BTW, those bowls ale called in Yiddish 'shissel'. Tzadikim said that shissel is the roshei taivos of Shivisi Hashem Lenegdi Samid, which is also at beginning of the Shulchan Aruch.

I used to "geese negel vasser" at my bed but it would wake my wife up (no not spalshing the water just the sound)

I guess you are fortunate enough that you do not snore. Otherwise your wife would be happy to hear the sound of water heralding the end of the snoring for the night.

Special for the rest of us, the mishna berurah says to wash next to your bed.

If i remember correctly, there are special halachos about washing next to your bed when it can wake someone up (special as in not washing there).Don't rely on me though, ask your local orthodox rabbi.

Very correct that the way I said that was azus panim. I apologize



Buy a bowl at your local 99 cents store.

Also please don't apologize to TZ, it's good for him when someone is an azus panim to him.

Wooh! I'd wear a kaftan before making swipes like that at my brother TZ, man. Better yet, make it a shissel. They are tougher and more protective.

Let's not go there.

To paraphrase my wife:

For half the month I can easily stop you from snoring but during the other half when the only thing I can do is call your name, it takes quite a while to get you to stop

A little more than 99 cents. Nice and big - no spills.
