EASTER BASKET



The Easter basket is the pride and joy of the family. People judge the mistress of the house according to the way her Easter basket looks, what it contains, and how it is decorated.
The basket should be lined with a newly embroidered serviette or with a white napkin. An embroidered serviette should be used to cover the basket.

Very ambitious housewives have two embroidered serviettes - one for lining the basket and one for covering it.
The basket should contain only a sampling of the foods you are going to eat at Eastertime not the entire contents of the refrigerator.
Easter basket should contain traditional Easter dishes such as:
Easter bread; eggs; salt; butter; cheese; horseradish; sausage or ham; and candle.

After priest blesses Easter basket, families go home to share Easter Bread, that is the pride and joy of the family.
