Taking challos to the host's house

Question

I saw in one of your previous responses that if a woman bakes the amount of bread that requires separation of the Challah, and then gives some of that bread to others, she does not recite the blessing over the separation of the Challah. What is the law when a woman bakes a large quantity of bread, some of it she leavs at home and some she takes with her to her parents' house when she visits, and neither of the two parts has the amount that would require separation of the Challah. Does she have to recite a blessing in this case?

Answer

Dear ...!

Since she also stays at her parents' house and eats the bread she brought there, this is not considered dividing dough among several people. Therefoe, she should recite a blessing over separating the challah.
