Thank you for the discussion of Kiddush Levanna at 16:59 mark.
This needs to be publicised because many women have been making the mistake of saying it, based on a misunderstanding of the Rebbe’s directive for women to “participate”, which was also clearly explained.
I have a question for the rav about the section Challah. If we are using it as one challah we almost always cut it with a knife, like any other challah. We did not bake it in sections so that we can pull it apart and have it for six people. We bake it ESPECIALLY IN SECTIONS SO THAT THEY CAN BE PULLED APART AND USED AS LECHEM MISHNA FOR EXTRA OR LATE GUESTS. Often when individual bilkelach are made on one pan, they stick exactly the same amount. (I was also a professional baker and know that for a fact.)
