Send a Jewish friend flowers to celebrate Passover
Passover in 2015 will start on Saturday, the 4th of April and will continue for eight days until Saturday, the 11th of April. Passover is a time to spread happiness in remembrance of emancipation and the exodus of Hebrew slaves from Egypt.
Weeks before the arrival of this religious festival, Jews will begin to beautify, decorate and clean their homes. Passover begins with the serving of a sumptious Seder meal where Passover lamb is served by many Jewish families. As well as matzah, which is unleavened bread, made simply from flour and water and cooked very quickly. They do not eat leaven “chametz” which is anything made from grains that has not been completely cooked within 18 minutes.
Last night of Passover is the “Night Of Lettuce & Flowers”
The night of lettuce and flowers refers to the last night of Passover. In the early afternoon hours, the bachelors in the neighborhood stay in the streets, with a flower in their hand. The single girls stand at the front of their house, dressed in their best clothes and wear gold and silver jewelry. The boys approach the girls and give them the flower. If a girl accepts the flower, it conveys that she is interested in the guy and that he can come home and talk to her parents. The boys, who want to get engaged, send one of the youngsters from the family with a lettuce and flower basket to the girls’ home.
