We celebrated Epiphany on New Year’s Day \u2013 a little bit early as its feast day is next Saturday 6th<\/sup> of January.\u00a0 Our Wise Men have travelled from the back of the church and finally arrive at Bethlehem with their gifts for the Christ Child.\u00a0 Epiphany is the 12th<\/sup> day of Christmas and traditionally a time to pack up the Christmas decorations.\u00a0 The day is also called Three Kings Day or the Twelfth Night.\u00a0 Many cultures have interesting traditions for Epiphany.\u00a0 Christmas Carols are sung for the last time.\u00a0 There are regattas, street parades, river swims and diving into the sea to retrieve a cross thrown by the Bishop.\u00a0 It is also a time to give a yearly blessing of your home with chalk over your front door. \u00a0There are also traditional cakes and we will go with the cake tradition. Last year, or was it the one before, I baked the traditional French cake with a marzipan filling. \u00a0This time I went for the Louisiana Traditional yeast cake decorated with fruit and purple green and yellow icing.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
