How old were you when you had your first heartbreak? (I don’t mean romantically, just experienced an intense sadness)
Come to think of it, my childhood was a series of heartbreaks! I used to take things very seriously. Fortunately, I lightened up a bit in the meantime.

How old were you when you first saw a movie?
I was 17.
How old were you when you pampered a baby for the first time (not yours necessarily)?
How old were you when you first heard about black holes?
Probably relatively young. However I have a vivid memory from high school of my grandfather (an engineer) showing me an article in the newspaper about black holes and writing all kinds of equations on a napkin that went right over my head 😂
Don't remember exact age. It was before the wedding of one of my children. Costume jewelery.
How old were you when you first became aware that you had a particular habit and didn't like it and wanted to work on getting rid of it?
Seminary. My madricha made a comment to me about how she noticed I get angry at things really easily, and seminary is a time of self-reflection and growth and maybe it was something I wanted to think about working on. I took it to heart and really improved a lot by the end of the year. Still a work in progress, I feel like pregnancy hormones set me back, honestly. But working my way back to internal shalom and patience.

How old were you when you first learned to cook?
"Shmoozinator," I'm in awe of you!!! You are amazing!!
You could have easily gotten angry at your madricha's comment, but you didn't, you took her words to heart and worked on your habit. And you are still working on it, you didn't slack off when you finished seminary!!!
Kol hakavod!!! May Hashem Help you further on your journey.
You have my deep awe and admiration.
17. Should I be embarrassed?
I helped my grandmother and lhbd'l my mother when they cooked, peeling, adding ingreds. to food etc. long before I was 17, but from 17 I started cooking whole meals alone.

In 5th grade, I took sewing lessons (on Sundays, not in school) and sewed a vest, a skirt, and a dress that I proudly wore on Shabbos so many times!
