Martinmas

We had a big family martinmas celebration this year. We started last night making tissue paper and jar lanterns. We began the day at our local holiday parade and then went home to make a harvest stew and to make bread together. Each person kneaded the bread together and then mad their own roll. After dinner we passed out symbols of the season (pine cones, glass squirrels, wooden apples, etc) to put in our fall bags. Then we lit our lanterns and walked through the neighborhood singing. We ended at a bonfire eating our bread.
