According to tradition, this day we will begin with a festive Breakfast. Colorful painted eggs and sweet cakes are waiting for us on the table. On Friday begin to prepare this meal, then cakes and eggs carry to Church to light them. With this festive Church treat we will mark the end of Lent.

We treat all our friends and neighbors with eggs and cakes. On this day in my country the doors of every house are open. You can go into any house, give its inhabitants an egg and say " Christ is Risen!"In response, you will hear"he is Risen Indeed!"and the owner of the house will treat you with his cakes and eggs.

Easter is one of my favorite holidays. It is warmed by the spring sun and filled with good and pure thoughts. The friendliness and smiles of the people around me. Quiet family dinner with a pleasant conversation. And the day before we had so much fun when the whole family was engaged in painting and decorating eggs! It is really a joyous occasion, bringing together the hearts of the people.
