March 31, 2004 at 8:36:54p.m. Rule #3 – If you can’t stand Pesach cleaning…sit down. Think about it – why do you have to stand to do all your Pesach prep? You can clean your refrigerator, for instance, just as well if you’re sitting in a chair as you can if you’re standing. Same goes Continue Reading »
