  1. Easter Lore

    Share Share Post
    Easter is the opening of the holiday season. At Easter some people boil eggs in colouring stuffs and make corkshots of them, out in the fields. Other people take out their eggs to the fields and all the food and boil them in the fields. Our Blessed Lady said to Our Lord when his Passion began "What way shall this world be "This world shall be dark, Mother, as dark as can be, even the stones on the street, they shall all worship me; but on Spy Wedneday great moans I shall make, and on Good Friday my life they will take. But on Easter Sunday great wonders you'll see, you will see the sun and moon dancing in honour of me".
