In this week’s episode, the topics discussed by Rabbi Braun include:

Areinfirinish cake and egg:

• Must the child actually eat the entire cake and egg used in the Hachnasah L’cheder ceremony, or at least the layers with the pesukim?
• If the egg was not finished that day, may it be eaten the next day, even though a peeled egg left overnight is normally a concern?

Mezuzos when moving out:

• What is the reason for the prohibition to remove one’s mezuzos when moving out of a home? And in what cases is it allowed?
• If the move-in is expected to pay for the meuzuos, may the departing occupant remove them if payment is not made?

Ribon Haolamim on Shabbos:

• The Ribon Haolamim at the end of krias shema she’al hamitah includes a line asking Hashem to cleanse our nefesh, ruach, and neshama from impurities and maladies attached through wrongdoing. May that be recited on Shabbos?
• Can proof be brought from the krias shema she’al hamitah printed in the Rosh Hashanah machzor?

Counting the Omer in middle of Shemoneh Esrei:

• What situations warrant interrupting with speech (or “lamdeini chukecha”) in the middle of Shemoneh Esrei?
• If a person was in the middle of Shemoneh Esrei and mistakenly said the bracha on Sefiras Haomer upon hearing it from the chazzan, should he continue with the actual sefirah to prevent a bracha l’vatalah?

Shortening a booked service:

• If someone booked a cleaning lady for three hours but now only needs two, is it halachically problematic to shorten the booking?
