Easter traditions bring families together
By Emma Palova
EW Emma’s Writings
Lowell, MI-I would like to wish everyone a happy Easter from the EW team. So, you can enjoy it with your family and friends like we do. Our family had to celebrate early, because of our multicultural differences.
We had a great time with Maranda, Jake and Josephine Palova. I even got my weight lifting in by throwing her up and down in my arms. She weighs exactly what I lift, that is 20 pounds.
For our Easter meal we had fried turkey loins with potato salad. Our appetizer featured open-faced sandwiches and classical Walachian salad or fleisch salad.
In the afternoon, we practiced the Czech whipping custom. In turn for whipping, Maranda and I gave shots of plum brandy to the men.
“This is great mom,” said Jake. “Just like at home.”
Well, back in Czech Republic, the big day is Easter Monday. Yet to come. Happy Easter to all.
