Boston Police “arrested” the Easter Bunny on Friday, saying the rabbit had no permit for its Easter eggs.

Police Capt. John Greland posted a series of tweets Friday afternoon, showing the Easter Bunny’s brush with the law.

The bunny was shown behind the bars of a police cruiser, in a jail cell, and being “paw printed.”

Far from it.

In Hungary, Easter Monday is the peak of the festivity. No more mass, no liturgies, no priests.
Men, boys - males of every age - are wandering around. They pay visits to women, girls. Family members, neighbours, acquaintances of any kind.
Then, "locsolkodás" = sprinkling. Decades ago, it was from buckets:

Today, it is done by different parfumes. Women are stinking on tuesday...

The perpetrators get a painted egg (plus the kids get some money, the adults some drinks; for police the field is white already to harvest).

Here is our Easter table:

ludwigm,

I want to show you something. I said that I own a collection of Psanky eggs. As a teacher of young children, I brought my eggs to class for the children to see. And then, I read them this book.
