Easter Cross Bread is a must for Home Travel
A cross is a sweet bread with spices, black Gallen or raisins, and a cross symbol on it. Many regions have a tradition of eating this bread on Jusus good Friday, such as the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, the Caribbean, South Africa, India and Canada. But there are places where this bread is available all year round. In Australia, cross bags are usually sold in supermarkets and bakeries as early as New year or Christmas.
There is a lot of talk about cross bread, and it is more common to say that bread baked and served on Jusus good Friday will not deteriorate throughout the following year. There are rumors that people keep a loaf of bread, because sick people just eat a loaf of bread and get better. Legend has it that sharing a hot cross bag with others ensures that next year`s friendship will remain the same. When they used to say, "give you half, give me half, and we have the same friendship", which sounds a little like the combination of Oreo and friends? Others say that taking a hot cross to the sea can prevent a disaster from happening. Hang a hot cross in the kitchen, there won`t be a fire at home, and make sure the toast is great anyway it`s a bag in your hands.

The first Bunny or the first Egg-the Easter Bunny and the Egg Story
The Easter Bunny is one of the Easter symbols. It takes the form of a bunny who presents gifts to children on Easter. It stems from Western European culture and is usually seen as a hare rather than a rabbit. In the eastern half of Europe mainland, such as Hungary, also has a long history. As a prolific rabbit, it symbolizes the revival of spring and the birth of new life. The rabbit is the pet of Aphrodite, and the candle guide of Horta, the goddess of Germanic earth. So the bunny is an emissary who sends Easter eggs to the children. Some families take part in the celebration not because they believe it exists, but as a tradition, or as fun.
Easter has many traditional celebrations, of which the search for eggs in the grass is one of the most typical. In the past, eggs were often given the moral of having many children and grandchildren because it was a symbol of new life. Later Christians gave eggs a new meaning, thinking it was a symbol of Jusus`s tomb, from which future life was born. Easter eggs are often dyed red, representing the blood left by Jusus at the time of the crucifixion, but also symbolizing the joy of resurrection. There is also an ancient custom of giving cooked eggs to street children for games. They will roll the eggs down the hillside, and whoever ends up breaking will win, and all the eggs will be his own. Adults often tell children that Easter eggs are laid by bunnies and hide them in the garden for children to play egg hunting.
Churches, Seafood and fundraising-Australia`s Easter Customs
We should understand how Australians spend Easter since they want to go home and do what they do. For traditional religious people, Easter is an important festival in the Christian world, naturally going to church to sing carols to celebrate the resurrection of Jusus. On Jusus good Friday, or Good Friday, Christians can`t eat red meat in honor of Jusus`s suffering. Instead, they usually eat fish and other seafood. The Sydney fish market aims to cater to consumers` habits by offering customers a lot of convenience to buy seafood on this day, such as buying large quantities of fresh seafood, extending business hours, and so on.

Suppose the year required is Y year, minus 1900 from Y, and the difference is N.
Using 19 as divisor to remove N, the remainder is recorded as A.
Use 4 as divisor to remove N, regardless of the remainder, and write the quotient Q.
Remove 7A1 with 19 and write the quotient B, regardless of the remainder.
The 11A 4 B was removed with 29, and the remainder was denoted as M.
The N Q 31 mm was removed with 7, and the remainder was recorded as W.
