עוֹד לֹא אָכַלְנוּ
עוֹד לֹא שָׁתִינוּ
יָבֵשׁ לָנוּ בַּגָּרוֹן
הָבוּ לָנוּ מַשְׁקֶה
מִיט אַ בִּיסֶל קאַשקע
אָז נשירה וְנָרֹן
עוֹד לֹא אָכַלְנוּ
עוֹד לֹא שָׁתִינוּ
יָבֵשׁ לָנוּ בַּגָּרוֹן
מוּכָנִים כְּבָר אָנוּ
לֶאֱכוֹל כּוּלָנוּ
וְנׁאמָר בְּתֵיאָבוֹן

The time I was really hungry
Alex
Oh the pain!
I must refrain!
No eating allowed
Amongst the crowd
Today’s the day where where we don’t eat
We sit in shul all day longing to have a treat
We wait for night to break the fast
We hope for dinner to come where we’ll have a blast
Ten more hours, six more hours, The counting never stops
But once dinner comes I’ll have a bagel with lox.
My Brain kinda hurts, as does my stomach
But the end of the day is near where we can eat a nugget.
A time we were really hungry
Isa was watching Youtube in her bed
She was starving because she hadn't been fed
She tried to get up to eat
But she fell back asleep
And she was then presumed dead
I get challa from a store. My grandparents are the one who found the store. The best challa I had was at a Bar MItvah in London
In connection to the various halakhot with regard to breaking bread, especially on Festivals, the Gemara cites another halakha. Rabbi Abba said: And on Shabbat one is obligated to break bread for the meal over two loaves. What is the reason? Because in the Torah portion that discusses gathering manna on Friday for Shabbat, the phrase: “Twice as much bread” (Exodus 16:22) is written. To commemorate this, Shabbat meals are based on two loaves of bread.
Halachot are Jewish Laws determined by "the rabbis".
For a fascinating read about the rabbis' attitudes about food, why two loaves, and which foods should not be eaten because they will give you bad breath, or even worse, intestinal troubles, go to the source above by clicking on the underlined heading, and read through for a while. You won't be disappointed. Add quotes that you find interesting or intriguing here:
I think a blessing has to have the word God or a clear statement directing to God becasue everything is created by God. If a blessing doesn’t have the word God or clearly directing to God than it is not akcnologing that what you are blessing is probably created by God. If a blessing has the word God or is clearly directing to God than it is acknologing that God is there and that what you are blessing is created by by God.
