Cute Quote: What kind of Jew are you?

On Shabbos, we were discussing the various different minhagim you'll find across the different "sects" of Yidden, come Pesach time.  I was explaining to the kids that the ice cream we had for dessert was not Chometz, but it has kitniyos in it- so even though we can't eat it on Pesach, ספרדים can.

Then one of the kids asked, "What are we?"

At first, I answered "אשכנזים" and then I added that we are also "ליטאים".  To which Bentzi interjected- "Well, we're also somewhat חסידים" (we don't eat Gebroks and we daven נוסח ספרד).

Naftali, listening to the conversation, had one thing to say - "אנחנו טעים"- and he continued to eat his ice cream!

And you know what?  He's right!  No matter if we're ליטאים or חסידים or אשכנזים or ספרדים ...to Hashem, we are all חביבים (which I guess is similar enough to 'yummy')!
