In the old days, whenever Armenian guests came visiting to her family home in Newtonville, they would always bring a box of chocolates -- usually Whitman's Chocolates. As Marash Girl has written elsewhere, we kids loved the nuts and would seek them out; thus, we were delighted when an elderly Armenian visitor would ask, ""Bir yumuşağ var mı?" (Is there a soft one?). Were guests to look underneath each chocolate, they would clearly see if there was a soft one, for the bottoms of the soft ones would have been broken in and left for them by us kids!!!
