     Si ay un kidúsh en el kal (koza no muy rala), mi marido i mis ijos tornan a kaza medios "bogdeados" por el kugel ke les dan ayá, i no pueden gostar ni un pishiko del pastel de espinaka o de patata, ke estó uzada a aprontar para shabat demanyana.

     If there is a kiddush in the syngogue (something not very rare), my husband and my children take home half-‘bogdeados’ for the kugel that they give us there, and they cannot taste a little fish from the spinach or potatoe pie, which I used to prepare for Shabbat in the morning.

Borrowed from Spanish espinaca.
