Mimona !

The Mimona is a Moroccan tradition which includes loads of cakes , Morroccan tea & pancakes.They  say that the name Mimouna derives from the Arabic word for “wealth” and “good luck,” or the Hebrew word “emuna” (faith) or “ma’amin” (believe).

this is how i dressed before wearing the gown, 
my lipstick was that of Mac for all of you asking.
My Leopard Necklace is from misscinderella.co.uk

my Maxi dress was from www.missguided.co.uk , (WHICH I ADORE! its really light in the hot weather which is perfect for summer )

(my mothers uncle Rafi, who owns the most incredible moroccan antique shop in jaffa)

it is custom to throw sort of open house parties to visitors, after setting out a lavish spread of traditional holiday cakes and sweetmeats. One of the holiday favorites is Mofleta. Which is the sweet pancake. (which can be seen above)

The table is also laid with various symbols of luck and fertility, with an emphasis on the number "5," such as five pieces of gold jewelry or five beans arranged on a leaf of pastry. It is also custom to wear moroccan outfits as can be seen above.

I thought this tradition was a lot of fun and a real cultural experience. 

Whats your tradition?
