Lenten Eggs

Part of the Eastern European Lenten tradition is eggs decorated in intricate Carpathean and Russian designs, a much more intricate decoration than is common in the West. Parishioners at Saint Michael's Greek Catholic Church make them and sell them along with the Pirohi lunches they serve in their social hall every Friday during Lent. A colorful tradition you don't see in other parts of the country. Here is a closer view of some of the designs.
