twistin sandy's blog

wherein you will find ramblings about fiber dyeing, spinning, knitting,... and photos (sometimes), family and friend updates, rants when i need to, lack of upper case letters, weird punctuation and freedom of expression (especially mine)! To answer the question of where did it come from... this "twisted mom/twisted sandy" thing. ...during the 90's a group of my spinning students became spinning friends, which morphed into Twisted Sisters, which evolved into calling me the Twisted Mom.

Easter in Greece

we are going into Easter weekend here... the biggest celebration of the year. Looks to be 3 days

and nights of religious rituals, including a bonfire to burn Judas in effigy, a candle-lit procession through the village, fireworks... and then on Sunday is a lamb roast!

this is likely the last post til i'm back home at dome central next week. i'll put up more photos and descriptions then.

I fell into this website because I was looking up information about Greek easter...I don't know if you remember me, but we met in 2005 at Dourakis Winery and realized we both knew Deb Lippoldt. You are back in Crete?!? I am living in Chania now...get in touch...I think I owe you dinner! You can find me here: thekristydave.com.
Kalo Paska!
