CHRISTMAS
DURING THE CHRISTMAS EVE DINNER THE "OPLATKE" IS PASSED TO ALL THE
PEOPLE AT THE TABLE. THIS IS A HOST LIKE BREAD IMPRINTED WITH
THE SCENE OF THE LAST SUPPER. WHEN THIS BREAD IS PASSED FROM ONE
PERSON TO ANOTHER EACH PERSON WISHES HEALTH AND HAPPINESS TO THE
RECIPIENT. THIS IS A POLISH CUSTOM.
