Then, Comes PASQUETTA or LUNEDI' di PASQUA (Easter Monday)

While in America everybody is back to work on Monday following Easter Sunday. in Italy they have another holiday called Lunedi' di Pasqua or Pasquetta.



On this day, many Italians head for the fields to picnic and celebrate the arrival of spring. Many families together with friends and relatives feast on frittata (egg omelets) made with wild asparagus,
