hey it`s mayday!
back in my day all the girls at my grade school danced around the maypole (flag pole) and gave out may baskets to the boys...so back in the 50`s the girls were dancing around a giant pagan penis symbol and enticing boys with their fertility-what a lovely basket you have...ah the good old days

Colored Eggs!

Fertility symbols in celebration of the spring equinox.
