Saint Joseph's Day

On this sunny Sunday we, Westerners, celebrate Saint Joseph's Day. Always held on March 19th, the feast honors Joseph, husband to the virgin Mary.


According to the tradition, the cakes in the picture above are typical of Saint Joseph's Day. Custard cake filling is made with egges, milk, vanilla, lemon and sugar.


Meanwhile, the same seagull that I mentioned in my previous post, is still on  cars' rooftops. This time the seagull hasn't chosen my car :-) 



Have a nice Saint Joseph's feast!

Добрый день Джорджио! Не знала о таком празднике. Пирожные, наверное, очень вкусные. Хорошего понедельника!

Ciao Giorgio, I hope that you spent a great Easter time ;) Next year you definitively have to post the original recipe of neapolitan Pastiera *_*
How is this thing that you're always surronded by seagulls? You should make a reportage about them... Eheheeh!
See you soon!
