Reposting: Hamantaschen Again (Video)



Reposting this little video that I created on my iPad a few years ago,  and my drawing program captured the action.  These are hamentaschen, triangular filled cookies eaten on Purim.  The cookies are triangular to represent the three-cornered hat of Haman, the "wicked, wicked man" who plotted to kill all the Jews, but was foiled by Queen Esther, who saved the day. We celebrate this with funny costumes, cookies, and laughter. Reposting this today because Purim started at sundown, and because in the face of yet another "wicked, wicked man," it is good to have a reminder.
