Do you know why? …….

The first egg is dying on Thursday and why it must be red. I suggest you one of the legends on this occasion.

According to the tradition of the first Easter egg, Mary Magdalene served the eggs of Emperor Tiberius and told him about the resurrection of Christ, and the Emperor said it was impossible, and if so, the hen’s egg he held should become red, and it happened. That’s why the red color for Easter eggs is also a basic one.

    • This egg is placed before the icon of the Holy Mother Virgin to the next Easter. I will return the visit tomorrow, because I’m going to work after a while.

  1. That is really interesting, I didn’t know that about Easter eggs. Mum told us that Easter Eggs should only be eaten on Easter sunday to celebrate life.
    Hot Cross buns eaten on Friday.
    Glad to know others have more meaning to it.
    These NZ supermarkets have Easter eggs and hot cross buns cooked and ready 2 months before Easter arrives.

    • On Friday, we should not eat something cooked with meat and fish. Some people do it for 40 days before Easter. And it’s called fasting. So they cleanse your body. We also prepare or buy a sweet bread that is called a cozonak.

      • That’s very interesting That would make sense. The Anglican Church celerbrates lent. They give up something to try to be a better person. The idea sounds good not sure it works for everyone. Fasting can be healthy if you know how to stay healthy I believe but not a church goer
        It s good to go if you can and enjoy it
