FYI: In Medieval Europe, Christians would abstain from eating eggs and meat during Lent. Eggs laid during that time were often boiled to preserve them and were given as Easter gifts to children and servants. Some traditions claim the Easter egg is symbolic of the resurrection of Jesus, with the shell of the egg representing the sealed tomb and cracking the shell representing the Resurrection. Christians in the Middle East and in Greece painted eggs bright red to symbolize the blood of Christ. Wish a doctor Happy Easter with a card featuring a cross with a blue cloth and white doves on a flowered background. Original design by Laurie Schneider, elements by Digital Designs by Elena, Diana's Creations.
