Get the emurdergency mug.A place where chametz (and non-Passover dishes) are stored during Passover.
Jewish law requires Jewish people to refrain from ownership of chametz during Passover. Chametz owned by a Jew before Passover may be kept for use after Passover if it is sold to a gentile. If so, it may remain in the Jew's dwelling if stored out of sight.
In some homes, the area the owner has designated for storage looks like a monster mouth, hence the name "chametz monster."

Get the chametz monster mug.An ancient Persian game combining elements of checkers and chess.
Uses board of checkers/chess and checkers pieces.
Set-up is like checkers, except each player sets up pieces on opposite-colored spaces.
Regular moves are made diagonally like in regular checkers.
Capturing is done by moving one's piece in a straight line two spaces in which there is an opponent's piece in the space between. Pieces that are not queens or kings can only capture by moving forward.
A piece that reaches the opposite end does not become a king. It becomes a queen, and it can move diagnolly (without capturing) a single space in any direction, and it can capture by moving either forward or laterally.
A queen that returns to the player's own end safely becomes a king. A king can move diagnolly any number of spaces in a single direction on a single move (without capturing), and can capture by moving in any direction.
All types of pieces may capture multiple opponent's pieces on a single move if possible given their abilities described above.
Winner is last player with a legal move.
