This chat took
place on Sunday, April 16, 2000, the week before Easter. The topic was set
for discussion on remembrances of Easter Past:
Webmaster: Hello
All! Welcome to the SicilianCulture.com chat room. With Easter Sunday
next week, today we are reflecting on the "old days" and how our relatives
use to prepare for Easter. One thing I remember are the Easter Bread
Baskets with the dyed eggs baked in them. They look very difficult to make
but the recipe is in our food
section.
J: Yea, i remember those, and not being able to get into
church on Easter Sunday for all the A&P's
Webmaster: A&P's?
J: Yea, A and P's you know,
just like the supermarket, the catholics whoe only come to church on the
2 major holidays and for the Ashes & Palms!
Webmaster: LOL, yea, i know what you mean, i actually had to walk out
on Palm Sunday... it was packed and i could not breathe, it was so hot in
there, people complaining about the amount of palms they got, etc. (a piece
of catholic trivia for you, those palms that are left over are burned, blessed
and then distributed the following Ash
Wednesday).
J:
Wonderful.
Webmaster: Ok,
let's focus on the subject: What DO YOU remember about the family traditions
(not the religious habits of others).
J: Sorry, i am just a recovering
catholic.
Webmaster:
Gotcha...! Hello Fioro! Welcome to the SicilianCulture.com
Chat room

Webmaster: Well,

-- we were just talking about the Easter egg bread basket too (kinda).
Fioro:
