Woman: Mom, thanks for the Hanukkah guilt...
Woman (on the phone): You mean gelt, dear.
Woman: That, too!
"I'm sending these since you're not visiting."
hehe, happy hanukah!!! Still remember my mother telling me “you have to study, so why waste your time talking to your old and lonely and miserable mother who devoted her life to you.”
There was a book titled “How to be a Jewish Mother”. The introduction assured the reader that one did not have to be Jewish – or even female – to qualify.

No just guilt because the gelt is only chocolate money.

Tegm — are we really long-lost sisters???!
Maybe not…. my Mom didn’t live to be “old”…though she might have said it….
The real test: Did your Mom say “It’s all right. I like the chicken back” ?
