisenbach told The Monsey View that the decision was Simon’s own, and that he is looking forward to a fresh start.

“I wish him well in his retirement, and look forward to someone coming to unite the village and be a go-getter for the betterment of all,” said Eisenbach.

Global Entry Pop-Up Coming to New City A pop-up Global Entry enrollment session taking place next month is expected to draw well over 100 Rockland-

ers who want to get expedited customs clearance without lengthy commutes or protracted wait times.

Global Entry can be a real timesaver for those flying internationally, but with the only local enrollment centers located in JFK and Newark airports and often lengthy wait times, signing up for U.S. Customs and Border Patrol’s trusted traveler program isn’t exactly convenient for Monsey residents.

Hoping to make life easier for his constituents, Congressman Mike Lawler has been working with Customs and Border Patrol and the Rockland County Clerk’s office over the last few weeks to arrange two pop-up enrollment centers — one in New City and the other in Yorktown.

Lawler’s office expects to have 200 people signing up for Global Entry at the New City enrollment, which will be taking place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on March 9 at the Rockland County Clerk’s office, located at 1 South Main Street.

Rockland residents hoping to sign up for Global Entry should visit the Customs and Border Patrol website at www. cbp.gov/travel/trusted-traveler-programs and select the New City location to schedule an interview. Interviews can also be scheduled by calling Lawler’s office at 845-201-2060 once applicants have been conditionally approved for Global Entry

by Customs and Border Patrol. No walk-ins will be accepted at the Global Entry pop-up event.

“I’m pleased to have facilitated U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) visits to Rockland and Westchester for Global Entry enrollment events,” Lawler told The Monsey View.

“We look forward to organizing more events like this to serve our community.”

The county clerk’s office will also be processing passport applications at the same time and place. Appointments must be scheduled in advance with the county clerk’s office by calling 845-638-5070.

At Long Last, a Plan for Safety at UnionElm Intersection

Years of discussion, collaboration and planning are starting to pay off in a big way, with multiple safety improvements approved for the accident- and traffic-prone intersection of Union Road and Elm Street.

Safety has long been an issue for both drivers and pedestrians at the Spring Valley intersection where Union Road meets Elm Street at the northern end of Twin Avenue, just yards away from Anthony Drive. The project will include a new traffic light at the corner of Union and Anthony, with a crosswalk and a sidewalk added at the junction of Union and Elm. Two safety islands will also be installed at the corner of Union and Anthony, among other improvements.

The project had been previously approved by the Town of Ramapo, and was green-lighted by the Village of Spring Valley on February 4. Ramapo and Spring Valley will split the cost of the engineering design, a previously conducted traffic study, and the actual construction. Spring Valley expects to be able to use already approved grant funding to cover 90% to 95% of its share of the cost.

Trustee Yisroel Eisenbach told The Monsey View that additional improvements will be implemented to ease traffic and ensure pedestrian safety in Spring Valley. Those plans include eliminating the stop sign and traffic light at the corner of Union and Morris roads, located less than a quarter of a mile away from the new light at Antho-

ny Drive, and posting No Left Turn signs for drivers at the intersection of Union Road and Park Street.

Chuster Rebbe’s Ohel Nears Completion as Yahrtzeit Approaches Chuster chassidim will have a new place to daven as they mark the second yahrtzeit of their rebbe, Harav Shmiel Shmelka Liefer, zt”l, on the 29th day of Shevat.

The construction of an ohel over the Chuster Rebbe’s tzion is currently underway at the Har Shalom Beis Hachaim in Airmont. It is expected to be completed in time for the Rebbe’s yahrtzeit, which falls out this year on February 27.

Clean Up Your Act Instead of Taxing Motorists, Rockland Exec Tells MTA One month after congestion pricing became a reality in New York City, Rockland County’s Ed Day is firing back at the Metropolitan Transportation Agency for levying a hefty toll on motorists instead of rectifying its own shortcomings.

A February 3 statement issued by Day slammed the MTA for financial mismanagement, with the agency failing to collect on $5.1 billion in unpaid tolls and violations since 2021, on top of $700 million lost each year to fare evasion.

“Rather than enforcing existing laws and properly managing its budget, the MTA is pushing a punishing congestion pricing scheme to squeeze even more money out of New Yorkers who are already struggling under the weight of skyrocketing inflation,” said Day. Day categorized congestion pricing as an effort by the MTA to fill budget holes created by its own failures. He noted that if the agency had invested the same effort into collecting the monies owed to it, it wouldn’t have needed to implement a $9 toll to cross south of 60th Street into Manhattan’s central business district.

“Enough is enough,” said Day. “The MTA needs to fix its own house before forcing more financial burdens on the people who actually pay their fares and tolls. Rockland County residents deserve better; in fact all New Yorkers do, and I will continue to stand against this unjust congestion pricing plan.”

Day wasn’t the only upstate elected official to express frustration with the MTA. Senator James Skoufis introduced legislation last week to sever Orange County’s relationship with the agency, saying that his constituents fund the MTA through payroll taxes and other fees, but receive the barest minimum of service in return. Skoufis slammed the MTA for treating Orange County residents like “an ATM,” and for taxing them “on everything short of the oxygen we breathe.”

More License Plate Readers Coming to Rockland New license plate readers will be coming to Rockland, with County Executive Ed Day and Sheriff Louis Falco approving $116,000 in additional funding for the devices.

The new license plate readers will be installed in high traffic volume areas, as well as entrance and exit points on Rockland roads. The county already installed 42 license plate readers at key locations in December 2022.

According to Police Chief Magazine, an estimated two-thirds of large law enforcement agencies in the United States, as well as many smaller ones, use license plate readers. The technology has 154

been linked to an increase in arrests, as well as the recovery of stolen vehicles.

License plate readers were credited with the quick apprehension of Grafton Thomas in the deadly Chanukah machete attack a few years ago in the Forshay home of Rabbi Leibish Rottenberg.

A witness who saw Thomas leaving the scene gave his license plate information over to police. Thomas was arrested a short time later after his vehicle was flagged by a license plate reader at the George Washington Bridge.

Still, not everyone is in favor of the technology. The American Civil Liberties Union has been calling for legislation to prevent the use of license plate readers, calling them an invasion of personal privacy.

Retired Crayola Favorites Return in Limited Run Fan favorite colors that were phased out of Crayola’s iconic yellow and green crayon boxes are coming back for a limited time, with the company responding to heartfelt requests from consumers.

The return of the eight colors marks the first time that Crayola has brought back retired hues since it debuted its first box of crayons in 1903. The limited edition box will be available throughout 2025 and will feature Dandelion (retired in 2017); Blizzard Blue, Magic Mint and Mulberry (retired in 2003); as well as Orange Red, Violet Blue, Lemon Yellow and Raw Umber (retired in 1990).

Crayola is also releasing the same colors in limited edition colored pencil, marker packs, activity kits and coloring books, and has plans for other similar collections.

Crayola chief marketing officer Victoria Lozano said that the company is excited about the opportunity to help kids use their imagination.

“Color has such a personal connection for kids of all ages,” said Lozano.

“It plays a pivotal role in inspiring creativity, which is an integral catalyst for educational, emotional and cognitive growth. At Crayola, we celebrate the enduring value of childhood creativity to help kids reach their full potential, and we look forward to seeing the Limited Edition colors inspire even more creative moments for our fans.”

aily staggered to the rocking chair, her feet too weak to hold her.

Her mother was starting to forget. That’s what this must be all about. Confusion, disorientation — it was only to be expected. There was no way Perela really took a job. Unless the entire world was conspiring against her. First Mira, now Perela…

“She didn’t tell you she got this fancy job?” her mother continued blithely. “I told her I’d tell you, but I thought you two had discussed it.”

Kaily’s stomach clenched. Perela had not taken a job.

It made no sense.

“What job?” she sputtered.

“Some kind of clothing store. The owner, she realized Perela has taste. And she’s been begging her to become her consultant.”

“I see,” Kaily said. Perela was still Perela. Six kids and thirteen years of marriage, and she still had her mother wrapped around her pinky.

The nerve. Making her mother do the dirty work.

“How long has this been going on for?” She rocked the chair extra hard.

“She started a few weeks ago, unofficially.

After Yom Tov, she’s really starting.”

Really starting. Aha. She stared at her mother. Her mother, who

couldn’t so much as get herself a cup of water.

“And Ezriel is okay with this?” she asked desperately.

She couldn’t imagine Ezriel liking this plan. He always took such pride in providing for his family. She clearly remembered him proudly announcing that Perela had given up her job because it was time for him to take responsibility.

She still remembered how she’d felt then. More alone than words could ever describe. There was no one to offer to take any responsibility for her life. It was only her and her struggle to raise and support her three boys.

And now, precisely when Kaily needed Perela most, she’d taken a job. Once again, there was no one helping her carry her responsibility.

Her mother smiled smugly.

“Yup! I made him like it. I told Perela that I’ll talk to him.”

“You?” “I spoke to him — when was it? When he dropped off the food Erev Rosh Hashanah. He’s a good husband, but he doesn’t realize how talented she is.”

Kaily nodded numbly and helped her mother lie down.

The second person in one week to take me for a fool. What am I? Everyone’s convenient doormat.

Apparently at peace, she closed her eyes. * * * * *

“Kinderblast should be gebentsched,” Perela muttered as she handed Charnie another stud art of the same lulav and esrog set.

Who ever heard of kids being off on Erev-Erev Sukkos?

To help their fathers build already-built sukkahs, apparently. In her house, the opposite was happening. A dismantling of epic proportions.

Perela looked around at the chaos. The scene would make a great cover page for a DB Electronics catalog. She had all components: kids bickering, kids hanging sukkah decorations in a way that made her feel like standing there with a safety net, and she herself standing at her counter with stacks of containers, foil pans, and lids all around her.

the food was almost a bigger job than the actual cooking.

Perela sliced a watermelon radish in half and spiraled six slices into the mini pan next to the pecan crusted salmon and placed it in the fridge box. There, the fish was done.

Next, soup. Turkey soup for the day meal and chicken soup for the nights. Half-cooked cholent for Shabbos. She added some sprouts and pea shoots in a deli container for Kaily to sprinkle as a garnish.

Leiby and Yonah tore into the kitchen.

“Ma! We need help hanging the decorations!” Yonah shouted.

“I don’t have anything to do!” Charni whined, holding up the completed stud art.

Desserts. Challos — regular and sourdough. Meats and sides. Put everything in pans, affix lids, label, pack into the box. She could do this, if every child stopped whining now. * * * * *

“Who wants to come with me to deliver the food?” Perela asked when she was finally done.

Of course, everyone pounced on her.

She loaded the car carefully. The box of hot food, the box of frozen food. Don’t forget the box of room temperature food.

But when they all piled out of the car and dropped off the boxes, Kaily didn’t look grateful, or even glad. She looked downright upset to see her.

Come to think of it, Kaily had been like this toward her for a while.

Perela swallowed tears. She’d worked so hard. For Kaily’s guests!

“Mommy’s napping.” Kaily said curtly. “Thanks!”

And just like that, she closed the front door.

I will not cry in front of my kids. But of course she did. So to mask it, she yelled.

“Let’s go!” she shouted. Her kids complained that they

WHEN THEY ALL PILED OUT OF THE CAR AND DROPPED OFF THE BOXES, KAILY DIDN’T LOOK GRATEFUL, OR EVEN GLAD. SHE LOOKED DOWNRIGHT UPSET TO SEE HER “Six meals. Six adults and a toddler,” she said aloud, just to keep her mind focused on the task.

Kaily was hosting Gedalya and his family for the first days and Chaim’s family for the second days, along with Sruly for all of Yom Tov, and Perela was helping her cook.

She’d gone all out; Kaily’s kids didn’t come too often, and she wanted to make it really special.

She had three boxes, one for fridge stuff, one for the freezer, and one room-temperature box. Boy, packing up

wanted to visit Bobby. But Perela herded them home.

It was never enough. She was never enough.

She got home to countertops that were still pink from the watermelon radish and littered with various containers of sauces and spices, and a house that needed a power wash in order to make it Yom Tov’dig.

Finally, Ezriel walked in.

“The rav said my esrog is a real hiddur.” He headed toward the large dining room windows and carefully unwrapped his esrog. He twirled it in the sunlight carefully. “It’s a beautiful color and gidul.”

Perela nodded mutely.

“The sukkah is being dismantled,” she finally said through clenched teeth.

Ezriel nodded absently as he rewrapped the esrog and announced that no one should touch the hadassim in the fridge. “Which shelf, takke, can you clear for my daled minim?”

Perela didn’t reply. She passed the mirror, looked at her makeup-less face which used to be pretty and smiley, and scowled. She gave her life to her family, to her mother and sister, and what did she get for that?

A ragged old woman.

The doorbell rang. Did she still have a chance to dab some makeup on? She couldn’t open the door like this.

She needn’t have worried because the entire Sternberg clan converged at the door and promptly started fighting over who got to open the door. Finally, she shoved the kids away and opened the door herself. No makeup would impress any visitor now anyway, not with the fighting so loud it practically echoed through the street.

A delivery boy was holding an elaborately wrapped package.

“Sternberg?” he asked.

Perela nodded and took the package to the kitchen.

She carefully unwrapped it to reveal a crystal bowl filled with fresh flowers and a genuine Mackenzie-Childs cake tray. There was a typed note attached.

Dear Perela, We hope you’ll enjoy this small token of our heartfelt appreciation for all your hard work.

The Prance Team

SHE CAREFULLY UNWRAPPED IT TO REVEAL A CRYSTAL BOWL FILLED WITH FRESH FLOWERS AND A GENUINE MACKENZIE-CHILDS CAKE TRAY. THERE WAS A TYPED NOTE ATTACHED

* * * * *

It was really horrible of her to literally close the door on Perela.

Kaily unloaded another carefully packed pan and noticed the gorgeous spiraled carrots Perela added for garnish. Was

COMING SOON skymediaco.co

Perela trying to get on her good side?

Every pan was neatly labeled. Grudgingly, she had to admit that her sister was talented. That Prance woman was on to something.

Her mother looked on wistfully as she unloaded the soup containers. She kept exclaiming over all the food and singing Perela’s praises.

“Uch. A pity I missed the kids,” she sighed. “You should’ve let them in.”

You’re welcome.

“What are these?” her mother asked, pointing to the watermelon radishes. “Are they even edible?”

She should simply talk to Perela about it, Kaily decided. It was so childish to slam doors when they hadn’t even spoken about it. Maybe the job was a small, side thing? A once-a-week from home type of job?

When her mother was napping, she called Perela. She would clear the air and thank her maturely.

Sheva answered. “Hi, Sheva! Can I speak to your mother?”

“She’s not home,” Sheva told her. “She went out with her new boss. Tziri.” The way that kid said boss made Kaily chuckle.

“Oh?” she prompted.

“Yes. They’re booking tickets now!”

“Tickets?”

“Uh-huh! For China.”

“Really?”

“Yes. To shop for the store.”

A reasonable job, her mother had said.

“Tante Kaily, my mother’s home!”

“Who are you talking to?” Perela’s voice came through, sounding sharp.

“Tante Kaily.”

Perela grabbed the phone.

“Hi, Kaily,” Perela said coldly.

“Hi,” she responded, suddenly drained of goodwill.

“You wanted something?”

“Not anymore. I heard everything I needed to know,” she said, matching Perela’s frost.

“What?”

“Just saying. It’s our mother, and it’s great to hear you’re flying off to China, without even telling me. Who do you think is going to do all your work?”

“It’s only for one week!” Perela cried. “I didn’t take a single day off. How many times did I fill in for you?!”

“Those were important,” Kaily said lamely.

“Who said it’s more important to go on a Shabbaton than to help with parnassah?”

“Don’t play the parnassah card on me!”

“And by the way, I cooked every last luksh for your Yom Tov. Is this the thank you I’m getting?”

“Thank you. By the way, there’s no way both of us can work.”

“So who said it’s you over me?”

Who said?

Kaily hung up, knowing she’d lost. How had this conversation happened? How had she suddenly become the villain?

She trudged downstairs and did the only reasonable thing she could think of. She drafted an email to Mr. Pinkowitz.

Subject: Notice of Resignation.

The premise and promise of chomesh CHAPTER 4 OF 4 A H U V A

G A N T R Y

Yaakov and I had already come to terms with the fact that we needed a larger home. One quiet night, we decided to take one step forward by checking out Zillow.

Immediately, we found a home — right size, right price, right location — that had been on the market for only one single day.

The following day, we had our realtor look into it, and he set up a viewing. The tenant currently living in the apartment agreed to give us ten minutes of viewing time (from 4:05 to 4:15 p.m., to be precise). Ten minutes to make a decision of a lifetime.

We checked out the house (with a bunch of kids in tow, because… 4 p.m.), observed what needed to be updated, crunched the numbers — and took the leap. The house was ours.

Somehow, the expenses associated with a new home were spread over a few months, with many of our larger purchases being completed while we were still in our old home and paying a smaller mortgage.

And then money matters began slipping past normal and into the hazy category of surreal, where everything is so blindingly from Hashem, yet impossible to pin down and clearly see.

One of the incidents that stand out in our memory was the appliance bill. We managed to pay the deposit with

172

The Monsey View

whatever money was coming in at the time, and eventually it was time to pay the balance, which amounted to a few thousand dollars. It was quite a significant bill — but then, suddenly, an insurance check arrived. Our baby was a few weeks old at the time, and this check was my paid family leave. It covered the bill with some $35 to spare.

Next came a furniture bill, which was neatly covered by a work bonus, also with a few dollars to spare. It was the end of the fiscal year, and my employer owed me some money and chose to process it all at this time. But Who was pulling the strings?

Last was the strange story of our dining room chandelier. Immediately before our move, a close family member informed us that they’d be gifting us a beautiful light fixture for our dining room. They instructed us to go to a specific store and choose a statement piece that matched our home and style, and they would send us the money to pay for it. We looked forward to seeing it installed in our home.

The problem was that the chandelier was delivered be-

fore we received the check to pay for it. We ended up laying out the money — the total was $2,100 — and received the gift check a day or two later.

For some reason, the check was stuck into a drawer where it lay around for a few weeks. We kept thinking we’d use it to pay a credit card bill, the mortgage or something else, but somehow, we kept pulling through, and the check stayed peacefully in that drawer. It was great for the imagination, if nothing else.

Then we got a bill — some legal something from the closing of the house. What remained for us to pay was exactly $2,100. That month, this would have been quite a stretch, but we knew where to take the money from. The $2,100 check was hanging around, obviously waiting for just this moment. * * * * *

When we purchased our new home, we borrowed some money to help us get the sale off the ground. Even though these decisions were made responsibly, we looked forward to getting it all paid off.

This is where chomesh turned out to be the greatest blessing. I don’t want to call it a forced savings plan; I am not an insurance agent, and there’s no “savings” involved when the money has been designated as funds meant to go out, and not in.

Nevertheless, there’s something so straightforward and wholesome about putting aside a certain percent of our income every month both to fulfill Hashem’s wishes and to reduce our debt.

Hashem helped us manage our payments like a personal Accountant. In one memorable month, we were scheduled to make a $10,000 payment toward our debt. A large portion came from our chomesh bank account, and the remainder? A check we weren’t expecting at all arrived, of course, just in time. In typical chomesh fashion, it covered the remaining balance plus a hundred dollars to spare.

Is our financial life so comfortable, we hardly have to think about it? No. Challenges remain, large bills still arrive, and giving chomesh is never easy. But we’re grateful to have an Accountant we can count on.

THE END

A FINAL NOTE It’s very possible that these stories happen to everyone, and it’s only because we give chomesh that our eyes are so accustomed to finding the blessing. But even if that’s the case, does that negate these stories?

However we can choose to take this, the fact is that when we rely on Hashem to take care of us, He’s always right there, taking us by the hand.

A conversation with Reb Berish Weber, genealogist extraordinaire

When I call Reb Berish Weber and he informs me that he knows my family well, I am hardly surprised.

“Your father lived in my neighborhood,” he tells me, “and I know your zeide from shul. Your father-in-law lives a few blocks over, and I knew his parents, too.”

Given another five minutes, Rabbi Weber would have sketched my entire family tree, his knowledge far surpassing mine. In my mind, my family tree only stretches as far back as the generations I’ve named my children for. Past that, I turn to my husband for help. He’s far more likely to know who my grandmother’s grandmother was, even if it’s from my side of the family.

Rabbi Weber, however, would be able to tell me from which European hamlet they hailed from, who the rav was at the time, and how many relatives share the same name. Thirty years as a genealogist has given him a broad base and a rich repository of facts of prewar Europe, reaching as far back as a millennium.

A GROWING INTEREST Rabbi Weber’s interest in genealogy began with a fascination with history.

At nine years of age, Rabbi Weber read the entirety of Nach with the Yiddish translation, encountering his first cast of historical characters. As a bochur, he was (and remains still) a voracious reader, consuming books and seforim relating to history, genealogy and gedolim.

“Baruch Hashem, I have a good working memory, and when I read something, it sticks,” Rabbi Weber says. “Over the years, I’ve amassed a huge internal database of the most random facts and statistics of many towns in Europe, all the way back to the era of Rashi.”

What made this little hobby grow into a calling? The desire to know “not just my own yichus, but yours,” 192

The Monsey View

STUDYING AND RESEARCHING OLD MATERIAL

Rabbi Weber says with a smile. As a kollel yungerman, Rabbi Weber would devote a day or two every zman to his new avoca-

tion. On Asarah B’Teves or Shivah Asar B’Tammuz, Rabbi Weber would head out to local libraries, Xeroxing (remember those?) pages and pages from seforim and books he perused. From one visit to the next, he’d compile copious lists of seforim and books he’d need to reference on his next trip.

The Jewish genealogy world was a small one back then. Rabbi Weber began writing for niche periodicals, spending hours preparing articles. He also sent in numerous letters to editors of local publications following up on articles others wrote, adding new information or clarifications to existing pieces.

WHAT MADE THIS LITTLE HOBBY GROW INTO A CALLING? THE DESIRE TO KNOW “NOT JUST MY OWN YICHUS, BUT YOURS”

WITNESS TO HISTORY Over the years, Rabbi Weber’s expertise in the area of rabbinic genealogy grew. “Most of my clients want to know how they’re einiklach of a specific rebbe or gadol,” he explains. Clients reach out to Rabbi Weber to draw their family tree and a map out their ancestry.

“That’s when the fun begins,” Rabbi Weber says with a grin. “If someone tells me his grandfather’s name, I can tell him which town he hailed from. Most of the war survivors in our community hail from five countries: Slovakia, Hungary, Ukraine, Poland and Romania.

Within these five countries, I can practically sketch out little town by now.”

The bulk of Rabbi Weber’s work is painstaking

research. He begins by taking a detailed family history, compiling a picture of what the clients themselves already know. From there onward, it’s a long road to unraveling the past.

“Genealogy is a painstaking operation, involving tens of individuals, multiple locations, months of work and thousands of pages of documentation,” Rabbi Weber says. “Even if the individ-

ual’s history is fairly well known, gathering all the information is a huge job.”

Rabbi Weber hits his points of contact across Europe, who travel to dozens of government archives, some of them hundreds of miles apart from one another. He furnishes his contacts with lists of documents to copy and email.

Sometimes, the archives are inaccessible. Others can only be unsealed with the help of archivists with whom Rabbi Weber has working relationships. Still, a researcher can arrive at an archive only to be informed that the document they are seeking is no longer there.

Around once a year, Rabbi Weber travels to Europe to nurture those connections and do some legwork himself.

With 30 to 40 projects open at any given moment, each archive trip can yield stacks of pages.

“The archivist can email me thousands of pages, and I’ll go through each one, trying to find a clue,” Rabbi Weber explains. “The pieces of information I’m looking for can often be found in three different countries!”

Finding the link, the common thread among the reams of information, gives Rabbi Weber an adrenaline rush, each little piece of information a stepping stone toward further discoveries.

European batei chaim also serve as invaluable data wellsprings. Rabbi Weber’s contacts will photograph headstones, hundreds of them at once, which produces a veritable sea of information. Each matzeivah is a family tree in and of itself, replete with dates, locations and other references. Rabbi Weber also coordinates with various organizations who’ve undertaken to save crumbing batei chaim from destruction.

When and how to access these cemeteries is a chochmah in and of itself.

UNCOVERED TREASURE OF OLD GENEALOGY SOURCES

tions were originally engraved in black paint, but age and weather has done a number on them, dulling the engravings. Calculating the sun’s rays is important to quality photographs: If the sun shines directly onto the stone, the blinding light will obscure the letters. But if the headstone is in the shadows, the inscriptions won’t either be readable. How the sunlight will hit the gravestones depends on which direction the cemetery faces. Though just miles apart, one beis hachaim’s optimal conditions will be at 8:00 a.m., while the westerly facing one will be photograph-ready only after noon.

Even foliage plays a crucial role.

“Certain cemeteries can’t be photographed in the summer,” Rabbi Weber says, “because the trees shade the headstones, rendering the photos useless.

When it comes to those cemeteries, my contacts will brave the biting European winters to get the information we need.”

But winter can bring its own challenges, with the matzeivos often sinking into the cold, wet earth. If a headstone is face down in the ground, a team of two will gently lift the heavy stone, photograph it, and replace it where it was, since leaving the stone face up will result in further damage.

Ironically, most of Rabbi Weber’s contacts aren’t Jewish, and wouldn’t know how to read the Lashon Hakodesh engravings if you paid them. But they faithfully photograph entire batei chaim, a job that can take days, even months.

“I want to have the entire cemetery laid out on my dining room table,” Rabbi Weber tells them.

OPEN INVESTIGATION Rabbi Weber is something of an information junkie. “I have this obsession with anything related to my field, no matter how remotely,” he confesses. “I can pay for information I have no need for, and happily wade through piles of documents. Research is the ultimate rabbit hole.”

And the books! Rabbi Weber’s insatiable reading habit means he’s constantly plowing through genealogy books, seforim, biographies and autobiographies. His book collection numbers in the thousands, with some of them being notably rare. With the volumes numbering so high, Rabbi Weber is understandably “behind” in his reading.

When I ask where he stores his books, he plays evasive.

After gathering the documents, quo-

tations from seforim, printouts and the like, Rabbi Weber compiles a report, usually in Lashon Hakodesh, though he’s done reports in Yiddish and English as well.

With all that information to sift through, separating the wheat from the chaff is a process that takes a fine eye and a solid grip of history. Even with decades of experience, compiling the final report is daunting. Imagine working on a ten-thousand-piece puzzle with only a hazy idea what the final image looks like. Reports can range from 20 to over 100 pages.

When asked how long a project will take, Rabbi Weber has a quick rejoinder. “Do you know how long it will take to rebuild a house? No, you just have a vague approximation. And that’s before you open a wall and detect a termite infestation in the basement.

So, no, you never really know. It can take weeks, months, and occasionally, years.”

Say the family of one Nochum Klein hailing from a large Ukrainian city wants to dig deeper into their lineage.

A visit (and with Ukraine a developing country, there is no such thing as a quick visit) to the archive can reveal thousands of Kleins, and numerous Nochum Kleins. Rabbi Weber then needs to unspool the thread and determine if the Nochum Klein he is seeking is listed in multiple entries, or is another individual completely. And what if he locates another ten Kleins in the archive, but located in a village six miles to the east?

Is it a brother, cousin, distant relative or just a coincidence? Or is it the same fellow who sought to better his fortunes as he moved from the village to the city?

WHEN ASKED HOW LONG A PROJECT WILL TAKE, RABBI WEBER HAS A QUICK REJOINDER. “DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE TO REBUILD A HOUSE?” 196

Or is it from the city to the village?

And if a family didn’t put roots down in one specific area, locating information can be a challenge, necessitating multiple trips to archives and even more research.

“You can say I’m partially a detective,” Rabbi Weber concedes.

“Maybe I should consider a second career in legal investigation.

Because as long as you don’t know the whole city well, Nochum Klein is a nobody.”

TRUTH SEEKER For Rabbi Weber, genealogy is far more than selling the information he consolidates. It’s about being a lifelong learner, and he often tells clients that they’re doing him a great favor, too. Each client’s project expands his own knowledge. Entire European towns get sketched out in his mind, intimate to him as your knowledge of your own neighborhood.

The farther back Rabbi Weber digs, the easier it becomes. “The vast majority of Ashkenazi Jewry originates from the same hundred families from medieval Germany or France.” Here the historian in Rabbi Weber becomes animated. “Once you go back a hundred years or so, it becomes so much simpler, even if as you climb back, you can count thousands of ancestors.”

So the entire present-day Ashkenazi Jewry began from a gene pool no larger than a nice-sized bungalow colony?

Rabbi Weber smiles. “Turns out that yes, almost all of us are einiklach of the Rashi in some form or another.” In only about five percent of

Ashkenazi Jews will he find a Sefardi grandparent along the line.

If the general public prescribes to the social construct of six degrees of separation — namely, the idea that nearly everyone is at most six social connections away from anyone else — how much closer are Ashkenazi Jews? Strike up a conversation with a stranger at a simcha,

and you might conclude that Ashkenazi Jewry, with its interconnected web of relations, has two degrees of separation at the very most.

Has he ever encountered surprises along the way?

“Sure,” Rabbi Weber says easily. “It comes with the turf. I’m often brought in to confirm a family narrative, but the truth can often be, shall we say, a bit different from what the family expects.”

As a researcher, Rabbi Weber’s foremost fealty is to the truth. And for clients, that can be uncomfortable, and even unforgivable at times.

“With the bulk of my work in rabbinic genealogy, many clients contact me, assuming they are descendants of a specific tzaddik. Many have heard tales and legends about their yichus from the cradle. But what am I to do when I reveal they’re not even related?”

Rabbi Weber will be straight up with the client, asking if he’s sure he’s ready to hear the conclusion, even if it might contradict gen-

STRIKE UP A CONVERSATION WITH A STRANGER AT A SIMCHA, AND YOU MIGHT CONCLUDE THAT ASHKENAZI JEWRY, WITH ITS INTERCONNECTED WEB OF RELATIONS, HAS TWO DEGREES OF SEPARATION AT THE VERY MOST

erations of family lore. Some clients take the news in stride, but others won’t take calls from Rabbi Weber after hearing the tzaddik they thought they’re direct descendants of is a distant relation at best.

“Yichus is extremely personal for some. I tell certain people that I’m not sure they want to talk to me,” he admits.

“It’s better that they don’t know.”

Many families have oral histories passed on for generations, but when Europe burned, much was lost. In some families, the one with only a hazy memory survived, and a vague reference, name-drop or distant story becomes the bedrock of their identities. It’s that part of the job that Rabbi Weber relishes least: telling people that deeply held beliefs about their forebears may be true.

With accuracy being his gold standard, Rabbi Weber can become entangled in sticky situations. “Take the issue of titles,” he says. “If an individual does not have semicha or did not leave any seforim, barring any other information, I don’t add the honorific of hagaon harav.”

That can ruffle feathers. Of course, every Yid is a big tzaddik, but the flowery embellishments irk Rabbi Weber. Discoveries can be painful, such as finding out how a family split when the Neolog (the Reform) broke away from the frum community in the 1870s. In happier cases, families have reached out to newly uncovered relatives across the ocean.

A NATION OF ROOTS Rabbi Weber’s clients span the spectrum of age and affiliation. He’s also gotten phone calls regarding shidduchim, where one side will inquire about the yichus of a prospective individual, though most are not willing to invest the money and effort involving such an enormous project.

Of course, Rabbi Weber has his personal favorite research projects, and unsurprisingly, they are his own. “Whenever I’m asked to research the town my grandparents came from, I take a special pleasure in linking even more people to my family.”

Over the years, the field of genealogy has changed.

“Obviously, the computer has eased my work tremendously,” Rabbi Weber says. “Thirty years ago, I had twenty seforim open in front of me, and I’d handwrite for hours. Access to online archives, and of course, email and Zoom, have simplified the process.”

This simplification has increased accuracy, too. “Prior to the war, many seforim were riddled with inaccuracies. Most of the prewar genealogists relied on their memories. They’d seen something in a book somewhere, some years earlier, and then transcribed it as they recalled it. But then they recorded it wrong, leaving it up to modern-day genealogists to reconcile the errors.”

When rookie genealogists bring mistakes to Rabbi Weber’s attention, he digs around to bridge the gap between multiple versions. It can often be as simple as a misplaced birthdate. Other cases require more sleuthing, but most errors can be resolved. Going back a century earlier can resolve the contradiction, as older primary sources are more reliable. But even Rabbi Weber can

get stuck, as happens in an estimated fifteen percent of cases.

That doesn’t mean today’s genealogists are less error-prone, but as Rabbi Weber points out, “That’s usually because they relied on something they weren’t supposed to rely on. Far from everything Google says is true. And even some primary sources have issues. Over the years, I’ve honed my sixth sense to sniff out which sources are problematic.”

Genealogy, Rabbi Weber stresses, is not about assumptions, but rather facts. Taking a leap of faith (for example, assuming that two people are related or concluding that a son must have joined his father’s profession) can distort a whole story.

DNA testing is a new, fascinating frontier for rabbinic genealogists. The isolation of the Y-DNA — a gene passed only from father to son, mutating slightly only every ten generations — has led to a slew of studies, some of them with fascinating results. This discovery is a boon for anyone wanting to trace their lineage to a previous gadol from father to son. Rabbi Weber has been involved in mapping a specific family, tracing all of them to a famous ancestor. Some didn’t even share the same surname, but they were ben achar ben, as the DNA incontrovertibly proved. Even those without a proper paper trail were able to prove conclusively they were related to this particular branch of the family.

Before advances in DNA had mapped the now-famous kohen gene, an elderly client asked Rabbi Weber to establish if his ancestors were kohanim. This client was a ba’al teshuvah, and his parents had grown up in the United States. All his life

his parents had told him that he was a kohen, but recently he’d begun feeling uncomfortable being called up to duchan.

Rabbi Weber got to work. After some false leads, Rabbi Weber located the matzeivah of this man’s greatuncle (his father’s father’s brother), and the gravestone featured the famous etching of the kohen’s hands, popular among the graves of kohanim in Europe. The man was so moved and so relieved to have recovered his ancestry.

If he could time travel, Rabbi Weber would love to have a chat with genealogists from the past and talk shop. He’s in awe of how much they managed to do with the limited tools at their disposal. Many of these genealogists were tremendous gedolei Yisroel.

Of course, our nation has long had a fascination with anything related to their own families. We travel to far-flung kevarim, longing to daven at the sites where our ancestors are buried, and hang photos of those long gone on the walls of our seforim rooms.

Why this fascination with the past? Perhaps because while we tend to and nurture our own branches, we long to maintain a connection with our roots.

So much of what we do disappears almost instantly: the food gets eaten, the floor gets sticky again, the laundry regenerates at an astounding speed.

But sometimes you invest in a person, a project or a relationship, and you get to see the results of all your time and energy.

A morah, a medical professional, and a non-rebbetzin remember that moment of sublime satisfaction

FOUR WEEKS AND FOREVER

MORAH C.

I had only four weeks to teach him, but the satisfaction would always last

“Every student will succeed,” declared the teacher, inexperienced but idealistic.

The teacher (me) wrote up individualized worksheets, created innovative group work, prepared original activities and achieved my goal of motivating all of my third-grade students.

Except one.

Levi baffled me. It wasn’t just his learning disabilities; he seemed socially out of it, hardly mingling with the other children, speaking in monosyllables, turning in scribbled up papers. I discovered that his parents were immigrants, English their second language, and that Levi had a hard time learning to read. He had made progress in second grade, I was told, but I didn’t really see any sign of that progress.

This goes back to the 1970s, when computers and cell

www.themonseyview.com · 845.600.8484

phones were of the imagined future. But would you believe that “tutors” were also something people weren’t familiar with? Many children who struggled in school just kept struggling. Tutors weren’t readily available, and parents didn’t understand the critical importance of paying for this kind of help. Levi’s parents struggled financially; asking them to hire a tutor was a nonstarter.

As the end of the year approached, I wondered how teachers said goodbye to their students. I had dedicated every waking moment to these precious boys and delighted to watch each of them blossom.

Except for Levi. Of course, I had seen some flickers of success, but I knew they’d be smothered when he faced the challenges of a higher grade level. But I refused to admit failure. Lying in bed at night, I would dream of a longer year. I just needed more time.

One night, the solution lit up my brain.

Voila! The next day, I purposefully strode into the principal’s office: I was going to remain Levi’s teacher, even after the school year officially ended. I would tutor him for free! Didn’t I say I was idealistic?

The principal applauded my plan but added one caveat: She insisted I charge a (minimal) fee. Otherwise, Levi’s parents wouldn’t accord the tutoring sessions the respect they deserved.

Hmm. Interesting. But how do I suggest tutoring and then nominate myself to be the paid tutor?

Simple, said my wise principal. She’d present the proposal and deliver it with all the technicalities worked out.

Since Levi didn’t live far from where I lived, the day camp bus would drop him off at my house, and I’d walk him home after each session. How could his parents refuse this offer?

I held my breath to see how Levi would react. He was shy and cautious at first, but motivated by the prizes and games. His on-and-off cooperation unsettled me. Deep down, he really wanted to help himself, but after a long day in camp, he was tired, and the outdoors beckoned.

Undeterred, I began from the very beginning, literally with the letter A. Shocked to find tremendous gaps in his abilities, gaps I had missed all year, I understood that this had eluded the secondgrade teacher, too. Levi didn’t even know the sounds of some letters! I was amazed to realize how bright he was to have been able to compensate for his deficiencies to such a degree.

But then I learned that Levi’s family was going to the country for August. Help! I had four short weeks to help him catch up on three years of work. Steadily, we plowed on. Levi felt great as he covered ground in the Level A and B readers and tasted success. But we had barely completed the first-grade curriculum by the last day we spent together. Desperate to see my plan actualized, I presented Levi’s mother with outlines, schedules and sheets, along with my pleas that she finish the job. I also gave her self-addressed stamped envelopes to send the completed work to me, with promises to mail prizes back.

But silence reigned. My mailbox remained empty. I couldn’t reach Levi’s mother (no cell phones then), and when the family returned home, his mother defended her-

self by explaining that she couldn’t pressure Levi during the only season he enjoyed in his life. Dejectedly, I called my principal to update her. I had invested so much and hoped to wave the banner of success; instead, I suffered a crushing defeat. I carried this ache with me as I prepared for the new year.

After I dismissed my new class on the first day of school, I noticed the principal excitedly heading toward me.

Because Levi felt like a success, she suggested, his positive selfimage automatically made him join the gang. And that called for a celebration “You won’t believe what I saw,” she said. “It crowns your efforts with success!”

She told me that her heart sang when she saw Levi in the middle — yes, right in the center — of a group of boys having an animated conversation. Because Levi felt like a success, she suggested, his positive self-image automatically made him join the gang. And that called for a celebration, despite the fact that he lagged behind his class’s reading level.

A week later, the principal approached me again, handing me a copy of a paragraph Levi had written for an assignment (I still have it in my files). Though definitely not on a fourth-grade level, it was still a great attempt. Those four weeks of basics had given Levi wings to fly. And he kept soaring.

Soon Hashem, in His infinite goodness, sent me more chizuk. In an interesting turn of events, my husband became Levi’s English teacher in ninth grade. I knew Levi was doing well, but to hear it firsthand from my husband gave me tremendous satisfaction. He filled me in on how Levi was a delightful, well-liked, confident boy, and doing very well in his studies too.

(He still didn’t spell well, but who cared?)

When it comes to doing teshuvah, Hashem says, “Open your heart as tiny as the eye of the needle, and I will open it as wide as a hall.” With my student Levi, I saw that this also holds true for opening someone’s mind. *All names, including the author’s, and identifying details were changed to protect the student’s privacy.

THE HARD ROAD TO HEALING

TALI EDELSTEIN

The satisfaction gives me the strength to go on

A tremendous amount of work goes into every nonprofit.

I always knew it, but there’s a world of a difference between knowing something and experiencing it.

When I started my organization, Chavalim Sheli, six years ago, I didn’t really know what I was getting into. What I did know was that it was so hard to struggle with a difficult medical condition, called hyperemesis gravidarum, that even doctors didn’t quite know how to treat. Once I started researching my condition, and discovered that, actually, there were ways to treat it (although not cure it, unfortunately), I felt a burning drive to share this information with other women. So many women were suffering, and here was information that was actually helpful, that could actually make a difference.

First, I started writing.

I poured my research into Word documents and emails, organizing the information into clear, easy-to-understand instructions. Then I started sharing the information with other women who were suffering from HG. Over the last few years, what began as simply research has changed and grown and morphed into something wonderful. We have a website full of information and support.

The organization has a name and a clear goal: Empowering Women with HG. We run events, and this winter, with Hashem’s help, we’re launching our first in-person support groups, where each group 216

The Monsey View

February 12, 2025

www.themonseyview.com · 845.600.8484

is run by a professional who also has personal experience with this condition.

The work is endless. Every time we move forward, we realize how much more there is still to do. Patient support, doctor education, financial and practical assistance for families affected, and so much more. It yawns before me like an empty, gaping hole so that no matter how much I do, I feel like I’ve barely started.

Sometimes I get so, so tired and overwhelmed.

And then I get an email. Or a phone call. Someone reaches out to tell me how I saved their life. Saved their family.

They tell me how alone they felt, how no one believed how much they were suffering, until they found me or my organization. And there it was, in black and white: They have a condition. A real condition.

With a name. And with treatment options. Wow! What a game-changer.

And for that moment, the chasm, the gaping hole of endless need, fades. For that slice of time, my breathing slows, I close my eyes, and feel gratitude to Hakadosh Baruch Hu for giving me the zechus of doing this work. It’s that moment that shows me why I’m doing all this and working so hard — and it’s that moment that gives me the strength to go on.

TOTAL RELIANCE

I didn’t realize what I was getting myself into — or how much I would get out of it

I didn’t know what I was getting into when I posted that flyer. If I had, I never would have started the project. And if I were negotiating a contract for it, I’d have demanded a fortune for the time, energy and skill the project required. But Hashem knew what He was doing, pushing me to dive in — something totally out of character for me — because He wanted me to teach Shaar Habitachon in a highly accessible way.

For six months straight, I wrote, recorded and produced a daily recording, sharing them with over 1,000 women.

Each 90-second segment covered a piece of Shaar Habitachon, allowing women to complete the entire shaar in half a year.

It was a slog. Bulk-creation didn’t work, so every night, after the kids were in bed, I’d sit at my computer with my Chovos Halevavos. I’d review the next concept, write a script, record it, and upload everything to be sent out the next morning.

Why did I do this to myself? The answer is simple: I went through rough times, and the only thing that soothed my soul was learning Shaar Habitachon. Self-care, meditation and logic didn’t help. I expected the shaar to be all emotion and feel-good vibes; that’s how bitachon had always been framed to me. But instead, I found a comforting, rational logic that showed me why I could give it all over to Hashem. It even addressed my resistance: why it felt too hard, too scary, too risky. Shaar Habitachon held my hand and guided me out of the dense woods of my mind.

If I had such a misconception of bitachon, and learning it was so transformative, I knew others could benefit too. I felt compelled to share it with women like me — non-rebbetzin types. Three years later, I still get emails from women thanking me for the impact the series has had on their lives.

One woman said it helped her return to Yiddishkeit and reconnect with Hashem. Another shared that it gave her the clarity to manage the responsibilities that come with a large family.

Yet another wrote that it helped her cope with the unpredictability of her mentally ill mother. The satisfaction that comes from such feedback is deeply meaningful.

More than anything this series has done for others is what it’s done for me. Teaching requires you to understand concepts deeply in order to give them over clearly. Teaching Shaar Habitachon brought me to places within myself and my connection to Hashem I’d only dreamed of — places I thought were reserved for rebbetzins. The process was exhausting — and so worth it.

Even if the project had only benefited me, it would have been worth the effort. Every single day, it continues to give back.

Don’t judge a book by its cover, they say, but shouldn’t you judge fresh produce by its peel and color? Or perhaps they should be judged by their texture, smell or size?

While you don’t quite need a diamond loupe, there actually is an art to ascertaining what’s going on beneath the peel. Here’s a quick guide to picking your fruit to produce perfection.

The fruit is a little different when it comes to checking Rundown Every for ripeness (see table for reference). If you know the on the general rules, though, you’re ready to start picking your You’ll use all of your five senses except taste, as Ripeness gems. sight, touch, smell, and sound can all help you figure out Factor how delicious that fruit will actually taste.

C o u nt o n C o

A fruit that’s ripe, fresh and delicious generally isn’t shy about its color and proudly shows off its deep hues. Whether it’s a bright red apple, a perfectly yellow peach, or lusciously green grapes, checking the color is your first sign of ripeness and taste.

lor

Make sure you know what color every fruit variety should be when ripe. A Bartlett pear should be greenish-yellow when ripe, while a Bosc pear should be russet brown. Once you know which color to look for, go ahead and judge that fruit by its color.

Color tip for uncut watermelon: Look for a watermelon that has a creamy yellow spot on its underside, without any white. That yellow area, called the “field spot,” tells you it’s been lying out in the field for a while, ripening in the sun.

Every rule needs a good exception, so here’s one: The best pomegranate in the bunch isn’t always the reddest, as the pomegranate’s white pith protects the arils inside. Even if you’re looking at a beat-up pomegranate, it might still be delicious inside.

e v e i l e B o T t I e Se

It

Color isn’t the only way to use sight to pick fruit. Look for other signs that the fruit is perfectly ripe, like a natural shine on the skin of your apples.

Surprisingly, if you see cracks in the skin of your pomegranate or fig, that’s a great sign! It shows that the fruit is so full of sweetness that it can’t hold it all in. But if you see wrinkles on the skin of peaches or mangoes, don’t touch them. They’ve already passed their ripest stage to overripeness.

And then there’s the simplest sight test: size. If your fruit is too big for its variety, chances are it isn’t too sweet. To find sweet fruit, choose ones that are averagesized for that particular fruit.

Re a l

Okay, so there is a reason fruit needs to be handled by so many hands, because the texture of your fruit really does tell you how ripe it is.

So go ahead, squeeze your peaches and plums. What you’re looking for is a slight give when you apply gentle pressure.

Don’t just squeeze anywhere, though. For pears, you’ll want to squeeze near the stem to check if that area yields to your pressure. But for avocados, which ripen from the stem down, it’s not enough to check near the stem. Press the opposite side to make sure your fruit has completed the ripening process.

You can also apply your squeezing powers to your cantaloupes. Press the blossom end (that’s the side opposite the stem) with your thumb, and check for a slight give.

H e f t I t H e av y When you pick up a fruit in your hand, it should feel heavy and dense for its size. This works best for juicy fruits like citrus fruits and pomegranates, which are full of heavy juice. The heavier it is, the sweeter and juicier the fruit inside.

Sweetness to Smell Sight and touch are just two of your senses that can give you clues about when your fruit is ripe. Smell is another reliable indicator that can tell you whether you’ve picked a good one.

When stone fruits (peaches, plums and mangoes) are ripe, they have a strong floral smell that you can easily detect. In fact, pros declare that you shouldn’t bother buying a peach that has no scent.

And after you’ve squeezed your cantaloupe, it’s time to smell it. It should have a deep aroma. Picking pineapple will also be much easier when you look for a strong, sweet smell.

But all these rules come with a caveat: If the fruit has been refrigerated, it takes away the scent, so factor that in.

This is a fun one. You’ve probably seen people slapping watermelons and listening for the sound. They’re not crazy or superstitious. The melon thumping test works, if you know what to listen out for. You want to hear a deep hollow sound that sounds like you’ve knocked on a door. You don’t want that melon if the sound that reverberates is similar to a ring. And yes, the test works on other melons, like honeydew and cantaloupe, too.

You’ve picked all your produce at the grocery store. Now, how do you keep it fresh or make sure it gets ripe in time? It’s all in proper storage.

Warm temperatures will make ripening happen faster, while cold temperatures slow down ripening. Any fruit that needs to ripen should be stored warm or at room temperature, and any fruit that needs to be kept fresh should be stored cold, in the refrigerator.

If you want your fruit to ripen even faster, try the paper bag trick. Put the fruit into a brown paper bag and close it. This traps the ethylene gas that fruits release as they ripen, so that the fruit can “breathe in” its ethylene, making it ripen faster.

When you’re in a really big rush to have ripe avocados, you can try the oven trick. Wrap your avocados tightly in silver foil. Then set the oven on 200°, and stick the avocados in for about ten minutes. They should come out perfectly soft. The only downside is that this method will give your avocado a slightly cooked flavor, so use only it if that will work for your recipe or particular need.

When you want your produce to stay super fresh in the fridge, there’s one thing to be wary of: that same ethylene gas that makes fruit ripen. Ethylene can also turn your fruit drawer into mush if there’s too much of this gas in there, so store fruits that emit ethylene separately.

(These include apples, bananas, melons, pears, peaches, nectarines, apricots, avocados and cantaloupes.)

However they’re chosen and wherever they’re stored, what’s most important is for fruit to be enjoyed the way Hashem intended. Make a bracha, and bite in!

For best results, use a drink that’s contrasting in color and flavor to the boba balls. That’s why the drink itself need not be overly sweet; you want to allow for that sweet contrast of the boba.

An interview with Mr. Hershy Fried, founder of Minute Mix

Imagine sipping on a refreshing drink. As you take a gulp, something unexpected happens: A small, round pearl glides up through the straw. You bite into it, and suddenly, a burst of fruity flavor floods your mouth. It’s a delightful surprise, a combination of taste and texture that turns a simple beverage into an adventure.

This is the magic of boba, a fun and playful addition to drinks that has captivated people of all ages.

I had the pleasure of sitting down with Mr. Hershy Fried, the man behind Minute Mix, to learn about boba tea, a drink that’s rapidly gaining popularity in the kosher market.

WHAT IS BOBA? “Boba,” Mr. Fried begins, “is a fun product that makes drinking an experience.”

He then goes on to explain the difference between the two kinds of boba.

“The original tapioca boba is chewy and gummy, and made from tapioca flour. It’s traditionally served with milk tea in the Asian community, where it’s been popular for decades.

“Then there’s popping boba,” Mr. Fried continues, “which is a thin shell filled with juice or flavoring. As you drink, one of these balls comes through the straw, and when you bite into it, it pops, releasing the flavor.”

Boba is typically added to cold drinks, such as iced teas, smoothies or fruity beverages. And since it’s heavier than liquid and settles at the bottom, boba can only be enjoyed with a straw.

THE JOURNEY TO KOSHER BOBA When asked what inspired him to bring boba to the kosher market, Mr. Fried smiles.

“I’m in the food industry, and we market a lot of drinks and related products. At a recent trade show, boba caught my eye. I did some research and found that it’s hugely popular in the non-kosher market. That’s when I decided to take on the challenge of adapting it for kosher consumers.”

It wasn’t a simple process. Most boba is manufactured in Taiwan, and convincing a 260

factory to produce a kosher version of boba required persistence.

“In Taiwan, people have no concept of what kosher means,” he says.

“When you mention kosher, they immediately say, ‘No, no, it’s too complicated.’”

The process began with finding a facility willing to accommodate kosher production. The next step was getting hashgacha for the product. In this case, it was Tarnopol, and they took over the next part of the process in terms of kashrus.

First the team had to make sure the equipment was able to be kashered.

Once that was verified, they sourced kosher ingredients to replace the nonkosher ones. There are many components in boba, including flavorings, and every single one had to meet their standards of kashrus.

Once everything was in place, a Tarnopol mashgiach supervised the kashering of the facility and oversaw the entire production process.

“It involved a lot of work,” Mr. Fried admits. “But baruch Hashem, we made it happen.”

But even once production was underway, there were still lots of logistics that had to fall into place. Shipping from Taiwan to New York by sea takes six to eight weeks. Production also takes time, as does sourcing kosher ingredients. Altogether, each production is about a three-month process from start

THE HISTORY OF BOBA: NOT JUST A BOBA MAASEH Boba, those sweet pearls found in bubble tea, has a history as delightful as its chewy orbs. It all started in Taiwan during the 1980s when tea shops experimented with different drinks that would attract younger customers.

Tapioca pearls, made from cassava starch, were added to iced tea, creating a whimsical drink with a unique texture. The combination was an instant hit, and bubble tea quickly became a Taiwanese staple.

The story of its invention is a bit of a machlokes. Two rival tea shops in Taiwan claim to have been mechadesh bubble tea. The most popular tale credits a product development manager at Chun Shui Tang Tea House, who in 1988 added sweetened tapioca balls to iced tea during a staff meeting. The concoction was a hit among coworkers and soon became a menu staple.

The other contender, Hanlin Tea Room, claims their founder developed the drink after being inspired by white tapioca balls he saw in a local market, and eventually switched to the now-familiar black pearls.

Interestingly, the name “bubble tea” refers not to the pearls, but to the frothy bubbles created when shaking tea with ice. Over time, the drink evolved with fruit flavors, jellies, and — more recently — popping boba added to the tea.

Popping boba, the modern twist on this classic treat, brings its own burst of excitement. Unlike traditional tapioca pearls, popping boba is made using molecular gastronomy techniques (involving molecule interactions among the ingredients) that encases fruity liquid in a thin, gel-like membrane. When bitten, it delivers a literal pop of flavor — a delightful surprise that’s captivated fans worldwide.

Whether chewy or popping, boba has brought a new dimension to the world of drinking. L’chaim!

to finish. This means that the Minute Mix team always has to plan three months ahead and estimate demand, which isn’t easy.

FROM RESTAURANTS TO RETAIL Initially, Minute Mix marketed kosher boba to restaurants and cafes. The introduction of boba was very successful, but then came a stream of requests from people asking where they could buy it for home use. That’s when Minute Mix decided to launch it in retail.

The retail line hit store shelves just a few months ago and was an instant hit.

“We started with a small range of flavors: strawberry, passion fruit, mango and blueberry,” Mr. Fried shares. “Strawberry and passion fruit are the best-sellers. Lychee, my personal favorite, is only available wholesale right now, but we’re working on bringing it to retail soon.”

The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.

“Somehow, people love popping boba. They find it fun and exciting, and appreciate the added element to their drinks.

Some people have even told me it’s therapeutic; the sensation of boba popping in their mouths is relaxing in a way.”

In fact, when the retail line launched, demand was so high that Minute Mix ran out of inventory.

“We only advertised for a week,” Mr. Fried says. “The product sold out so fast, we had to stop advertising because there wasn’t enough inventory to keep up with the demand. It was a good problem to have, but it was still stressful!”

LOOKING AHEAD “A Chabad house in the U.S. called me during the summer,” Mr. Fried says. “They’d heard about kosher boba and wanted to serve it during a Yomim Noraim program.

They specifically requested pomegranate-flavored boba because it tied in with the Yom Tov theme. That call showed me how much potential this product has to connect people in unique ways.”

But Boba isn’t just for drinks.

“We’ve seen people get really creative with it. Some use it in salads, acai bowls, fruit compotes, or as a topping for desserts. It’s not only fun; it’s versatile.”

To help customers experiment, Minute Mix includes recipes with its retail products.

“In restaurants, people are used to getting a ready-made drink,” Mr. Fried explains. “At home, they need ideas, so we’ve worked on providing recipes and suggestions.”

As we wrapped up, I asked Mr. Fried about his vision for the future.

“We’re always looking for new flavors and ideas,” he says.

“There’s no success without risk, but baruch Hashem, this has been an incredible journey. We’ve learned so much along the way.”

If you’re curious about boba and want to try it, it’s sold in kosher supermarkets across New York, New Jersey, Florida, Detroit, and other areas with established kosher communities. Just be prepared: It might sell out before you get there!

With dedication, innovation, and the willingness to take risks, the Minute Mix team has brought a little bit of excitement and fun into the kosher market — one popping boba at a time.

CLARIFYING MISCONC

A heteronym is a pair of words that have the identical spelling, yet two different meanings and pronunciations.

Some common examples: desert, alternate, attribute.

One heteronyms that is commonly mispronounced is bass.

While bass, the fish, is pronounced with a short a, bass, the musical instrument, is pronounced the same as the word base, with a long a. August is another one, with the adjective august (meaning impressive) pronounced awGUST. The word tear is often not treated like a heteronym, with many people using the pronunciation for the version of tears that fall from the eyes across the board, even though the word tear, which means “rip,” should be pronounced with a short e sound: ter.

The Monsey View

The best way of saying

You’re the best

Shani is the best neighbor I could wish for! Now when her dovid’l got a cast, she deserves it!

My cousin took in all my 3 kids when I was off to Florida, she deserves it!

My sister dropped her whole life and came to set up Ari’s Upsherin, she deserves it!

I work 9-5 and run a full household I barely remember my name, I deserve it!

Now offering delicious homemade meals cooked and prepared to your imagination.
