SPECIAL DOUBLE PORTION L'KAVOD SHABBOS KODESH
Halachos for Erev Shabbos Kodesh
1) Food brushes, basters, whisks and similar utensils that are used to apply eggs to dough, fluff egg whites, mix batters or other similar tasks, which are solely used with cold ingredients, may be used in the preparation of both food classes, as long as they are thoroughly washed out with cold or warm water between usages.
2) Also, care must be taken not to leave them sitting in the sink with food particles on them for more than 24 hours. (Psak of Rav Yisroel Yaakov Fisher Zatzal, quoted in Sefer HaKashrus page 52)
Halachos for Shabbos Kodesh
1) Foods that were peeled or grated with peelers and graters which are used solely to prepare Parve foods such as fruits and vegetables, may be eaten together with a meat meal or a dairy meal.
To ensure that they retain their parve status, it is proper to make sure that they are washed and stored separately and not together with meat or dairy dishes and utensils.
2) Here too, the most important thing is to not allow them to be in the sink with wet meat or dairy dishes, that have food particles on them, for more than 24 hours.

Reader's Question:
What's the reason the mothers of the choson and kallah break the plate [at the T'Naim] before the chupah as opposed to the fathers?
Answer:
The minhag to break a dish at the Tena'im is brought in the Pri Megadim (Mishbetzos Zahav) Orach Chaim Siman 560:7 and Mishna Berura 569:9, as a Zecher L'Churban to show that our Simcha is not complete as long as we don't have a Bais Hamikdash.
There are various other symbolic reasons for this quoted in the Seforim.
However, none of the Poskim specifically say that it needs to be done by the mothers, and in fact there are references that point to this having been done by men in years past.
For some reason, the minhag developed into having the mothers do it. |
Our holy sages, the Chazal tell us תנא דבי אליהו כל השונה הלכות בכל יום מובטח לו שהוא בן עולם הבא, שנאמר הליכות עולם לו, אל תקרי הליכות אלא הלכות
- one who studies [at least two] Halachos daily is assured a portion in Olam Haba - the world to come.
