Happy Persian New Year!

Just a few hours to the beginning of the Persian New Year and Spring equinox.
Here is my HaftSeen, a tradition of Ancient Nowruz. Iranian pastries, garlic, candles, a mirror and Sabzeh (the green grass),...

Holy books or books of old Persian poetry...
I wish everyone a very Happy New Year and a wonderful spring! xo

    What an enticing spread! I love seeing traditions from other cultures...those pastries look quite yummy.And, as someone else mentioned, I think the concept of the new year beginning with spring is so fitting!
