THE HISTORY OF MAH JONGG SNACKS!

The wonderful Faye Scher shared a link from My Jewish Learning – this link took us to “The History of Mah Jongg Snacks” written by “The Nosher” (explained as a “blogging tour of all things Jewish food, recipes, and news, written by Shannon Sarna and other Jewish food lovers.”). If you have been a reader of this blog over the years then you know how important I think snacks are to our beloved game…and I suspect you will all enjoy this article.  Pass the licorice!screen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-52-19-pmscreen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-53-14-pmscreen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-52-56-pmscreen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-53-14-pmscreen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-53-28-pmscreen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-53-48-pmscreen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-54-00-pmscreen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-54-29-pmscreen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-54-18-pmscreen-shot-2017-01-02-at-8-54-29-pmI had to laugh at the last paragraph in the article when Ivy Barsky observes, “food is a kind of fifth player.” So true!!!!
