    1. Title: Smelling instead of Arbes

      What does one do when the Shabbos for a shalom zachor is Yom Kippur? One obviously cannot serve the arbes and the other foods. An answer to this appeared in “Ohr Somayach, Ask the Rabbi”, issue 267, and it stated that one makes a “besamim shalom zachor”. Instead of the foods, the parents of the new born boy set out various items for smelling and the participants say the appropriate berachos over these items. Incidentally, this is a good opportunity to help arrive at one’s 100 berachos on that Yom Kippur. (see: Mishnah Berurah 46:14)
