Learning about different holiday traditions can be fun and can inspire new ways to celebrate at home. When it comes to traditions for the Jewish holidays, especially food traditions, they vary widely based on where people live. One of my favorite holidays is called the Mimouna, and is associated with the Jews of North Africa. As the week of Passover draws to a close at sundown on the last day, the Mimouna begins. The celebration is all about enjoying the leavened foods that are avoided during Passover, where people have open houses featuring buffets of treats. What could be better than harkening spring by eating cakes, cookies and candies?
These would be fantastic ways to welcome spring.
