Martenitsa-an old Bulgarian tradition

Health, Prosperity and Happiness! Santé, Prospérité, Bonheur!

On the 1st of March Bulgarian people celebrate a traditional holiday called Baba Marta (or Grandma Marta in English) and it is related to welcoming the approaching spring. People all over the word meet spring with joy and new hopes, but in Bulgaria it is saved as an ancient tradition.

 

Throughout the world people celebrate the arrival of spring with joy and hope. However, it is only in Bulgaria that this festival is celebrated with the traditions of Antiquity. Bulgarians wear a small special ornament made of red and white yarn on this day, called " Martenisa". we wear it 22th March and some people wear it until they see a stork or the first buds of a tree.

They believe is that if you wear the Martenitsa, Baba Marta will help you, and spring will come more quickly. the 1st of March you exchange Martenitsa with everybody that you know: family, friends, colleagues, acquaintances. When you give them the decoration you wish them everything you want to happen to them during the year. you receive the Martenitsa everyone gives you and you wear them until you see a blossoming tree or a stork. The storks returning from the south and the blossoming trees are the symbols of the coming spring. When you see the first symbol of spring you have to take off your Martenitsa. After that, you hang your Martenitsa on blossoming tree like this one:

You can find the Martenitsa hanging there in the branches as you walk outside.

The Martnitsa became a symbol of peace and love, health and happiness. the white color symbolizes purity and honesty in relationships, and the red color means life, passion, and cordiality in friendship and mutual love.

 

 

Since that time the red and white threads of yarn have come symbolize the strong bond among. Bulgarians around the world. This special national holiday on March 1st reminds us of the values that the Martenitsa has carried down through the centuries.

Thus, every Bulgarian celebrates the coming of spring with this amulet inherited from the ancestors symbolizing the belief that now everything will be better. 

 

Embroidery sweet cake/ Broderie gateau doux

Dear friends,
I would like to present you creator of this amazing cake.

,, Her name is Albena Petrova. She lives in Canada. She has graduated ceramics and glass at the applied arts school in Sofia, put her passion is cookery. When she arrived in Canada , she applied for a pastry making program at the culinary arts school in Montreal. Albena took part in a series of competitions, winning a great many awards and earning recognition for her talent. One of them is Brides Around the World.

 

"In March I was invited to take part in the Brides Around the World project, along with 30 other cake decorators from around the world. We each had to create a cake inspired by a wadding dress from different corners of the planet. We were given free rein to choose whether to make it contemporary or vintage and which part of the world it should come from. I had no hesitation because it was a perfect opportunity for me to make the cake I had wanted to for so long-a cake inspired by Bulgarian embroidery."

 

But why did she choose embroidery for her cake decoration?
''The first reason why I chose to decorate my cake with elements of the traditional Bulgarian national dress was that the embroidery is so beautiful, vivid and varied, with such elaborate stitching. this means it is a real challenge to replicate in sugar dough. the second reason is that I was  myself born in Bulgaria and it gave me such pleasure to be able to present a creation of mine showing the beauty of Bulgarian national tradition.''

Make by Albena Petrova

Albena has created hundreds of cakes in her career but what she remembers most vividly is that:
''The biggest challenge I had was my first big cake which earned me first prize for wedding cakes in Montreal. It was  an Indian wedding cake and was really difficult to make. My inspiration was the Indian sari, but also the architecture of the Taj Mahal, a symbol of once-in-a-lifetime love. I remember I spent two sleepless nights making two of its tiers.''

In making each one of her cakes, Albena invests a huge amount of work, but also gives attention to each and every detail. to see of her work, log onto www.albenacakes.com  ''

Embroidery-my(ma)passion

After a tiring week we need a rest and relaxation. There is nothing better than to go over in the world of embroidery. Embroidery for me is like a form of meditation. In fact, meditation is release of attention from all thoughts and usually focus on something concrete.

"When embroidering, the mind of woman is absolutely focused. Embroidery we are linking reflex hand, knowing this to think what we do. At the same time we have visual perception and at all times observe a figure that has its energy impact on us.''-explains Vladi Vladimirova. She in image consultant, graduated one of the most prestigious institutes in the field-London Image Institute. It is true that needle work takes time, but it gives us a rest, is invaluable for our physical and spiritual condition.

And here is the result rested and happy with the work done I want to introduce you to my new embroidered card which I made on the motif of Bulgarian shevisa.

Thank you for your visit!

Après une semaine fatigante dont nous avons besoin repos et de relaxation. Rien de mieux que  d'aller dans le monde de la broderie. La broderie pour moi est comme une forme de méditation. En fait , la meditation est libération de l’attention de toutes les pensées et de se concentrer généralement sur quelque chose concret.

‘’Lorsque vous brodez, l'esprit de la femme est absolument concentré. Broderie nous relie la main réflexe, sachant cela de penser ce que nous faisons. Cependent, nous avons la perception visuelle et en tout temps observer un chiffre qui a son impact éner gétique sur nous.''-explique Vladi Vladimirova. L'image coonsultant de Vladi Vladimirova, diplomé un des instituts les plus prestigieux dans le domaine-London Institute Image.
Il est vrai que travaux d'aiguille prend du temps, mais il nous donne un repos, est inestimable pour notre condition physique et spirituelle.

Et voici le résultat reposé et heureux du travail accompli, je veux vous présenter ma nouvelle carte brodée que j’ai fait sur les motifs de shevisa bulgare. 
Merci à vous pour votre visite!
