Christmas time in CR started basically at the end of October. Why? Because shops begin selling Christmas decorations etc.. The biggest "madness" is one or two weeks before Christmas Eve. A few days before Christmas Eve people sells a traditional Christmas food - carp. And of course mothers/grandmothers usually bake cookies.
Christmas Eve:
Every family celebrate Christmas Eve differently. Someone is at home for all day, someone visits your loves ones, someone does traditional habits (for example cut apples, decorating Christmas tree). Mothres after that cooked Christmas dinner which should begin at sunrise the first star. After dinner usually comes "Ježíšek" with presents.
25th and 26th December:
People or families usually visits your friends/love ones. Together talks about all year and eat cookies. Some people goes to the moutains where spends rest of the year and celebrate new year.
Christmas habits:
- cuting apples - if is cored in the shape of a cross marked the coming of death. If it is full of worms cored meant to disease and beautiful star meant health and happiness.
- Fish scales are put under the plate that brought a lot of money.
- Above the flame melts a piece of lead and then suddenly poured into water. According to a shape that casting occurs, it is considered what will come.
- Unmarried girls throwing a slipper over his head, if slipper shows to the door marry and leave home, if showing the heel to the door, stay home.
