This is the closet time you will ever get to deceased loved ones while living. Because of this, divination becomes more potent. Placing the trinkets into the breads and serving it foretells what the future holds for that person. You get the ring, you will be married within the year, a thimble you will be a spinster.

Thanks - I could noodle through the rest of your menu but I had no idea what this was - and I didn't want to google it because I was waiting on you. [yeah, I am a lazy b*tch like that, hee]<br /><br />Now are you going to tell us the history behind this or are you going to force me to actually look it up? 'Cause you know Wikipedia has a site about this. How factual I don't know - but I would rather hear it from you. lol [kidding, kidding I know you must be insanely busy.]<br /><br />So excited for you - can't wait until Sunday! I'll be thinking of you all.SkippyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09479661523059481730noreply@blogger.com
