Hamantashen, and More Hamantashen

The Jewish holiday, Purim, begins this evening.  I took the precaution of ordering some hamantashen from amazon.com, because this year I have no Jewish neighbors to bring me any.  I'm saving them for tonight and tomorrow.
I remember one year when Mom and I received so many hamantashen that we had to put most of them in the freezer; so many that we were still eating them at Chanukkah!

This is probably a dumb question but what is hamantashen? I am not familiar with a lot of Jewish holidays/customs.

Thank!

I changed the word "hamantashen" into a link for anyone who may not know what they are.
And it was certainly not a dumb question.

Fr. Anthony hopes to be back on the air in the near future.  Oh, HOW I'm praying for that to happen! https://franciscanmissionaries.c...
