The croissant

The croissant is a very good pastry from France. The croissant is made of dough layers with butter. Its cooked through the oven and when its ready its eaten with chocolate, butter or jam. Its typically eaten at breakfast. Its bought at bakeries And shops, if you take them at shops they will be less good because they would be cold and stuff but at a bakeries it would be hot, warm and  tasty. Me and my family when we went to paris would always take like 5 croissant and eat it with jam.

Ugandan tradition: Easter

Uganda is a country in the east of Africa, the middle. It is a very religious country, where you should go to church every Sundays. So that is why I chose Easter. We celebrate Easter because me and my family are Christians, so we celebrate the three days after his death on the cross, by crucifixion. EASTER.

On Easter morning, our mom hides chocolate or other objects, round the house, and me & my two sisters would look for them around the house until all of them were collected. We would take pictures of our stash and them get to use them. Later in the day, we would then eat a great big lunch and enjoy it as a family. That would the end of that of our tradition.

Because I get chocolates, enjoy lots of yummy food with my family, hopefully play some games and have a all around good day.

Ramadan

Ramadan is a Tradition in Islam. It lasts for 1 month . It is when you cannot eat or drink all the way from sunrise all the way to sunset . The reason for Ramadan is to feel what all the poor people from around the world are feeling .

In my family we usually celebrate it at sunset .we all gather around at the dinner table and wait for the 4th prayer of the day . And when the prayer starts we have to eat a odd number of dates for example : 1,3, or 5 . And drink something called leben . It is basically a mix between milk and yogurt . After that we have to go pray then we are allowed to eat dinner (iftar) . Then we wake up really early in the morning around 1-1:30 AM and we at a small meal to help keeps us through the fasting day .

Ramadan first started at 600 AD . A man ( a prophet in Islam ) named Muhammad started receiving news from God . That people started to show more forgivness to the people that are poor . A couple of days later god decided to create a month for forgivness . The rules were to not eat from sunrise to sunset and not commit any sins during the month .

Origin,
Halloween is a holiday celebrated each year on October 31. The tradition started with the festival of Samhain, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to scare off ghosts. After a few years, a man named Gregory made November 1 as a time to celebrate the saints in the Samhain tradition. The evening before this day was known as Hallows Eve, and later Halloween. Over time, Halloween changed into a day of activities like trick-or-treating, dressing up in costumes, and making jack-o-lanterns.

How I celebrate,
I celebrate halloween with dressing up in scary costumes, and going from house to house knocking on doors and collecting candy. This tradition is mostly for kids now, and I usually go with my sister and friends. I also decorate my house with pumpkins, scary decorations, and candy. My parents stay at home and give out candy to other kids trick or treating.

Why I like halloween,
I love halloween because I like spending time with my friends and getting candy. I like the spooky theme of the holiday and getting scared by my friends. I also like the seasonal foods like pumpkin pie and pumpkin seeds. I love dressing up in costumes and putting on makeup to look scary.

What is the tradition?

Scones were first made in Scotland in around the year 1500 (about 520 years ago!) but they became part of the Cornish cream tea (a meal in the afternoon with scones, jam, cream and tea). There was and there still is a lot of disagreement between 2 towns (Cornwall and Devon) whether you put the jam or the cream on the scone first. In Cornwall, jam is added first to allow it to sink into the scone and then cream is added on top. But in Devon, cream is spread first to create a barrier between the runny jam and the scone.

How does my family celebrate this this tradition?

This tradition is celebrated in my family. When we visit my grandma she always makes them for us and we eat the scones in the afternoon before dinner. We always put jam first and then the cream but some people would disagree and put it the opposite way.

Why I like this tradition...

I like this tradition because I like food itself and I really like the scones that my grandma makes but I also like the rivalry between the 2 towns and all the dispute between people.

The baguette is a very famous food from France. Everyone in France eats it. Before the baguette was invented, bread was often sold as big balls.

The history : there are multiples theory about why the bagiette was invented but I am just going to talk about the 2 most probable/known.

1.During the construction of the metro in Paris, there were often fights between the workers. However at these times, the workers had knives in their pockets so they could cut the bread which, as said before, came in a boule shape which was hard to cut with just hands. Bakers were then asked to make Bread which could be easily broken down with hands. And so the long baguette was born.
2.To preserve the french economy after WW1. The government said bakers cannot start working before 4 in the morning. But bakers had to start working earlier than that to have time to make and cook the old sphere-shaped bread. However a long-shaped bread takes much less time to make than a ball-shaped one so they could start selling the bread in the morning (the morning is when most baguettes are bought). So every baker started making baguettes.

How the baguette links with me and my family :
Simple, we often eat it because it is good and we are french. I like it with butter spread on it !

The Origin of Wet Monday

The Story of when Wet Monday began when on Easter Monday boys from the countryside sprayed the girls and smacked them with branches of pussy willow (a plant).

How my family celebrates Wet Monday?

On Easter Monday we wake up and take water and wake up everyone in my family by spraying. Then for the whole day we our allowed to spray each other, so at the end of the day our clothes are all wet.

Why I like this tradition?

I like this tradition because you can have fun with spraying people and I love watching people get wet. I also like when we can have a water gun fight.

Sushi is a traditional Japanese food. It was introduced to Japan in the ninth century. It became popular all around the world at the same time as Buddhism spread.

In my family, we eat sushi when all of our family gather around. We also eat it at special occasions  like birthday. But we also eat it when we want to not only in special occasion. When we eat sushi, we usually eat miso soup with it.

I like sushi because everyone in my family likes it and everyone smiles when they eat sushi. Also, we can have many variety of fish on the rice so I can enjoy eating it.
